Not sure if it is the same for NIL but pro athletes are considered entertainers and their weekly check is taxed based on the location of the performance. So, say you are in the made up conference ...

Yes, the issue is you hand a kid, albeit 18 years old is an adult with responsibilities, a huge wad of money...and they have never had to budget or plan or many don't have adults modeling this type...

It reminds me of the guy that won $1,000,000 and was flat broke a year later. They asked him where it all went and he said, "I spent $990,000 on Liquor and Ladies...and the other $10k, well was just...

Part of the difference is those in the trades were W2 employees...so there was money taken from each check to offset a large hit on 4/15...Collective is just a 10/99 check...and kids that have never...

I've heard two tales in the past few days about NIL.

1. A MBB coach said he was talking to a kid who agreed to transfer in, but needed his NIL money to be bumped up $XXX because he needed to pay...

I'm thinking this through from a legal perspective...With NIL that all changes. In the past a kid transferred and still had the ability to be on the team, practice with the team, and be on...

So what does the NCAA rule about immediate elgibility do to the SoCon rule regarding inner-conference transfers sitting out?

Seems to me, if the rule was challenged in court, the SoCon would...

THe NCAA is completely feckless now. Their rule book is about as useful as a Chilton's Manual for a 1978 AMC Gremlin. Come back when they actually decide to enforce their rules and require the...

On the Flip Side of that....The Mocs have had 10 players Enter the Portal. 5 were not going to crack the two deep. The other 5 included 2 OLs (both graduated with one year left), a back up LB, a...

The Mocs picked up 13 from the portal so far. (1 P5, 5 G5, 4 FCS, 3 D2) Most have 2 or 3 years left. MAny are somewhat local kids that want to come home, or players the staff tried to recruit a...

Yep, I think about them every time I eat too many salads!!!

Interesting rumors coming out of the Chattanooga WBB coach search. It seems one of the top candidates would bring her husband in a "package deal" and he is an incredible FB coach with a great...

He nailed it. Over the years, I've had the opportunity to witness medical staff reactions to some crazy situations (some even first hand, but that was back when they used leaches and drilled holes...

262 FCS/FBS programs. Not every school will jump up to the 120, so it probably won't be a one for one with 2620 additional kids in camp (can we even call it camp anymore without 2 and 3 a day...

Chattanooga Wrapped up on Friday...Is it really SPRING practice if it end 4 days before Spring begins? Coach Wright said he really like to get it over with early because it gives a longer window to...

I'm wondering if Title iX can just go away altogether. Vandy had a female kicker play in a game a few years back, so technically Football is now a coed sport...right? Anatomy and a y chromosome...

If they win the Ivy Tourney, I'll be sure to pick them into the Sweet 16 in my office bracket.

While your list of collective bargaining goals is nice, none of this is about achieving those goals. This is purely about getting a pay check on top of their scholarship. They want spending money....

Agreed, the only stipulation employers must follow on wages in the legal minimum wage. And that is only if the employee is a w2 employee and not a 1099. The union can make demands, but nowhere does...

I wonder if any candidates will turn them down because of the unionization piece...or maybe there are candidates that are more willing to jump on board because of it...but I do wonder if it has an...

Interestingly, I think this might actually help the directional schools. I look at many G5 programs and FCS to a large degree, and there is a disconnect between the athletes and the student body. ...

BAKE SALE!!!!

Club sports do have travel costs, but the clubs would play much closer club teams. Your current conferences would not be the same. IT would be places you could drive to, play,...

Grew up in Randolph County 30 years ago...Sister and Parents live in GSO now...I have seen the A&T homecoming and what it does for the local economy. I've often said the game is secondary. It is a...

Compensation comes in many different forms. Over my professional career, I have been paid in cash, stock, bonus trips, an automobile, etc.... all of which have been taxed. If players are considered...

This article form this weekend's Fortune is very concerning. Depending on the year, the NCAA has about 25 institutions (on a good year) that are truly self sufficient (no money from the general...
