NIL Things - All Sports

[Lobot]

I know Leo will probably agree with me but does anyone else feel like UC is behind on this curve of getting a 501c3 set up for NIL?

This is how you have to get transfers and recruits today it seems. Most teams have playing time, facilities and a nice coach, but this is our reality.
GET PAID. If y'all wondered just how much NIL opportunities play into recruiting these days, it took Tanner Holden less than 48 hours from becoming a Buckeye to start taking advantage of his NIL, and he explicitly said it was a key factor in his decision.-- From twitter
I’m excited to announce my partnership with

A big reason why I chose OSU was for opportunities like this! I look forward to raising awareness for local Charities & getting involved in the Columbus community! Visit http://thefoundationohio.com for more info.

From an tOSU forum and something that will be so telling.
"Regardless of how you feel about it, this is the new reality. But the good news is, Ohio State's in a damn good position to take advantage."

Look at the in state competition. They have a big time foundation which is independent of the University. Some deep wallets involved and look at how easy they are making it to give. Ricart Auto is involved. Didn't UC use to have a big time Cincy area auto group involved with the school.

I'm not sure how involved the auto group was with the school but Jeff Wyler was chairman of the board of directors back about 10-15 years or so.

I heard two of the Board speak. Yes, they are interested in first round draft choices staying around, but are going to possible second or third round picks to stay the extra year{s) and get good ( seems it was hinted at equal) money to stay.

Here's a look at who BSB has signed. It's not UC exclusive. There are more companies out there for sure.
