Not worth my time to look but I remember that quote as well. Maybe they deleted it.

is NIL involved as part of compensation?
Not NIL, but mcpat will throw in a case or two of white claws.
Maybe I'm not understanding correctly how the NIL arrangements work, but I was thinking that part of the NIL Director's responsibilities would be to act as something of a deal maker where he would actively solicit the "investors" who would be funding the NIL money. If that is the case, then there would be some incentive to pay him a commission on the student earnings that he would bring in.
Yeah I’m very sorry if I’m wrong. Could just be making this up entirely or it could’ve been another thread.
The Slush covers your fiber costs, so when anything weird or funny happens in the GIAsphere you can piss them off with blazing internet speeds. They’ll give you all the IP addresses you need and cover your wages during bans under their Haters Compensation Plan.
Most of the craziness in the cesspool is between 10pm-1am. Is there combat pay by chance? If I have to use a rhetorical Gatlin gun to kill MSU158 and his nonsense, how is that rewarded.
That contentious irritant deserves a more medieval punishment than a quick kill like that - like dumping a vat of boiling tar on him or sending the bloated, diseased body of Bob Nicolls over his ramparts so to speak
Ha ha ha! Have you read or seen Dune? Reminds me of House Harkonnen. Maybe Iowa has a House Nicolls! They control all the corn harvesting in Iowa!
Cael sent out an email yesterday (referenced in @amattaro's previous thread) that addresses the NIL topic and also provides Clay's email address. In case you missed it, here is the language taken directly from Cael's email:

As good a place as any to post this:
The last paragraph is being renamed the Slumlord Bob clause:
Prospects
Finally, the proposal prohibits an NIL entity from engaging in any contact, correspondence or other communication with or providing any benefits to a prospect, potential transfer or any individual associated with them, until the prospect signs a letter of intent, participates in summer activities or practices with the team, or enrolls at the school and attends classes.
exactly how it should have been done, and that will prevent alot of this garbage from happening
Given that it's the NCAA, you are likely correct, but what is your reasoning?
Only applies to school affiliated NIL proposals, as I read it. "Clean room" or "Super Pac" approach seems untouched.
Slumlord Bobby is going to do whatever he wants to do until the NCAA bytchslaps the Hawks' athletic department.
Weren’t the most recent bag deliveries to wrestlers not in the portal?
Buchanan I do not believe was a portal baby. Teener is still a Sun Devil being openly recruited by the slum dude. LL is a Lion with a signed NLI that was offered.
Didn't Slumlord Bob offer Buchanan $25,000 just to fill out an admission application.
"The NCAA will establish a voluntary registration process for NIL service providers (agents, financial advisors, etc.) to serve as a centralized source for providers interested in working with student-athletes."
"entities associated with a school are subject to the same standards as the school"
"proposals would also clearly define an NIL entity for purposes of NCAA rules"
So I will take a wait and see attitude.
Seems to me these definition could be interpreted as limiting student athlete NIL opportunities, and thusly run afoul of the Supreme Court ruling.
My opinion, although framed as helping student athletes, it somewhat smacks of an NCAA $/power grab, as athletic funds controlled by member institutions are likely already feeling the impact of independent NIL operators and organizations.

True, but if the NCAA cloaks themselves in the cloth of protectors against organized crime infiltration or point shaving schemes, I would imagine the courts might accept some infringement on rights "for the greater good and protection of sport".
Maybe, but advanced analytical methods are well-established to detect betting anomalies associated with point shaving. It's handled by legal sports betting without NCAA involvement. And it will only get better with A.I. So the NCAA already gets that protection, basically for free.
As such, I think the Supreme Court might not buy that line of argument. They might see it as an unnecessary restriction to prevent something already detected by an existing means. I would be interested to read details of such an NCAA argument as to how an asserted incremental benefit will be achieved, and how the benefit outweighs costs of the legitimate interests of student athlete NIL.
Athletes who aren’t even in the portal are being recruited. It doesn’t feel like this is going to stop bad actors.Didn't Slumlord Bob offer Buchanan $25,000 just to fill out an admission application.
To get change, the NCAA is going to have to make an example of someone.
Large male was in reference to "portal baby". "House of the canon" means you need to lower your expectations for me.
Can we add parleys on submission in 15 second increments?
If I get a warm up and a stretch in, it’s over…

Imagine more to be announced as Clay has hit the ground running. alb409 on 247 said a lot of brands and sponsors have been trying to work with PSU Wrestling without a go to person (and it's hit or miss if they can reach the wrestler) so imagine there was a lot of work for Clay to do early

Can you recap what happened this summer? I'm lost with this post based on the threads.
