Feels like this list needs to be in every NIL thread to get an idea of what people think athletes are getting paid.

On3 NIL 100

I doubt anyone knows how much athletes are getting paid because agents, boosters, and young men likely exaggerate their earnings, especially the agents to impress future clients.


Thanks for the list. On3 knows its stuff and is probably in the ballpark when it comes to earnings.

Was good enough to be drafted in the first round.

Believe it or not, CFB is still a team sport.

What do your "notes" say about that?

Why not spend the same $$ on the best underclassmen QB at a small school with NFL traits who is already proven?


I’d go this route and spend $$$ on oline and dline. No way would I want that much money tied up with one player. NIL in its current form isn’t sustainable long term.

I also wonder who the first coach is to jump to the P5, take less money, and dedicate the savings to NIL. Would be a good way for an unproven staff to get a crack at a job they otherwise might not be considered for.

Underwood is a pretty solid LSU commit, but Saban was also never leaving Miami, etc, etc.

If he is smart he will go to BR because you will know what to do with him.

Mostly just rumors from Michigan’s side. Not a good look for them to let a highly prized recruit leave the state without at least pretending to put up a fight.

Not as bad as offering a ridiculous amount and not getting him
