I think that since our athletic department does not make a profit, all nil money should go into a general athletic scholarship fund.

De'Montre Tuggle becomes the first Bobcat to get monetary value. And BobcatAttack.com was happy to help make that happen.

I think that because Uber doesn't make a profit, employees and Drivers shouldn't get paid, and all salaries and hourly pay should go into a fund to benefit Uber.

First i was being mildly facetious. But truth be told, Students already earn money for their athletic ability in the form of scholarships, housing and food. The idea that they make more for the university then they get back is bs at about all but 10 schools. Comparing to a corporation doesn't hold water.

In the aggregate. But it's much more common at an individual level.

Let's say Preston comes back next year and his doing so is the difference between Ohio playing 2 games on national TV vs. Ohio playing 7 games on National TV. And the difference between losing in the MAC Championship, and a Sweet 16 run. And he plays his way into the 1st round, is the subject of a dozen feel good, look-how-far-he's-come national media profiles, all of which result in a ton of publicity for the university.

In that scenario you think Jason Preston should have to give all NIL money to the university because in the aggregate OU athletes don't make more for the university that they get back?

I am not up to date on current NCAA policy and the impacts of the changes. But when I think back on the Rick Tellander article in SI many years ago about his experiences at Northwestern. It seemed that all he wanted to do was maybe deliver Pizzas for a little "walking around money". His beef was that he would be in violation of his agreement if he earned any money outside the athletic scholarship.

Seems like guys now have a much bigger safety net to come back to school... Jason wouldn’t get nothing coming back to school...

Is that right? I know several athletes that have "made money outside the athletic scholarship" in many different and mostly legal ways. Is there a stipulation that says they can not make that money? If so, how do they get paid for working camps and other things?

I may be mistaken, I read it a while ago. But I was struck by how Tellander was not able to make money like other students. As a student in the 70s & 80s I worked every odd job I could find when I was in school, it hit home. I remember the “work-study” students had limits on the hours they could work, while I didn’t. When I read Tellander’s article I really felt for the ordinary athletes on scholarships who did not have the same chance to earn as I had. I guess my feeling is that not every athlete is going to get a car with this new rule, but they may have more ability to earn some money.

It's a time issue, not a legal issue.

Raising threads from the dead, and providing no quotes for context as to whom or what they're responding to.

All in a first post.

Congratulations! That's good stuff.
