Sincere question, what specifically have they done? I know they've helped a few

players who were short of cash to earn some pocket money, fed them some dinners, and all that - but what am I missing of greater substance that they've done?

I agree that they deserve credit for breaking ground in the BYU NiL space, but am not aware of any headline accomplishments. I'm probably missing something.

I don’t know all the players they’ve had a roll in but a recent example

As in the are paying a significant amount or all of his NiL next year?

Yes, they’re a significant portion of his NIL

They've done pretty much nothing. The royal blue collective is the one doing all

Hard to imagine something bigger than AJ. A Lyons-Harris combo might qualify tho

Has to be Lyons news. What else would be that big right now?

Mar 16, 12:58pm

Yeah to be a bigger star than AJ it would probably have to be an elite QB

puntersarepeople

Mar 16, 1:06pm

There are no bigger stars than AJ.

I think landing Lyons could be considered a bigger deal

puntersarepeople

Mar 16, 2:41pm

I’d say just due to the fact that Lyons is a member that it’s not as big of a deal

To me it isn't close. Would you rather land Lebron James or Rhett Bomar, Jimmy Clausen, Ben Olsen

AJ a bigger deal than Wiggins and Jabari? AJ isn’t even the projected #1 right

puntersarepeople

Mar 16, 3:31pm

Yes, he is the projected number one. He’s not the projected for one person.

KYU

Mar 16, 3:48pm

I just checked, you are right. But he’s not even close to LeBron for hype

puntersarepeople

Mar 16, 3:54pm

I don’t think anyone, including the person who mentioned LeBron James is comparing the hype of AJ to LeBron

KYU

Mar 16, 4:46pm

There have been several saying he could be the best since LeBron

lol, AJ is much higher rated than Darryn Petersen.

That's what they want you to think, but then it turns out to be something like

Mar 16, 1:09pm

It is not Lyons.

Don't think coug connect has had much of a role in those because it is a subscription news/media service but happy they

They use the subs to provide NIL. Jake takes very little for himself.

Great but subs don’t generate a ton of revenue so maybe overstating contribution to AJ NIL a bit maybe?

Hammurabi

Mar 16, 6:41pm

Coug Connect hasn’t ever said they had anything to do with AJ.

WP17

Mar 16, 11:02pm

The 435 above said so, that’s what was confusing to me

Hammurabi

Mar 16, 11:12pm

That’s referring to Gentry

They’ve had things blow up in their faces re insider leaks
