Jack Sawyer was one of the top prospects in the country reeled in by Ohio State. The defensive lineman didn’t take long to cash in on the NIL benefits of college athletics before even taking a snap at the Division 1 level.

Sawyer revealed his new truck from Chevrolet on Monday. In fact, it was courtesy of a big time celebrity.

Look below to see Sawyer’s new ride from Mark Whalberg and Mark Whalberg Chevrolet.

I had a kid who stole a car from the Wahlberg dealership. I said they need Marky Mark to testify, but they disagreed.

BYU just got an endorsement that pays expenses for every player, including full scholarships for the walk ons.

Would this work at Nebraska?

According to UNL’s website, in-state tuition is $7,770, and most NU walk-ons are from Nebraska. But the Huskers have almost twice as many walk-ons as BYU, so the price tag for a business would be closer to $500,000 if you wanted to cover all of them.

Is there a business willing to move that kind of freight? Year after year?

Because of how the state’s NIL laws are written, Nebraska’s administration and coaching staff can’t broker such deals for athletes. So either a businessperson comes up with it, or some outside agency helps broker that deal.

The state of Utah doesn’t have any NIL laws, so schools can essentially adopt their own policies.

That’s what made this BYU walk-on deal interesting. The announcement clearly took place inside BYU’s walls, with the protein bar guy wearing BYU gear. And though it would certainly seem to inch right up to the line of what’s appropriate for schools to do in the NIL era, perhaps there isn’t much of a line to begin with.

I don't think it "inches up" to any line at all.  There really is no line, unless it's a self-imposed one in a state's specific NIL statutes.

You can pay players now.  Openly.  You can call it an IP license or an endorsement or whatever, and it must be funneled through boosters or sympathetic organizations, but ultimately that's all just semantics.

Nebraska could completely reinstate the County Scholarship program now.  Completely legal and above-board.  Just have the rotary or lions from each county sponsor one kid.  Easy peasy.

Now, Prop 48s are still a no-no, but schools have been finding ways to let in dummies for years even without allowances for PQs or NQs.

It's a way to run an "end around" both scholarship limits and Title IX.

It used to be that alumni and supporters were restricted from recruiting. Is this now changed? Or do the restrictions exist up until a letter of intent is signed?
As a practical matter, I believe there always was an "automobile exception," or how did Maurice Clarett and that Ohio State QB a few years back get away with driving cars that were "not theirs." The car dealers extensively advertised in the game day programs at Iowa going back to when I was a kid in the 1960s.

A lot of the female athletes have more followers than football players 10x more famous than them.

She could have at least put on one of their necklaces or something for that photo shoot. 

Come on now.

Interesting Data. 

Big Ten leads all Conferences. 

Ohio leads all states. 

Football leads all sports. 

Volleyball is ahead of Basketball.
