Nonprofit NIL Collectives just took a hit

"Consequently, it is the view of this Office that many organizations that develop paid NIL opportunities for student-athletes are not tax exempt and described in section 501(c)(3) because the private benefits they provide to student-athletes are not incidental both qualitatively and quantitatively to any exempt purpose furthered by that activity."
Texas A&M will not be happy... They were trying to establish a tax-exempt NIL program.

This should not be tax exempt. They should learn the hard lessons of taxation and maybe they will be wiser in some of the causes they support.

For all the supposed under-the-table cash being handed out for decades in the pre-NIL era, I don’t recall a single athlete or donor being arrested or charged with tax evasion, structuring, money laundering, etc.
Always wondered about that.

If I had to bet, I would bet the CCM will be followed if litigated.
But it is not a slam dunk. Most of the cited cases/ruling are distinguishable because they deal with benefits outside what the supported organization does. Goldsboro and Ginsburg are inapposite.
The unaddressed issue is the broader exemption for college athletics. If deductible contributions cannot support acquisition of player rights, then why can they support many other things they support. E.g, fancy facilities or expensive coaches?
I have long doubted whether Congress would tolerate a direct attack on college athletics. This CCM is not consistent with general exemption. But, the area (indeed all of law) is fraught with inconsistencies. It will make for an interesting classroom discussion this fall.

UFtiger, I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on the best way to make an NIL collective tax exempt, if it is even possible.
