still making great music.Thanks man, I haven’t listened to them in a while now. What a treat!
Is he making money on all Mike Honcho jerseys? Does that mean the VolShop partners with Spyre to pay players? How does that work?
I don’t think this is worthy of its own thread. I get a newsletter from some outfit named Front Office Sports. They had an article today with a link to an NIL business. I do not find it surprising that football gets most of the money. However, I do find it real interesting that the SEC is supposedly lagging behind a bunch of other conferences: NIL Industry Insights - OpendorseDon’t know all the details and that article is poorly written. Pretty sure that Beck is making money off the Honcho shirts and CTV sort of alluded to that at the end of an interview I posted above. My understanding is that Spyre can in some cases act as a middle man hooking athletes up with opportunities, dealing with logistics, kind of like an agent. Could be what’s going on here.

I don't know the company who put it out at all, so I can't vouch for the accuracy of it. I don't know how they collected their figures. However I don't think the SEC would ever be that far down in terms of money getting spent.Huh, that is surprising. Maybe the other conferences are trying to play catch up since they know we're rolling in cash?
That makes sense.The company is owned by a friend of ours. He played backup QB at Nebraska back in the day. He majored in Business and his roommate got drafted as a lineman. He talked him into letting him be his agent for endorsements. He did a great job for him and more guys got on board. Was one of the early ones to jump on board with NIL. He just does not have a lot of connections in the Southeast so that is why the midwest schools are getting more of his endorsements. I think this is NIL stuff through his clients because I've read somewhere that the SEC is #1 in NIL thanks to football. Great guy.
