NEW EXTRA POINTS
I caught up with the folks who are trying to give college athletes a better licensing deal to appear in video games...a shakeup that could help athletes, game publishers, schools, AND consumers:

New, for @FOS:
Yes, Ohio State's roster has a big ol' NIL "payroll" number. But in my view, the lesson here is far more complicated than just "spent a lot of money to win a title."
Experience, leadership and FIT matter a great deal:

Some career news 🚨
I've joined @MattBrownEP & Extra Points as its VP of Marketing.
I'm excited to support the company's growth as a premier digital media company in college sports business.
extrapointsmb.com/p/we-re-gr…
I'll be focused on audience acquisition, content and PR strategy, and brand development. Ultimately, I'm here to help the company grow.
Matt & co. have built an incredible foundation and have put EP in a great position to do big things in 2025 🚀
This is a new chapter after a decade at @Opendorse. Working with @Blake_Lawrence & @Kunalic has been an incredible journey that I wouldn't trade for anything.
I'm rounding out my time at OD in a consulting role. Holler if you need a connection!
Breakaway from the NCAA. Have a third party run it all. Make athletes employees. Eliminate the academic-athletic connection. Is that the ONLY path forward for college sports?
@MattBrownEP (and others!) think there could be another way.

Short NIL 🧵
Yesterday, @opendorse put out a 16-page report on NIL three years in. The data is mostly of deals disclosed through or processed by the company (between July 1, 2021 and June 7, 2024).
A few things that stood out to me ...
Opendorse has released its annual NIL report highlighted by this: The collegiate NIL market place is projected to eclipse the $2 billion mark in tandem with athlete rev-sharing, and the average Power 4 conference collective is expected to eclipse the $13 million mark.
Year four of the NIL era is here! Dive into NIL at 3: The Annual Opendorse Report as we look back and forecast ahead.
🔜 Estimated Market Spend of $1.67 Billion
