You can't separate the collective from the school

The reason he chose UNLV in the first place was because of the promise/inducement made by the collective. UNLV benefitted from this promise for three games, including two wins against P4 competition, despite the collective not upholding its end of the agreement.

I don't blame Sluka for not playing. If they told him they'd pay him, and they

Because UNLV said they did pay him and essentially he is getting higher offers

He and his dad say that's untrue. We have no idea what's true.

Yup should be easy to prove who is lying. My bet is on the kid and the dad.

ThEJOKER

No, UNLV hasn't said that as far as I can tell.

UNLV probably can't say anything since NIL is supposed to come from an outside

Exactly, so assuming they fed this information to the media they don't look good

We don't know what the truth is.

Pretty easy to see if he cashed checks or not. If someone is being accused of

Right. Both sides are telling contradictory stories that justify their own acts.

I'm surprised he is taking so much of the heat. I don't know too many people

Why do you believe Sluka automatically?

lol. Did you see the sentence “if that is really what’s happening…”?

Did you miss the "if that's what happened?"

How often to NFL QBs hold out?

The Vikings and JJ McCarthy almost had a holdout this last summer.

NIL has never been about guaranteed money... theses aren't employees...

Coug

What do you think most of his teammates are "working" for?

9:04am

This is yet another reason why NIL needs to be a binding multiyear contract

CaliWG

Problem is most kids coming from high school are worth 0 unless they are 4-5

That's why you have incentive-laden escalators in the NIL deal

CaliWG

Maiava's deal is like that with USC.

The contract isn't with UNLV, it's with some sponsor. He should keep playing.

9:11am

I'm guessing there is no contract - otherwise he could sue

9:13am

I do, because there should be a commitment to the team and to the school. The NIL collective is a separate entity
