North Dakota State has at least 3 football players being offered six-figure deals to enter the transfer portal (opens today). Football season hasn’t even ended (NDSU is in the Division I FCS playoffs). The deals revolve around “Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL)”.

While I would argue that there are still a lot of actual student athletes, shit like this doesn’t help my argument.
