The school cannot own his Name, Image and Likeness. They may have snuck a clause in about rev share, but that’s kinda useless. Either they pay a player on our team or just waive the white flag.

Like a pro player can go and get an ad deal with a company. The team can’t really enforce that. They own his salary rights per se. But not that portion of it. Like a Falcons player signing an ad deal with Lowe’s. But Blank has ties to Home Depot. Or if Dak did a T Mobile spot, but the Cowboys have ATT all over their building. A school cannot own someone’s right to their name. So we would basically say well instead of $2M in rev share and $5M in NIL. Here’s $7M in NIL.

Schools enter into license agreements with players which grants a school the exclusive rights to use a player's NIL. This is what has been reported with respect to Mensah. He entered into a 2 yr license agreement granting Duke the exclusive right to use his NIL. Duke holds Mensah's NIL rights.

That said, it seems like there might be some momentum behind this. If so that means UM has identified a work-around. The work around might very well entail simply throwing a **** load of money at the situation (which I support) to both buy Mensah out of the his NIL agmt with Duke and pay him a large some of NIL or revenue share money on our end to come to UM.

We're gonna be waiting until mid-January 2027 to see if Mensah goes pro or comes back. We're gonna miss on the top 3-4 portal options. Mensah goes pro. We're on page 690 of the "2027 Portal QBs" thread when it leaks that TJ Finley got another year of eligibility and he's coming to Miami. Close thread. Fire up Portal QBs 2028 thread.
