In football, high school seniors are still 3 years away from getting paid, at the very earliest. Only the biggest schools with the most exposure will have players making serious income before they turn pro.

Imagine being 17 and knowing that kind of money was at least a possibility within a year or two.
Would be disingenuous to make that representation to the linemen and/or most defensive players.

And there’s a bit of a novelty aspect to NIL deals at this point. Will be interesting to see how durable the money is over the intermediate term.
