In this episode, host Greg Glynn sits down with Kristi Dosh about her background in the sports, the recent House vs. NCAA settlement and her new book “The Athlete NIL Playbook.” Kristi explained how her interest in the business side of sports developed through her legal career and writing, leading to her first book deal and a position at ESPN. She discussed her upcoming book, "The Athletes NIL Playbook," and her experience covering NIL issues, including the Ed O'Bannon case. The Evolution of NIL Kristi and Greg discussed the evolution of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) opportunities for college athletes, noting significant progress despite initial skepticism about NCAA approval. They highlighted a lack of education across the ecosystem, particularly at the high school level. Kristi shared her development of an NIL certificate program at the University of Florida for coaches to better understand and discuss NIL with recruits. Greg and Kristi agreed that while college athletes have seen the most progress, there's still work to be done in integrating NIL education across campus departments and harnessing the interest of non-athletes in the field. NIL Books Kristi discussed her NIL book “The Athletes NIL Playbook” which was inspired by the overwhelming number of questions she received from parents about NIL opportunities since its inception. Greg shared his experience of writing the first-ever children's book about NIL featuring the story of Emma Eubank and Hannah Dukeman who used their NIL to raise awareness and funds for cancer research. NIL Teaches Life Skills Kristi and Greg discussed the positive impact of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) opportunities for athletes, focusing on how it helps them develop both hard and soft skills that prepare them for life after sports. Kristi highlighted examples of athletes using NIL to run camps, clinics, and lessons, while Greg shared his experience creating PliableCamps.com to connect athletes create camps and clinics across different sports. They agreed that NIL provides financial benefits and enables athletes to explore career paths, build resumes, and gain valuable experiences, addressing the common challenge of athletes not knowing their identity outside of sports. House vs. NCAA Settlement Challenges Greg and Kristi discussed the ongoing challenges and uncertainties surrounding the recent college sports settlement, including issues related to revenue sharing, Title IX compliance, and antitrust concerns. Kristi expressed skepticism about the settlement's long-term effectiveness, highlighting ongoing legal challenges and predatory practices involving the purchase of athletes' back pay claims. Greg and Kristi also explored potential impacts on college sports, such as changes in roster limits affecting football and other sports, and the varying approaches schools might take to allocate revenue-sharing funds across different sports. Greg and Kristi agreed that while the settlement brings some clarity to revenue distribution, many questions remain about its broader implications for college athletics.

Immigration attorney Ksenia Maiorova, a partner at Green and Spiegel, joined me to chat about what international athletes can and cannot do when it comes to NIL, why so many workarounds being attempted don't actually work and why there's virtually no way for international athletes to safely receive revenue sharing on a student visa.

I'm joined this episode by Chris Giles, co-founder and CEO of FanRally, a platform that replaces traditional season tickets with a tech-enabled subscription service. Members pay a monthly subscription fee instead of paying for tickets and can reserve seats directly on their phones, finding games that work best for their schedules.FanRally is aimed at modern consumers, including younger fans, who are comfortable with subscription services. Also, the seat reservations can't be resold, so it helps teams identify the fans attending games and to build more direct relationships with them.The company was founded in 2020 after Chris had served as COO of the Oakland A's and VP of Sales & Strategy for the San Francisco 49ers. Backed by Capital One, it has already partnered with more than 20 teams across the NCAA, NBA, MLB, MiLB and NHL.In the episode, we discussed:How university partners have used FanRallyHow FanRally can replace season tickets in a way that benefits both fans and the athletic departmentIntegrating an existing point-based system into FanRallyHow FanRally allows athletic departments to reclaim revenue currently going to third-party resellersThe data available to departments using FanRallyWays professional sports teams are doing ticketing better than college athleticsUsing FanRally to increase student attendance at gamesHow sponsors can benefit from FanRallyHow FanRally increases a team's yield from a revenue perspective on premium seatsYou can follow FanRally on Twitter and LinkedIn.You can also follow me on Twitter and Instagram to discuss further, ask additional questions or suggest future episodes.You can find more of my analysis on the business of college sports at BusinessofCollegeSports.com and Forbes.

On Friday, September 9th, I was joined on campus at the University of Florida by NCAA President Mark Emmert. Special thanks to the UF Institute for Coaching Excellence for hosting this, which was an interview for both of the NIL courses I teach at UF in the Sports Management and PR departments. Students and athletes alike were invited, and I appeared in my capacity as a professor. Although this was not a media interview, the NCAA has granted me permission to share it.In our nearly 90 minutes together, we discussed:How Year 1 of NIL played outBiggest challenges ahead for NILWhether Congress will pass a bill to regulate NILThe debate over student athletes becoming employeesCompensating student athletes as ambassadors of universitiesThe challenges of student athletes unionizingWhere NIL goes from hereThere were so many great nuggets in this conversation, but especially the concept of student athletes as brand ambassadors, which comes up several times throughout the interview.You can read a summary of the parts of this discussion that interested me the most on Business of College Sports.You can also follow me on Twitter and Instagram to discuss further, ask additional questions or suggest future episodes.You can find more of my analysis on the business of college sports at BusinessofCollegeSports.com and Forbes.
I'm joined this episode by Rob Seiger, a partner in Archer & Greiner P.C.'s Sports Law Group, who has joined us once before to talk about issues international student athletes have been trying to navigate in order to take advantage of the NCAA's new name, image and likeness rules. Rob represents college and university athletic departments in immigration and related compliance issues for their foreign athletes. If you didn't hear our first episode, listen to it here. In this episode, we're taking a look at a few specific instances where international student athletes have attempted to take advantage of NIL without violating the restrictions of their student visas. Are these situations good examples of how international student athletes can take advantage of NIL opportunities? Or, will we see the government make an example out of them for violating visa laws?This is an important topic that still has more questions than answers, unfortunately.You can follow Archer & Greiner on Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
