This is exactly why businesses want to do these -- and if they can get traction with splashy totals, we all talk about it. I may have heard of Life Wallet prior to this deal, but certainly am more aware of it now as a result. Approaching 5 Million views inside of 24 hours. That's the hard part for some to understand. He's already returned his ROI on views alone. Again like a few on here pointed out yesterday. Billionaire's aren't in the business of losing.....or losing $. They know where the $ is at. For 24 hours the college sports world is trying to figure out who John Ruiz is,etc....for a measly $400k is the cheapest Super Bowl commercial he could ever create. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the holier than thou act on getting caught napping on the NIL is laughable... Assuming he meant younger guys but that’s fair. Didn’t lose guys because of NIL I think was the point.

If NP never does anything other than college basketball fans seeing stories about how much he got paid by who, the number of people who will go look that up is huge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it’s accurate to say the cost to student for a full year of college with tuition, room, board, food, etc. is $50k that’s not the cost to the school or what they’re providing. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 21 minutes ago, Zlinedavid said: What’s going in your 50K calculation? That is the total I hear most when it comes to the total cost for an athlete. Cost of attendance is different at a lot of places but at IU my daughter cost of attendance was near $26,000. For athletes it is all the cost like nutrition, all of the free work out equipment and other things that athletes get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Painter knew going into the season that all of the seniors weren’t coming back so he brought in a class of 4 since this will be the first year since the pandemic that rosters have to be at 13 again. Sasha was already part of multiple NIL agreements too fyi. Of course it’s no guarantee Williams gets drafted but I’ve seen him in almost every 2nd round draft that I’ve looked at. Has nothing to do with “high ground.” Edited April 25, 2022 by Stlboiler23 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"All came back"? I guess Trevion, Ivey, Hunter, and Sasha missed that memo... Good Lord….they graduated or are top 5 pick in NBA. rules….there are no rules not trying to say IU did anything wrong…..but could you imagine if Cuban came in like Ruiz! this insanity has just begun 🍿 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted April 25, 2022 Report Share Posted April 25, 2022 I am not really against NIL if it was implemented on what is is supposed to be. It was for name, image and likeness which would allow athletes to profit off of their jersey sales or their autographs. The problem is that it is going down the way I thought it would for and it is pretty much donors giving players money with nothing in return. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the point I was setting up. It doesn’t cost a university anything to allow X number of additional students into any one class. So while missed tuition can be considered an opportunity cost, it’s not an out of pocket expense for the university. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
