1.5million now but has probably cost himself as a potential 1st round pick.
I’ll wager he loses money in the long run from this move

How can anyone be mad that these kids are finding a way to get a slice? It’s not as if the university is paying them.
College athletes are well-compensated for voluntarily signing to play football.
Allowing them to be paid (over the table) and transfer without having to sit out a year, effectively has turned the college game into a pro game, with free agency.
It's being destroyed, right before our eyes.

Yeah, it used to be coaches who did that.

None of this should prevent them from being able to get an endorsement. Welcome to capitalism, where we don’t prefer a governing body preventing us from earning a living where it doesn’t hurt anyone.
That said, I’ll be the first to agree that what Texas is doing, essentially creating a fund to play players, is a total abuse of the NIL. Presumably that will be addressed at some point as it’s already made waves.
Yes college football is changing, and NIL needs to be cleaned up (already). But end of the day, this is happening. It’s over. Adapt or die.

This has been happening, just not from players. Coaches and boosters, rather.
