Does that mean a booster, as defined by the NCAA, cannot provide an NIL opportunity for a high school athlete?
    Whats to stop the top recruited QB in the state from taking an advertisement deal after his last game at QB? What they gonna do- kick him out of math class?

    No bc the mhsaa wouldn't be tied to his Ducati on anyway. They may keep him from playing basketball or baseball in the spring.
    Plus, by the time his last game is over I'm guessing he is already committed and weeks away from signing.

    I think the bigger issue is how the ncaa will handle it if a booster of school X provides an NIL opportunity to Joe and then Joe signs with school X, bc that certainly appears to be a recruiting endorsement, which is specifically not allowed by the rule

    You are bringing to light Rankin and Madison when this new evolution is a NATIONAL THING. Coach34 is giving many a heads up on high school football issues as NATIONAL high school football is rained down on Mississippi and the rest of the country. Getting some law and order within the game is going to be problematic when the government, courts, and public has lost respect for the NCAA and State Governing boards. For fellow elite doggers, do you know that the Nevada State Legislature almost passed a resolution against Bishop Gorman High School Football baring all Nevada programs from playing them? Bishop Gorman was almost relegated to play their whole schedule out of State? Buckle up you seat belts, it's going to get crazy.

Committed doesn't mean jack shit anymore. State has been in the SEC to provide wins for the big boys, and for that state gets a check. No more No less. Sorry about the rant but I am pissed at the democrats and all they get away with, kind of like the scummy rebel bears. *************
    hard to argue against this.

    This may have already been posted but - this is crazy and we are just starting NIL:


    Alabama football coach Nick Saban hasn't officially named Bryce Young the Crimson Tide's starting quarterback, and yet Saban says that Young is already approaching $1 million in endorsement deals.

    According to reports, Saban told the Texas High School Coaches Association's convention on Tuesday that Young, a sophomore, is due to make "ungodly numbers."

    While Saban wouldn't divulge the specifics of the deals Young has signed, Saban said the total compensation is "almost seven figures."

    "And it's like, the guy hasn't even played yet," Saban said, according to The Athletic. "But that's because of our brand."

    Asked at SEC media days about Young's potential compensation, Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin said, "That number just blew me away.

    "He's made $1 million, and he hasn't started a game yet? Wow.

    The quote want not just from Kiffin but supposedly from Saban himself.

    "Alabama football coach Nick Saban hasn't officially named Bryce Young the Crimson Tide's starting quarterback, and yet Saban says that Young is already approaching $1 million in endorsement deals."

    I wish I knew who wrote the checks!

    With some of these "amateur" athletes going to make much more $ than me under NIL, scholarships should be based on need and they pay their share or all. Real game changer in more ways than one! Signed 50 plus years season ticket holder and Bulldog Club member. If I wanted to watch pro games I would go to Nashville or maybe Atlanta. Concerned/Hail State!
