When it shows ~80% as Commercial (sponsors, Brands, Fans) and ~20% as Collective (Donors), does that men that Collectives don't use money from fans and that Donors are not fans? How is fan money considered commercial?

I think that means that 80% of the things that get done for NIL are true uses of it: being a restaurant spokesperson, signing autographs (fan money in this instance), having your name in a football game. Out of these activities, notice that only accounts for 20% of the money paid out.

Essentially, they made the bagman legal.

I'll go further. It's out of whack. If 80% of the money is coming from fan donors, at some point they are going to expect to get closer to 80% of the activities.

No matter how you break it down, the entire NIL enterprise is unethical and down right shameful at the power five level where players are more than fairly compensated through their grant in aid. If NIL money is accepted, the entirety of the grant in aid package (minus the current tax limit or around 15K) should be taxed at the appropriate 28% rate.
