Baseball NIL collective (need feedback)...
Posted on 4/21/26 at 1:15 pm
Posted on 4/21/26 at 1:15 pm
I have an idea for an LSU Baseball collective - providing LSU baseball content (in written form) under a yearly subscription model, with 100% of the money pledged going to LSU Baseball. The program would start with a commitment drive, where subscribers would commit an annual amount based on the subscription levels provided, with a minimum total commitment level needed to proceed. If the total commitment level isn't reached, no harm no foul.
If the commitment level is achieved (hopefully surpassed), the proceeds would be handed over to the baseball program to be used at their discretion. The baseball program, in return, would allow access in order to provide the content, consisting of multiple articles on a weekly basis - Inside baseball stuff.
I will admit I know little about the inner workings of the NIL process, and I look forward to receiving constructive feedback on this idea. Also, please don't hesitate to chime in on the viability of such a plan.
For the admins - there is ZERO profit motive here - I am merely trying to do what I can to help the baseball program.
I have written about the last two championships if you would like to get a idea of the content.

Based off previous articles I have read from you, I believe you truly have a passion for the game! I think this is an awesome setup to generate some funds to offer to our TIGERS- tell me where to sign up!

I don’t post so I don’t have to deal with comments like yours. I’m only here to be positive. This caught my eye- someone wanting to raise funds for our team and gain ZERO dollars for theirselves. How about you be generous enough to do something like so, and I’ll comment on your post as well!

Just to be clear, I am a ways off from asking for commitments. I am looking for constructive feedback (people to shoot holes in the idea) to stress test the idea. The only part I am comfortable with is providing the content.
Open questions:
1. Is there enough interest (obvious 1st question)?
2. How would this work within the NIL framework?
3. Would NILSU need to be involved?
4. More questions
Drizztiger - would you be willing to provide feedback (offline)?

NIL now has to go through NIL GO. What would the baseball players have to do in order to earn the NIL. Pay for play at the moment is dead out side of Rev share.
Any NIl payment more than $600 has to be approved by NCAA for fair market value and legitimate business purposes.
I stress for now... As I don't think if this is challenged in court it would hold up.
So lets say the Friday night starter sits down for 2 hours to sign hats etc. What value would NIL GO place on that? $2500 bucks?

NIL has new framework that requires reporting and I am in no way educated enough to give advice. I generally just write checks and let JimTiger and others make fun of me.

I realize this is pretty thin, but the players who receive the NIL $$ would need to grant some sort of access, which would be the basis for the majority of the content.

Very curious on what value they would assign that, as far as payments to players.

I have reached out to NILSU, but have yet to get a response.
