As I stated earlier NIL hasn't been defined. John Ruiz Billionaire from Miami has set aside 10 million dollars in his NIL fund for players to promote his business interests. Ruiz is a business owner as well as a booster and alumni of Miami. I understand why people are upset with this since it contradicts the traditional view of the student athletic, but the reality is that it's not the world we live in anymore.  If a school wants to be successful it has to have its boosters engaged in throwing around the cash. Congress is the only group with the ability to set a national standard on NIL. Until they do there isn't one.  Regardless of what you think NIL should are shouldn't be the real-world application is an avenue for boosters to dole out the cash.</p></blockquote><p></p>
