@apfenny3 and @Brooklyndee have both commented that NIL deals linking a player to a specific school are not allowed. Unless I missed something.

Agree on your second point. Why would anyone sign that agreement? Short sighted, for sure. But I don’t believe your first point is valid. An NIL deal cannot be tied to a school, so the agreement should be invalid and not enforceable. The player should therefore be free to sign other NIL deals.

NIL deals restricting a player to a specific school or based on game performance are not allowed by NIL laws. This being the case, I don’t understand how your scenario is legal and enforceable by THE Foundation. @apfenny3 ?

Yep. And early returns are NIL deals connecting a player to a program are clearly implied, at least it seems to be. How the heck does a school even have a ‘collective’? I read the Florida collective is opening an office in Gainesville. Please. C’mon.

Yes, Pandora’s Box is open. Now what?

I don’t disagree but what legal standard allows limiting player income to a share of university revenue? Do players with a higher market value get more, or does each player receive the same amount? College football programs don’t all earn the same revenues, are the blue-bloods providing higher...

Caspino is marketing his services through the article but he’s correct when saying the athletes need legal representation when negotiating an NIL deal. I’m not surprised to learn some kids have signed bad deals.
