NCAA Meets with Ruiz to discuss NIL deals

[JG14]

Still waiting for a piece where Ruiz is the bad guy.

While Nick and Jimbo are sticking their fingers in each other’s butts, Ruiz is advocating for measures that might keep the sport intact for a few more years.

If you read up Cribby stated that this was what he was referring to in why the negotiations with rashada ended on our end

which makes no sense if Ruiz has nothing to hide

Sounds to me like Rashada was getting demanding.

Lol @ "something to hide."

 

[Hold My Beer]

Lol of course. Let the SEC run wild though

SEC + FSU + Clemson

It's crazy how blatant the NCAA is about propping up certain teams. It's incredibly frustrating.

Yes. It’s just the way it is. Yet you STILL, after all these ******* years, after KNOWING the microscope we are and ALWAYS will be under, you still have the god**** mental midgets on here who think it’s “cool” for Ruiz to blast his business to anyone who will listen.

Maybe something comes of this, maybe it doesn’t. But it’s just all so goddamned unnecessary.

Unrelated but related . . . I haven't kept up with the Rashada thread (it's 164 pages!) but I see his name mentioned here. Can someone tell me what the latest is? What I'm reading here is we're out of it? Is that accurate?

We bowed out allegedly, but I’m sure tires could be kicked down the road. UF is foolish to think he’s locked in come this weekend, and that other schools won’t keep tabs on him once they figure out how much he’s getting.

I'm not arguing with your post because I agree with it. I would prefer silence too. That said, deals with players has to be disclosed to the programs (right?) and to the NCAA (?) and to the IRS so it's not like his tweets alone instigated the limelight. It was going to happen regardless. (But I do not like disclosing deals and establishing a market for what a player is worth, which only makes future negotiations more difficult.)

Rank the schools most likely to have prompted the NCAA to speak with Mr. Ruiz.

I'll go with:

1. Bamma

2/3. uf and fsu

4. Clempson

5. A2M

Of course... Texas AM out here buying everyone but the first people they check out is us, go figure

The state of Texas has different laws. They have more room to push against the ncaa. Fwiw

Lol

the way Ruiz has the NIL deals setup is nothing more than paying someone to market/represent his business. There is no difference in what Ruiz is doing with players and what Aflac is doing with Saban and Primetime.

 

[Rellyrell]

We need to call CIS the new Flavor of Love, b/c it’s like Clock Work w/ The NCAA coming to stick its nose in our biz when we have something going. Sheesh.

 

[UMFarArcher]

Yup and it's why I'm a huge advocate for not letting everyone know all of your business. Ruiz, and the foolish fans egging him on, should've known what would happen if anyone associated with Miami started to become too boastful.

That's the whole point.

It's about Ruiz's BUSINESS. Exposure for his companies. Name, Image, Likeness - a representative for his companies.

That's what all this is about! Publicity! Done right!

As Ruiz said, when his $800,000 deal was made - it got millions of hits! Exactly what he wanted.

The NCAA is stumbling around - not knowing whether to **** or wind their watches - and I'm certain that they certainly wanted to "learn" somewhat about this NIL, how it works, how it should work, what problems one may see, possible solutions, and what the NCAA can do to facilitate a fair system.

Who better to inquire of - than one of the top NIL organizations, run by one of the nation's top attorneys and businessman?

AND - if Miami is doing it right . . . now - Miami is OFF the suspect list!

I'm with @AtlAtty. I'm not sure this is an investigation as much as an inquiry or an interview, perhaps designed to craft rules.

But I'm not concerned. It seems that there are basically no rules so it's pretty hard to violate anything at this juncture.

Correct. I’m confident UM and Ruiz have not violated any rules. My concern is the desire to create rules that will disproportionately impact certain schools over others.

Sounds to me like Rashada was getting demanding.

Lol @ "something to hide."

There's whores in every walk of life - often influenced by parents.

In the end, they usually ***** themselves. (THAT end - and at the conclusion - end.)

It's not just you: Tampons are harder to find — and pricier

Many women say store shelves that once had the menstrual essentials have been sparse for months. When they are available, tampons have been a lot more expensive recently, due in part to inflation.

what would NCAA talking to Ruiz have anything to do with UF's offer for Rashada?

It doesn't.

My point was that we likely ceased pursuit of Rashada because of Rashada's demands.
