Meanwhile Reggie Bush is sueing USC and the NCAA to essentially be paid NIL back pay.
UNLV QB suddenly quits. Did he not get paid?
- Thread starter BonzoFury
- Start date
Actually, he clarified that it's about playing time. Has continued to get less carries with each game.
Where are you seeing this? The brother talked with a columnist, from what is appears the statement for 100k came if he was the starting QB. A true pay for play situation.
NFL teams don’t worry about players contracts with McDonald’s. Which is what NIL is. NIL isn’t the schools money. That’s why you lose in court.
Sure the schools can all agree to a salary cap and then the players can still go get NIL money because it’s a free country and you have no right to stop a kid appearing in commercials, which is what NIL is.
There is no path where you win in court. Zip zero none.
You might as well blame a stray cat along with the NCAA because both have the same options to stop it. NONE.

People pointed and laughed at us when the Proctor situation unfolded. Anyone with an IQ above 12 knew that it didn't bode well for anyone, as it indicates how players can screw over programs. Now we've reached the next step, where players are now quitting 1/4 through the season to get a shot elsewhere. It's only going to get uglier from here.
NIL is going even worse than I thought it would go and I hated the idea decades ago.
Was it a signed contract? or was is some blowhard assistant speaking out of turn. Never trust a used car salesmen. if you do you have to stick with it
Again, eventually this goes down the path where players become school employees with multi-year contracts. Then they can't just scoot on off whenever they want, but they could go out and secure whatever they can for NIL with their agent.
For Caitlin Clark it worked beautifully. Probably helped some of her teammates as well. The issue is rising stars or ect that think they can get more money elsewhere. You fix the issue of taking a redshirt only for injury performance or with the permission of the head coach. This is currently out of control.
Hmmm. So, the NIL group and the university contend that a STARTING QB transferred to their school without any financial commitment.
That sounds possible. NOT.
The kid attended Holy Cross so he's no dummy and nobody transfers in today's game just because they like the coach or location. They transfer for the cash in most instances even if all the other needs are unmet.
UNLV and their NIL group must think everyone is just plain dumb.

Not sure what the NCAA can do. Every time they try to put rules on NIL in place, the players go to court and win every time.
One of the coaches tweeted (x’d) that Sluka received everything he was promised and he’s trying to renegotiate now that they’re 3-0 and Dad got an agent. Who knows but putting that out there publicly would be ballsy if not true.
UNLV has made a public statement implying that the agent is trying to strong arm them, perhaps illegally.
What a mess. This kid is gonna have a tough time finding a new home and recruiting just got tougher for UNLV.

The agent was signed in January. The head coach also stated any offer not made by him was not a valid offer. It still appears the player was under the assumption he was going to get more.
He will also not have a tough time, the is talk he has a 150k to 300k offer. Whether that is true or not who knows. Would be a college that runs more of option running attack.
