They are going to get revenue share now.

But most athletes outside of football are going to be pretty disappointed especially as the rich donor side deals go away. I’ve see estimates showing football will likely get 80-85 percent of the revenue pay outs at most larger schools with basketball getting around 10-15 percent (men and women combined). That leaves very little else for the non revenue athletes. I expect to see increasing numbers of non football and hoops teams cut under this set up. If you are a soccer player I’d learn how to kick a football real quick.

Serious Question about NIL(from a snarky and aggravated position)

Athletes can get merch sales revenue if they put out merch with their NIL. **

VT Olym. sports are probably going to get around 5% of the revenue sharing.

Not sure about all sports but VT wrestling should be a net positive

I was saying this months ago.

Because calling it NIL is a facade

Sorry NOTHING is going back, its monetizing everything

Did I suggest something was going back?

Are any schools actually making money off their wrestling program?

Are fan-funded scholarships materially different?

I think meeting the basic funding needs of a program you care about
Hikinghokie 06/12/25 09:21 AM ET
Absolutely a big difference.
Pylons 06/12/25 09:32 AM ET
There has always been an earnings cap which is a big difference**
donjfs3 06/11/25 05:30 PM ET
True. I guess I was more angling at whether it matters that it's
Pylons 06/11/25 06:01 PM ET
Instead of NIL, it should be called P4P (Pay for Play)
EDGEMAN 06/10/25 05:50 PM ET
The recent court ruling moves it from the former to the latter...
