Subject: Re: NIL COLLECTIVES Author: Ghost [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 15:51:23 03/21/24 Thu In reply to: Football Dad 's message, "Re: NIL COLLECTIVES" on 14:59:34 03/21/24 Thu Sir, you make a valid point but please remember Ivy League schools have 30+, sometimes more, teams. You can't just make it about football, not in this league. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> [> Subject: Re: NIL COLLECTIVES Author: Football Dad [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 16:20:16 03/21/24 Thu I didn't say NIL collectives have to be all about football. They aren't at many, if not most, other schools. My alma mater, for instance, has a collective that contributes funds to players in numerous sports. I know firsthand of a few schools that use NIL payments to supplement partial athletic scholarships in baseball and other equivalency sports to ensure the cost of attendance is covered. It is important to remember that NIL collectives are not established or run by the schools. They are established and run primarily by third-party boosters. There is nothing to stop a group of Ivy School boosters from establishing and running an NIL collective that primarily contributes to football, or for that matter, basketball or any other sport. The truth is you can make it all about football if you want—not that you should. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: NIL COLLECTIVES Author: IvyGuy1988 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 21:44:27 03/21/24 Thu We mainly see Ivy athletes being poached from football and basketball so why can’t the Ivy League focus on those 2 sports for NIL. H P and Y are all expected to lose premier players due to the fact that the athletes simply cannot pass up the financial opportunity to get their academics paid for as well as make extra money from NIL.

[> [> [> [> Subject: Re: NIL COLLECTIVES Author: Lurker [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 23:39:22 03/21/24 Thu If a player receives his degree is it really poaching? Some guys are leaving football programs with 1 year of Ivy eligibility (and 2 overall). But if i am notmistaken they almost all have their degree. And this is the last class impacted by covid. So i think things will go back to 1 year grad transfers for those that dont play as freshmen [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
