Earlier this month, Learfield made a pivotal change to its NIL approach. The multimedia rights holder for 160 Division I athletic programs announced it was turning its Compass app – which was primarily used as the athlete opt-in platform for major licensing campaigns like Fanatics and EA Sports College Football 25 – into a dealmaking platform. Learfield is now rolling out its second annual NIL impact report, highlighting the latest trends in the space. With roughly 30,000 athletes already onboarded onto Compass NIL, the stats will continue to rise over time. According to the report released on...

The industry-wide financial stress test created by the House settlement is forcing campus leaders to look in the mirror and see the same image many have identified for years: bloated athletic departments. Athletic departments are not a monolith – not all schools have 200-plus staff members like Ohio State, which generated a university-record $280 million in revenue in fiscal year 2023. But schools at all levels to varying degrees are dealing with the same issue: Non-essential positions may now be expendable. “Look at the staff sizes of these school athletic departments,” ESPN analyst Jay Bilas...

NIL can become a lot to handle for any coach currently leading a collegiate program. However, Mark Pope sees it as an opportunity for the Wildcats to put something into their fanbase as much as they donate into them. Pope shared some thoughts on name, image, and likeness during a media availability on Saturday. He did so ahead of the NEW ERA Event from the Club Blue collective. He realizes that it’s the biggest shift at the college level that we’ve ever seen. Still, if it gives them the chance to connect with their fans, especially those that buy in on them as a program, he is all for it. “Lis...

LSU star Flau’jae Johnson is one of the biggest names in the NIL space.

Next season, she’ll continue to be a major focal point for the Tigers. Johnson’s capitalized on her talents on and off the court to land big-money deals with maj...

Zabien Brown immediately entered the Alabama cornerback rotation this spring. The five-star recruit in the 2024 class enrolled early, arriving in Tuscaloosa in early January. He stuck with the Crimson Tide throughout Nick Saban’s retirement and the hiring of Kalen DeBoer. With Alabama’s top two cornerbacks from 2023 off to the NFL draft, there was plenty of opportunity for Brown. The second-ranked recruit coming out of California in the cycle stepped up, starting in the Tide’s spring opposite from USC transfer Domani Jackson. Alabama picked up Wake Forest cornerback DaShawn Jones in May, addin...

Now 10 of the players who made history on the court are trying to blaze a new trail in the courts. They’ve sued the NCAA and the Collegiate Licensing Company for using their name, image and likeness without their permission. The players seek compensation because they claim the NCAA has continued to use images, videos and names of members of the 1983 team...

In June 2021, after leading LSU to its ninth Super Regional under his watch, Paul Mainieri announced his retirement. Later that month, the NCAA announced its interim NIL policy, paving the way for athletes to monetize on their name, image and likeness. Three years after his announcement, Mainieri is back in the game. He’s taking over as the head coach at South Carolina, which will be his first college coaching opportunity in the era of NIL and the transfer portal. The game has changed dramatically since he last stood in the dugout, but Mainieri said that’s why it’s important for him to put tog...
