[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think he does 1 year of NCAA, takes his "sophomore" year off for the Olympics and turns pro assuming he's healthy, etc.. He will then continue to train at UMD though with their coach and his current coach. The deal probably includes full tuition regardless of him running and yes, insane NIL. [/quote]

Again, NIL does not work that way. The school itself does not make a "NIL deal" with you and schools still cannot pay athletes.

NIL typically just means you can take endorsement money from brands as a college athlete, which you were previously prohibited from doing. Similar to how pro athletes can take money from brands in exchange for doing commercials on TV.

Outside NIL deals typically cannot be used as recruiting tools, either.

I’ve seen stories of organized single-university sports booster NIL groups. I’m not certain you’re giving the whole picture by painting it as one star, one industry contract, even if Wilson has NB.[/quote]

Correct, look at what happened at Michigan last year, NIL was mostly responsible for changing a commitment for a huge star - https://heavy.com/sports/college-football/michigan-wolverines/bryce-underwood-nil-deal-money-how-much/ [/quote]
