That's crazy! Seems like overnight we went from not being able to help a kid get home for the holidays to paying (some of) them extremely well while also getting a free education.
Will be interesting to see where this takes the rest of the college sports landscape over the next few years.

Now it is in the open.

Honestly just end college sports at this point, let them play in semipro/development leagues

Siena should be dominating the MAAC in NIL because we're the only MAAC program that matters in its region. All the local businesses that sponsor Siena need to be throwing $500 here and $500 there to our best players for deals... players should be making money off running camps and individual workouts for younger players. Get Lia to give cars to our three best players for NIL deals and watch how our recruiting will take off. Major fail by D'Arg that we haven't seemingly been involved in this space.

Deion Sanders just pulled together enough money to get the #1 recruit in country to go play football at Jackson State, crazy times.

The thing is in football a school like that can't even compete for the same national title as Alabama/Michigan/Georgia etc This would be more fascinating if a mid-major (not Gonzaga or A10) could pull it off in basketball.

We should be on that. Can I assume these guys could be in commercials for some companies?

He's hob-nobbing at all the games on the sidelines. He should be making some connections there. If he needs the coach to seal the deal, then fine. Kind of like cold calling and then turn over the warm leads.

Touched on this exact thought in a blog piece many months ago (scroll about half way down the post if it's a tl;dr situation) lastsienaindian.wordpress.com/2021/04/28/siena-the-portal-and-nil-oh-my/

But it starts with athletic department preparedness ahead of July 1 when it started and then being ready to help lead. Also, and this is speculation, but athletic department may not want Carm interfering with the donors which could hurt donations to the department if it goes to NIL instead.

I heard from someone high up at UAlbany that Killings is a great fundraiser and hoop fundraising is way up
