    NILs for Baseball

    He can - you can contact the athlete directly or through his agent. UM cannot facilitate it on your behalf or on behalf of the athlete. For Brashard I went through Coach Dray (his pop warner coach whose team I sponsor) and for Blake I reached out to Javi who reached out to Yoyo.

    NILs for Baseball

    In football, yes, but since it is a big dollar sport, the agents have an incentive. Like Kodiak Cakes doing an NIL with Samson “Pancake” Okunlola. Baseball is a different animal. The agents make zero money of NILs for a few grand over a year. It is typically a service they provide because...

    NILs for Baseball

    Dear God, I try and start a thread to spark interest in doing NILs and these guys are going at it again. On a positive note, Duasso’s edit guy is lights out - he knows how to edit out any references to adidas or UM.

    NILs for Baseball

    NOOO. UM cannot be involved at all. They cannot facilitate it or be involved. Once the agreement is reached, the NIL agreement/terms are reviewed by compliance as are any edits that the student-athlete posts in social media. If they attend events for the sponsor, they cannot wear any UM...

    NILs for Baseball

    Our law firm just did a NIL with Blake Cyr, not huge, but meaningful because these are college baseball players and every little bit helps. His agent, Willie Bosque, is a former Cane player (didn't play much due to a bad shoulder injury). Great guy who told me Miami's NIL game is horrible. He...
