Decided to dig deeper into the economic issues raised by NIL. There is NO way for me to get as deep as I want to in this type of format - you guys don't necessarily want a 60-page dissertation on the economics of college athletics, but I did want to touch on some really important points now that massive change seems likely once again.
First and foremost, I can guarantee you that no one at the Oregon athletic department is giving myself or any other local recruiting writer specific information about any "deals"
To admit that the university was a part of the negotiation of an NIL deal would be a clear NCAA violation, most importantly, however, is that to do so would put the university on the hook to match whatever number is being reported in spending on women's NIL deals because that means that the university has set the market and that creates Title IX compliance issues. Anyone who says that they know how much the university is willing to spend on any given player is NOT getting it from anyone associated with the school. If they say they are getting it from the school, they are lying.
