    I could be wrong but I feel like most of their NIL money has nothing really to do with them playing basketball at UM. I am guessing they have a ton of followers on social media and that their revenue stream is going to remain rather consistent.

    Whereas the men's team, guys got paid by some big Miami booster, specifically to come play at Miami. While probably doing some minor endorsement for whatever his company is.

    Being hot only lasts so long. Gotta cash in while they can! I don't blame them a bit.

    Title IX is pretty much the only reason there are scholarship limits in football. It wasn't because of any desire to create a more fair and competitive balance.

    They strike me as an athletic version of the Kardashians.

    Why did baseball get rid of the Reserve Clause??

    Why did the NCAA change the rules to allow for NIL??

    Why are we probably a year or two away from the NCAA allowing schools to pay players directly??




    HINT: It's the same answer to all three questions....

    They quoted a Bible verse so I bet they're going to do something holy. Or maybe they're the chosen ones.

    And that's also why schools have, like, 23 women's rowing scholarships.

    Because SCOTUS said so. MLB did not get rid of the reserve clause SCOTUS determined it illegal in the Curt Flood case. Same for NIL.
    I have seen only two great plays: Hamlet and put the ball into the basket
