Fran Fraschilla tweet about missed NIL payments

[Double D]

I'm curious about how often this is happening. I bet a lot.

 

[BrewingFrog]

It will only get worse...

 

[Toad Jones]

Maybe the NIL people feel the performane for the buck isn't what was expected. The NCAA is afraid of law suits so they do nothing but guidelines r needed

Maybe the NIL people feel the bang for the buck isn't what was expected.

Yeah, there’s no way a lot of them are getting the ROI they expected

 

[HFrawg]

Add this to the list of 1000 things that could or will go wrong with NIL.

There are only a few college athletes that are worth it, and half of those are women. The ROI on a football player can't be great.

Payments are made to the players but performance is expected of the team. I would imagine no matter how well the player does, if the team underachieves. The guy making the payments isn’t going to be real thrilled with the return. And less likely to do it the following year without some conditions in place.

When I was 20 a missed NIL payment would have led to cataclysmic consequences in my money situation. Late fees, bounced checks, eviction, repossession….

When I was at TCU, I had to work for spending money. College athletes don't have time to do this. I'm all for giving all athletes a monthly allowance, say $1K. That's enough money for them to do a lot, include fly home for holidays, yet does not suggest to any athlete that they are more or less valuable than anyone else on the team.

They already get this

Exactly. The scholly players in the early 2000s certainly weren't hurtin'...

Totally predictable.

I’m very much a capitalist, but giving this kinda $$$ is not good for college athletics. But I’m old (I’m 50, I’m a man +10!!) and the system has passed me by. I just grab my cold cheap IPA and watch on my big screen at home anymore. As Moose said, absolutely predictable.

 

[Limey Frog]

As I've said before, they need to be paid out of the TV money that their play on the field generates instead of giving it all to coaches, admins, and sports that no one cares about. Mostly the latter.

 

[TopFrog]

Who saw that coming?

Who saw that coming?

Everyone with a brain.

No such thing as a cheap IPA

Are these agreements in writing?

I’m sure there is some buyers remorse and all but like….draft busts get paid too.

would guess it depends on what is in the contract(s)
