To cash in big on your name, image or likeness. However you do need to offer something more than a sweet jumper or a tight spiral. Meet the Cavinder Twins of Fresno State and their 5 million social media followers who Boost Mobile is willing to pay big bucks to meet. Cavinder Twins Cashing In. |

Now that the cat is out of the bag who knows what other creative ways these athletes will come up with to get paid. College athletics is a mess and it’s not getting any better. Please let the ones good enough go pro right from HS.

It will be fascinating to learn the factors that attract certain athletes to companies. So far, it has been the twins status as social media influencers with millions of followers and Hercy Miller’s famous father. Neither of these cases involve players that compete at the highest level of division 1, in fact, Miller hasn’t set foot on campus yet.

So I’m a billionaire who went to Big State College - I am going to pay ALL basketball players $2M to endorse my online Pet Rock business.
It won’t be about schools anymore for kids - it will be well ball players at state make $2M but kids at Tech are making $2.5M - I know where I’m going

Iona has a bunch of Boosters with deep pockets, I can see Pitino hosting them for a barbeque at his mansion on the 12th hole at Wing Foot.

Great job by Duquesne getting out in front of NLI and tying it to student development. Duquesne
Perhaps a model for the majority of D1 colleges that don’t have the kind of deep pocket boosters that the Uber-rich schools can tap to flood their players with cash. Far from me to tell people what to think (LOL) but supporting a “personal brand coach’ pilot program in entrepreneurship for Athletics sounds like a great project for the Raymond A. Rich Leadership Institute at Marist. |

Cosimo’s better step it up "Matt Herasme here for Golf Car Annie..." A lot of Marist athletes would be thrilled to rep Red Fox Eatery tbh |

can't take their $$ and keep your eligibility evidently...they're owned by a gambling concern.
