It will be interesting with a wrestling RTC compared to other sports

Athletes receiving money from a collective should theoretically see a drastic change, but the athletes receiving money from an RTC have a different standard set by USA Wrestling. You can use the justification that our athletes are receiving money to be a part of the RTC to develop them for international competition. Just last year we had a backup competing internationally until Cooper Flynn replaced our injured 125. SERTC money has never really been "NIL" it's more about the tie in with USA Wrestling - which makes a pay for play loophole seem very easy to exploit.

Regarding Giving Day....I assume SERTC is still the best way to give to

I wonder how rev share changes this in the near future

Yes, as I understand NIL deals would have a clearing house.

Curious about your statement 'different standard set by USA Wrestling'

An RTC isn't a collective it's a program developed by USA Wrestling
