For example, Players A sign a contract for X amount of money for a Y year contract. This would prevent players from jumping after 1 year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can leave your job every year if you want. Depends what line of work you are in. If it involves signing a contract that requires you to finish a particular job ( for example, a contract to built a house), or in the NFL, where you sign multi year contracts,.... its different I am a white guy in my early 40's who doesn't speak Korean, but I am still an aspiring k pop artist, and if I sign a contract with a label, I would have to finish the terms of the contract.

USFBulls12 Posted April 18 Group: Member Topic Count: 62 Content Count: 3,698 Reputation: 930 Days Won: 7 Joined: 03/17/2012 Share Posted April 18 I know at this point, for most people, it's semantics, but can we stop referring to the payments to players from the universities as "NIL" and properly refer to it as "Collectives" like Deion Sanders was talking about in that video I posted. I know a lot of people don't care for Deion on this forum, but he's correct and we shouldn't be calling something one thing when it's not actually that by definition. Originally, we thought that's what these payments to players are -- "NIL" -- but that's not true. Universities are not paying players for their "Name, Image & Likeness" but rather are paying them using the tip jar of the Collectives. SOME players are receiving NIL deals but those are not from the universities, those are like signing endorsement deals as a professional and are coming from corporations for the use of the athlete's Name, Image & Likeness in their promotions/ advertisements. NIL ≠ Collectives 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
