I have a hard time believing that a major company REALLY needs some random college athlete to help them sell their products especially if that athlete has to say who they are.

That's the ruse.

Had a company with locations in Roanoke and Lynchburg that was using a Virginia basketball player for comercials. Lasted a couple months. No more athletes being used.

In general, college athletes make poor commercials.

That is why true NIL would be a total failure. Just what would you buy because an athlete pitched it to you?

How are the Joey wings? Do they have more fire and zip on them?

I like them. They are spicy but not too hot. They aren’t on the menu but they’ll make them for you.

One thing NIL/portal will do is keep school records intact. With the players transferring left and right most holding school records now, probably won't see them beat.

Good point, I had not considered the impact on school or conference records.

All time records might not fall but season records will continue to fall, both of our past 2 transfer QBs have proven that already.
