This prob best spot for this question - is there any standard format to any of this? Like we are now a bit into this era and there seems to be so little info on how any of this works.

Are players actually getting their money? I’m assuming so or we would hear about it but I feel like there’s so little around how any of it works. Do they get paid monthly? Is it a case of cash? I’m assuming still free tuition and all but does a guy getting a million dollars still get his $20 lunch per diem? I know the grades / school part is a joke but I’m assuming there is still some logistical aspect of credits / classes that at least has to be checked off in some fashion is it just a ton of online classes basically?

I’m assuming there’s things in place but for the amount of money it feels like there is a general lack of knowledge and understanding to any of it. Can the schools stop paying a kid if he gets hurt or plays bad or do they get it all up front?

This money is explicitly not for performance. That's still against the rules.

So is there a signed agreement that states what the non-performance obligations are to receive the money? Or do they sign away their NIL to the school? What happens if they give the money and the kid just quits?

It’s just odd to me that there isn’t a clear system for giving 2 mil to someone. It’s insane.

There are definitely contracts. If a player up and quits they aren't getting paid. But all the money they are receiving from outside NIL/school revenue sharing is explicitly for the use of their name, image and likeness and cannot be tied to any performance incentives. So if you agree to pay a kid 2 million dollars and he ends up sucking, you still have to pay them 2 million dollars

Sounds like a decent chance this PG Hammond from Santa Clara (Herbert!!1) might commit this weekend

The NIL era of college basketball is stupid and sucks.

They’re all elite recruiters, elite developers of talent, elite X and O guys, championship in their dna. All of them.
