has mark harlan put together that big NIL deal yet?

[UtahFootballGM]

well? we’re waiting…

[Waybackutefan]

Is Harlan in charge of negotiating NIL deals?

[UtahFootballGM]

the last time i checked, he was the athletic director and NIL falls under his purview. 

[UrbanLiar]

Check again….

[UtahFootballGM]

cam getting a car from the local car dealership really doesn’t count. 

[NarfUte]

Except the school can’t negotiate NIL deals for athletes… The only thing Mark Harlan needs to do is make sure the SA’s are following the rules. 

[UtahFootballGM]

he can help facilitate as AD’s across the country are doing. 

[Waybackutefan]

From the NCAA on its rules for NIL:

Under the new NCAA policy, universities are prohibited from assisting the student athlete in obtaining NIL opportunities. While schools can offer guidance on whether the deal will violate NCAA rules or state law, they will not provide feedback about the contents of the deal itself. In other words, whether the student athlete is maximizing their NIL rights is in the student athlete’s sole judgment. It is imperative that student athletes adhere to the school’s individual policy and disclose any NIL deals to their compliance office in a timely manner.

 

 

[UtahFootballGM]

you really think vague language like this is stopping the AD’s at schools like USC, OSU, Alabama, A&M and others from getting players taken care of? 

[Waybackutefan]

So you advocating for Harlan to break the rules?

[UtahFootballGM]

i’m saying if we want to be considered a big time program, we need to start acting like one.

Google is your friend

[UTman]

Is this considered research for your next scathing article, PK? Please make sure you list Utehub as your source of insider information.

Ignored

[DrJazzy]

Good god some of our fans are so ignorant. If you want to help out – go to those sponsored events to fund some of our athletes. 

Do wish Utah had more passionate fans with money to form a Ute collective. 

[UtahFootballGM]

who says i haven’t put together a number of deals already? 

[Central Coast Ute]

Well you haven’t said you have. Have you?

[UtahFootballGM]

i have. 

[Central Coast Ute]

Expound

[UtahFootballGM]

owing to brand and student athlete privacy, i can’t divulge more details this time. 

[Central Coast Ute]

OK. Well you do realize any one of us can get on the internet and say the same thing.

[Waybackutefan]

Right this week I’m an anonymous astronaut who walked on the moon, prove me wrong!

[Stone]

So a brand has hired a student athlete to publicly promote their brand, but they have sworn you to secrecy because ….? Heaven forbid word gets out. Gotta keep these promotional deals as secret as possible, otherwise the business paying the money might get some benefit. 

[UtahFootballGM]

NDA’s are a helluva thing. 

[DrJazzy]

Not sure if it would exactly be kosher – but the University of Utah Hospital systems should look into using Athletes to promote thingx like the Orthopeadic services or Rehab Medicine. Feels like a win win to me.

Once I finish fellowship – if I come back to Utah I will def push whatever organization I work for to use Utah Athletes to promote my practice.

If this account wasn’t so old I’d say Pace has returned.

[Waybackutefan]

He has a handfull of posts all of which are bagging on Harlan

[UTman]

He’s not Pace, this account is Pat Kinahan the lazy-ass sports writer who has to skim fan boards to get ideas for his lame articles. Keep in mind he is a die-hard ASU man and wants the U to be runs as poorly as ASU.

[NarfUte]

Lazy ass sports writer who dyes the f**k out of his hair. Dude looked like a buffoon on the BCS busters documentary.

[Waybackutefan]

More likely a Zoob troll.
