Three beers down after a 6 hour hike. Timing is rough

You gotta do this for me. I’m heading to the bar as soon as my wife appears. So sometime. Soonish. Probably.

I’m not entirely sure what they’re actually getting in total.

I know the rate is different for each player and they handle each deal differently. All of them have agents and use them differently. For example a deal might come through and the player might review and say yea that’s cool or the player might say just send it to my agent.

My point in that is saying the agents are going to swing for the fences

@avs22 what are the lengths of the deals the agents are asking for? Is it like a one season contract, or just appearance by appearance (or ad by ad) or are there multiyear deals being signed?

The one I’m working with is all deal by deal. Fundraising isn’t at the level need for anything more than that

One thing I do suspect and could be wrong but there’s very little in the public domain about this right? Apart from the high-profile stuff like Nigel Pack kind of deals, there’s no deals repository in formation from which someone could build a database and start understanding market averages or anything like that? When Hunter signs with Outback Steakhouse or Lowe’s or whomever, maybe the company might choose to disclose a dollar value in a press release, maybe grouped for all the athletes it’s signed, but there doesn’t have to be disclosure on the other end of the deal? Does the NCAA have reporting requirements?

Overall, it seems to me it would be good if there is some level of transparency.

Don’t 501c’s have public reporting requirements of some kind?

I could be wrong as it’s been a few years since I needed to look at one, but not sure they have to disaggregate to that level. But good point that that’s one potential source for at least something if you’re looking to build a broad view of what’s happening.

A projected draft pick can come back for another year of college? Huh…who knew. /S

Asking for a friend

If one gave to Valiant

Are you allowed to earmark for a specific sport or no

Edit: Nevermind, looks like they just sell merch

But I may dial up a Phelia T

Ugh. Depressed that u Mich can’t contend.

501 has to report income of key employees. But a 501c will employ brand ppl, not athletes, so again lack of underlying facts.

Kind of strange lateral moves for both.

Cryer is from just outside Houston. I’m also guessing that Sampson sold him on being The ManĀ®ļø a la Marcus Sasser.

Yea, it’s just funny. I lump all 3 schools in my head together along with a Pearl led Auburn.

Need to see Baylors roster but feels like Cryer would be the man there too at this point

Georgetown CB
