College Front Office (@CollegeFrontOfc) has built a proprietary multi-factor model to estimate every player's annualized NIL market value. These are proprietary estimates, not official financial disclosures.
Here is an estimate of the Illini’s current roster…

Full Methodology: collegefrontoffice.com/footb…
This is a market-value estimate (what a player is worth in an open NIL market), calibrated against public deal reports where they leak. Most deals stay private, so we can't measure exact correlation with team spending.
Returners and portal moves use market signal where available, recruits and unsigned roles use composite-based comps. Confidence is highest on starters with public deal anchors, lowest on backups and unsigned freshmen.

Super niche complaint.
TSJ should be #1 trending right now but because people don’t know if it’s spelled Terrance or Terrence (the latter is correct btw), the impressions get split and he’s only 17th.

Absolutely love this. Champ Smith is taking some of that NIL money and giving back to high school student-athletes.
We might need to start a Walter Payton Man of the Year Award at the collegiate level.
I’ve been blessed to be a blessing.

Source: Former Missouri State basketball player Michael Osei-Bonsu is on a visit to Illinois. That’s the first of multiple visits over the upcoming weeks he’s planning. Illinois projects him primarily as a tight end, while other schools see him as a defensive tackle.
Apr 20
Missouri State basketball player Michael Osei-Bonsu has entered the NCAA transfer portal and plans to play football next year, he told ESPN. Osei-Bonsu is 6-4, 289 pounds and has a 35-inch vertical. He plans to play defensive tackle or tight end. He’ll be repped by Buddy Baker at Exclusive Sports Group.

Ayo Dosunmu probably just made himself $20–25M in this series against the Nuggets.
UFA this summer…feels like he just played his way from ~$13–15M AAV into the ~$20M range on a 3–4 year deal.
Can’t think of another player more deserving.
