He's supposed to help players learn how to make NIL money from their social media accounts. https://theundefeated.com/features/duquesne-empowers-athl... /

It's a new day, folks. Look for more hires like this at D1 schools.

I think Ohio's deal is for creating stuff that athletes can post on their social media and for branding of the athletics dept in general. The guy at Duquesne is to work with athletes to teach them marketing strategies, etc.

Why couldn’t a college of business offer such a program? Marketing, Business Law, Finance, faculty, etc. There would seem to be all of the components. I would think in this day and age such a program could be of value to the general student population in their careers too; not just athletes.

Because that would be creative thinking.

If O.U. offered this type of a "service" as a "class" ,open to any student, that shouldn't be an issue.

If,however,University faculty or staff provide individual guidance on NIL or similar things,that opens up all kinds of legal issues including conflicts of interest and liability.

Why would a college of business, or rather the faculty within a college of business, have any interest in offering this service? Would these activities count toward either their teaching or departmental service requirements? Is additional funding coming from the university (or other sources) for this service? Are the faculty within said department appropriately licensed to provide this service, and do they possess the necessary skills and experience? I did my doctoral (PhD) research under a brilliant oncologist (MD). If you need treatment for multiple myeloma, he’s your guy. But, if you have a sprained ankle, pulled muscle, or need a bone set, he’d be about as useful as your average Little League coach or Scout Master (and he would tell you as much).

My point is that just because existing university resources (faculty) might seem like they can do this, it does not mean that they should do this

Did a little investigation about my suggesting such an absurd idea of the College of Business being a major player in NIL programs.

CBS Sports columnist Barrett Sallee on May 4 (I didn’t know about this when I mentioned it) reported in a story he composed that Florida State will be offering a program to empower student-athletes to capitalize on name and image. The Apex program, is a multi-tiered program designed to empower student-athletes to capitalize on upcoming name, image and likeness legislation. Quoting FSU Athletics Director David Coburn, “I am extremely proud of the comprehensive nature of the Apex Program. The cornerstone principle from the start of this process was to educate our student athletes, and education plays a central role in every aspect of Apex. We believe we are the only power five school in the nation that will offer two for-credit courses in NIL education. By participating with the FSU College of Business, the Jim Moran College of Entrepreneurship and INFLCR (a content and compliance software company), we will provide a complete educational process from which our student-athletes will benefit immediately and throughout their lives.”
