@wallstreetjournal: College softball star NiJaree Canady’s transfer from Stanford landed her a seven-figure payday and Texas Tech a spot in the Women’s College World Series. But lucrative deals like hers could soon be doomed.

The rule is changing because she’s black. If she was a white person, they’ll be saying something totally different.

Another way to control players because they don’t like AA players making this money

Fair market value is literally whatever someone is willing to pay them.

🥵I live in Lubbock and tech has a nonprofit (Matador Club) or should I say the non profit is tech Alumni mostly, They receive donations from tech alumni, local businesses and fans. The club work with the NIL athletes to create partnerships with local charities, athletes promote these charities through various means. Then money that was donated to matadors club is then used to pay the athletes for their NIL activities.

Zero legislation for coach pay but the athletes get strict oversight. What part of this is a free market? It's almost as if America was never 'free.'

They want to change the rules because she's black. If she was white it wouldn't be a problem. 😏

If the rules are changed, they should also apply to the coaches. There is no way they should make millions on the exploitation of their athletes. BTW, a million dollars to give up a Stanford education is a small price to pay.

Softball and specifically pitchers will be interesting to watch because having a single star pitcher on your team can make you a top 10 team and with a handful of other elite players almost garuntee you a shot at the national title so it begs the question how much is a natty worth
