All our major pro leagues are very anti-competitive.
Revenue sharing, salary caps and collective bargaining.
If we took that away all the pro leagues would be dominated by teams in NY and LA.

That is true but if players are to be considered as " labor" why would they not pay taxes on income/scholorships.Rick83 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:16 amGenerally speaking scholarships are not taxable (there are situations where they can be though).

The answer is simple. There is no way to consider them as labor.

Re: Keep Joey 2024 - NIL
At the moment players are not considered employees of the university of course; however, that could change at some point. My understanding, based on current law, if they become employees then a portion of the scholarship would become taxable income as well as any direct compensation. Players at private institutions could see a huge tax bill associated with their scholarship benefit if that were to happen. Tax laws are changed regularly so they could make exceptions for this situation of course.bcoach wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:25 amThat is true but if players are to be considered as " labor" why would they not pay taxes on income/scholorships.

With all due respect, the discussion of taxes, employees etc is nice but pointless. We need to find a NILCollective to donate to.

Re: Keep Joey 2024 - NIL
Here's the other thing. If these schools are contacting JA it's tampering since his name is not in the portal as of yet. If your "source" knows I'm sure the coaching staff is well aware.Rekdiver wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:38 amMy person said yes but declined specifics for obvious reasons.

Duke's QB entered the portal with a "no contact" clause because he already knew where he was going. 3 minutes later he had 5 crystal balls to Notre Dame.
Entering the portal is just a formality now just to say you're in it.

Re: Keep Joey 2024 - NIL
Most certainly there still is. But do you really want to shine light onto your own house is the question. Any player can reveal the teams if they want but most times it won't happen.311neers wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:50 amThere is no such thing as tampering anymore.

Contact Noah Hannon - Collective 3333 - base entry to donate is 5k -- they don't want dweebs aka Cabin posters telling them where and who to give the money to -- if you don't have 5k then give 4,999.00 or less to a local church or Food Bank.

Get a group together, raise $5k and select 1 of the group to hold the seat at the table. I personally don’t need to be involved in any decisions. 10 guys 500 apiece.

If players are ever considered employees of the university they play for is when things will REALLY get interesting. I doubt that will ever happen specifically for the tax reasons.Rick83 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 30, 2023 11:35 amAt the moment players are not considered employees of the university of course; however, that could change at some point.
