    There is some kind of review process to make sure the deal has an NIL business purpose and isnt naked "pay for play", but I suspect most endorsements fit that mold and pass muster. I assume all it would take is someone being able to buy your jersey number & name on it. Now that schools can deal directly there will probably be a little less rinky dink endorsements in name only. But we'll see.

    Where there’s smoke there’s usually fire.

    The title of Trump‘s executive order, believe it or not, is: “ President Donald J Trump Saves College Sports.” Considering that flattery gets you everywhere with Trump, perhaps this is the way to change his presidency so that it doesn’t destroy all kinds of things near and dear to us. How about a climate change executive order titled: “President Donald Trump Saves Mankind.” How about another one named: “President Donald Trump Saves Starving Children.“

    That’s the title of their press release about it. The executive order itself is titled “Saving College Sports.”

    Thanks for the correction. However, be careful. I don’t wanna see in the newspaper that Gator Ben has pissed off President Donald J Trump and is being sent to Alligator Alcatraz.
