Here's the problem I have with these "collectives," aside from the
UEMcGill • 12/12/22 01:20 PM ET
'Nothing', I doubt it. Hopefully not much, is the more reasonable hope
No_Limit_Hokie • 12/12/22 02:11 PM ET
Commonwealth NIL was on pod and said 6% and rest admin costs.**
NokieHokie • 12/12/22 02:01 PM ET
Good question. Email them. Ask.
Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 01:59 PM ET
Ask my brother, Jim Petrine at the Hokie Way.
N2VT2 • 12/13/22 06:49 PM ET
Listen, I'm talking about the universe of these collectives, Will, I'm not
UEMcGill • 12/12/22 02:05 PM ET
I can’t wait for the arrests and the IRS involvement. Gotta be some good
vatechcowpatty • 12/12/22 03:24 PM ET
Understood, thanks.**
Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 02:51 PM ET
I'd argue the NCAA and schools went this direction decades ago and sold
ElbertoHokie • 12/12/22 02:18 PM ET
Good luck with that, ruining college sports**
83Hokie • 12/12/22 11:44 AM ET
God forbid the mostly minority players actually get to earn money
VTreddog • 12/12/22 01:58 PM ET
Stuff like this just divides people.
VTCALS72 • 12/16/22 10:04 AM ET
Changing from being at least somewhat equal to the pro model
83Hokie • 12/12/22 02:08 PM ET
They can’t. **
HokieJamie • 12/12/22 04:56 PM ET
Players are being paid, that’s a pro model
83Hokie • 12/12/22 05:28 PM ET
You do realize there is a rule in place that doesn't allow that right?
VTreddog • 12/12/22 02:41 PM ET
You need to change you username. At first I thought you were Hokie83 who
Femoyer74 • 12/12/22 01:48 PM ET
Me too! Until you pointed it out. Thanks.**
HokiesChemicals • 12/12/22 03:02 PM ET
I need to be really measured in my response here.
Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 01:39 PM ET
The NCAA rule change that allowed one transfer to another school
NC Hoke • 12/13/22 07:19 AM ET
Will - one of your best posts ever! Well said…**
BeachGobbler • 12/12/22 07:54 PM ET
MIC DROP! LOVE IT!!!**
HeisenBurg13 • 12/12/22 02:32 PM ET
I have not been a fan of NIL, but your post is making me reconsider.
win-tech • 12/12/22 02:23 PM ET
Changing minds and hearts, one at a time. **
Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 02:52 PM ET
I’ll be glad to watch and wish them well
83Hokie • 12/12/22 01:48 PM ET
VT's chance at winning a football title sailed long before NIL came along.
Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 01:55 PM ET
Not only many fans opposed to cheating, they also think the "privilege" of

83Hokie • 12/12/22 01:40 PM ET
Lol by everyone…**
Brewing_Hokie • 12/12/22 01:44 PM ET
Those darn kids getting a few bucks if the millions they earn the school
HokieJamie • 12/12/22 12:38 PM ET
None of that money comes from the school.**
HokieJay • 12/12/22 03:51 PM ET
Which also pays for many many other scholarships **
83Hokie • 12/12/22 01:41 PM ET
And that is their problem why, exactly?**
NokieHokie • 12/12/22 01:47 PM ET
Maybe we should just play football then**
83Hokie • 12/12/22 01:49 PM ET

NokieHokie • 12/12/22 01:53 PM ET
Isnt the issue that this money doesnt come from the system? A whole new
JACHokies • 12/12/22 01:07 PM ET
I wouldn't say its a "whole new revenue stream".
804Hokie • 12/12/22 02:29 PM ET

Will StewartAdmin • 12/12/22 01:51 PM ET
I think its the free for all nature of it that is the problem. I wish
goodbadugly • 12/12/22 12:41 PM ET
Nope they lost every court case. They got schooled**
HokieJamie • 12/12/22 12:42 PM ET
And deservedly so!**
NokieHokie • 12/12/22 01:56 PM ET
Ignoring it would truly ruin it. If VT can't compete with the capitalism
BG Hokie • 12/12/22 12:35 PM ET
Bingo VT nor lots of other schools will ever compete
