Power Four schools are now paying football players directly. About 75% of rostered players get revenue share, compared with about 29% at other D-I schools. These medians count paid players only. Include everyone and the typical QB drops to $75K. #nil #revenueshare #cfb

A brand's first draft isn't the final word. If a clause is vague or one-sided, you can ask to change it before you sign. After you sign, the written contract is what counts, not what anyone promised you on a call. #nil #deals

A great offer can still be a bad deal. The money and exposure are the pitch. The terms are what you sign: how long it lasts, exclusivity, who owns your content and how you get out. Read all of it before you sign.

Personal, family, and professional connections to a brand can require disclosure, not just paid partnerships. Being upfront about these relationships isn’t just about following FTC guidelines. It’s about building trust with your audience. #nil #disclosure #ftc

Ever wonder how EA Sports puts real college players in its game? That's group licensing: athletes license their NIL together so one company can use all of them at once. It's usually opt-in. Before you join, check for sponsor conflicts and ask how the money is split. #nil

Today, few institutions influence American culture more powerfully than sports. As NIL continues to reshape college athletics, we need a moral counterbalance that helps athletes, families and institutions make decisions grounded in integrity, education and long-term impact.

The easiest answer in NIL is “yes.” The better question is whether the deal still makes sense next week, next month, and next season. Slow down before the opportunity starts making the decision for you.
