This week we discuss how Exit 56 is getting creative with NIL deals. The publisher is working with student-athletes at Penn State and the University of Michigan to publish university-specific children’s books. And we brag on our Nillie Athletes playing on the Grambling State University basketball and the American International College hockey teams.
Our NIL Mathlete segment discusses our listener’s time spent listening to our podcast in 2022.
In our News and Facts segment, we discuss the merger of the Crimson and Cream Collective and the Strengthening Oklahoma Collective, the launch of the Battles End Collective for Florida State, the approval of high school NIL activities in Pennsylvania and Tennessee, the first high school NIL deal in Pennsylvania (between Neal Brown and The Pavement Group, and Opendorse’s new NIL Book.
