Spider Collective NIL

[kneepadmckinney]

Eventually, enough people will be sued, lied to, scammed, or fail to get a return on significant investment that the lawyers will get involved, and NIL will be a tighter contract. As in, players will require a commitment of amount and payment terms and timing, with a counterparty that has the means to pay (or a guaranty from a third party to ensure payment), and schools/collectives will require commitment to the school. 1-year commitment, 2-year commitment, etc. And it will be in writing, notarized, etc.

This is a good thing.

On the other hand, I'm not exactly crying for Primo Spears, who is on his 92nd college in 3.5 years.

I'm going on the assumption that almost all schools do have contracts that specify NIL payments to the athletes and what is expected of them to receive those payments.

but clearly not everyone is holding up their end of the deal, so yeah ... lawyers.
