Oregon has hired a rogues gallery of cheaters and lowlifes so this early start at cheating is not a surprise.
"According to a report by Sportico.com, the University of Oregon has confirmed that the NCAA has sought information about the school and its relationship with a third-party Name, Image and Likeness program.
The third-party NIL program being questioned is Division Street, which provides branding and marketing assistance to Oregon athletes which "elevates their NIL opportunities while allowing them to focus on school and their sport."
Division Street backers include Nike co-founder and Ducks booster Phil Knight, former Nike Vice Presidents Rosemary St. Clair and Rudy Chapa."
"The core issue in each of these arrangements is the NCAA’s interim guidance that NIL money going to athletes cannot amount to pay-for-play or “impermissible inducements.” "

I see. Appreciate the clarification.
👍👍 This stuff is gonna get even messier...
It's the part about the low level scum they put on their staff and how they can use Uncle Phil's cash....both assistants they hired have records with the NCAA when they actually tried to control some of this stuff...doesn't excuse the point that they have turned a blind eye to other cheaters when hammering USC for a rogue player's family dirty laundry and dumped it on the school...lots of ugly politics involved...if they had been even handed about their punishments things may have never gone this far...
Honestly, Not sure how to take this.
Dudes can get cars and sign $1M deals now right?? So what is issue here?
Is This the SEC Infraction Committee letting everyone know who’s actually in charge here LOL??
Texas A&M just paid 30 million in this last class, and they are going after UO for lawyerspeak loopholes? I hope they tell the NCAA to fuck off. Those turds turned tail on this, and tried to pass the ball to congress…now they want to be tough? Eat a bowl of dicks.
The NCAA insisting on staying relevant. Maybe they’re not happy with the new staff Lanning assembled.
