Yeah. Saw Cavaliers Futures post the same thing as did Brennan and KT. Probably many others.

We sorta had a deal with McDonalds. If you went through the drive thru with one of our star players extra food magically appeared in your bags!

NCAA decides faintly poking at Miami with a stick is way to kick of enforcement of new era:

Yeah, the headline is all “launches inquiry” but the article is all “the NCAA sent some nice interns to have tea with John Ruiz”. I just posted some Sabre diatribes that anyone can read if they’re interested, but basically I don’t think Miami or Ruiz violated any rules … mostly because there are basically no rules.

Also, it’ll be nearly impossible to prove that the few rules that exist were broken, even if they were. All about timing and intent, and unless the folks involved were truly morons (always a possibility), the NCAA has like no hope.

All of this reminds me of the subtle exchange in the solidly funny movie BASEketball:
Cain: Do you think Shaq got rich playing in Orlando? Hardly. He made his fortune moving to L.A. You know how much he makes now?
Remer: As much as he made playing in college?

There’s been a lot of push back on that reporting from On3. Some Miami guys are saying the story put out by the kid’s ‘representation’ isn’t accurate. And he’s trashing Florida’s NIL collective without providing any receipts. If anything, this is probably just an example of how messy all of this stuff is going to get.

Hearing the same. The number is definitely not 9mil. Lot of rumors about how and where the story was started, but given that the source is On3 NIL that maybe should be a starting point. Like @MaineWahoo said this is another part of the dirt NIL brings when programs and fanbases start spreading even more fake news about each others recruiting pracitces.
