Think it helps us or only the blue bloods? https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/08/sports/ncaabasketball/ncaa-endorsements-mark-emmert.html?action=click&module=Top Stories&pgtype=Homepage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, can you imagine the demand last year for the Jordan McCloud bobblehead, those things would have flown off the shelf. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Ford doing commercials for a scooter driving school. And Roberts doing one for Kitchenaid Toasters. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a lot of money for the university at a major program as well as the best path to money for the athletes but we can probably afford to give up the $5 adidas gives us to wear their ****** HS hand me down uniforms in order to get in talent that maybe attracted to their own shoe and glove deals.

They would benefit, just not at USF. Why would they come here and get the CiCi’s pizza sponsorship when they could go to UF and get the PaPa Johns dough instead. 7 hours ago, JTrue said: We won’t even pay to watch our own players play football and basketball. This has zero effect on our programs. It does affect our programs. It means the rare talent that does sign here will be fewer and further between. This is the next step in making a new tiered system in the money sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It means the rare talent that does sign here will be fewer and further between. This is the next step in making a new tiered system in the money sports. I think it puts more pressure on the kids produce as early as possible. If you are graded highly in HS and sign with a big program you will likely need to begin making your mark ASAP. Big companies will likely shy away from throwing money at freshmen, and you will need to be proven by the time you are junior. This could create a lot of chaos with the new transfer rules. High level recruits going down a level and productive G5 players moving up to the big leagues. They may need to get rid of the JUCO schools with how things are lining up.
