Why we don’t ask athletes to Autograph stickers.
Couldn’t they just sign a sticker? No. I mean yes, they could just sign a sticker, but no, we won’t do that. All of our NIL autograph cards are signed in person, on product. Yes it is exhausting to fly from Boise to Birmingham, then drive to Tuscaloosa to get an autograph from a kid who is working his ass off to be the best on the field while also trying to capitalize on his or her craft. I had a friend tell me today that the big guys do it this way(autograph stickers) for a reason…if that’s the path, count me out. We do it this way because it matters. We want to connect with the athletes and we want them to connect with our product. It would be impossible for them to connect and put their energy into a product they never see. The world is so full of transactional experiences we will not be one more of those. This is a picture of Kool-Aid Mckinstry signing our product. Kool-Aid is arguably the top DB in the country. Even more than that, he is an amazing person. I would not know or see this without shaking his hand and spending just a moment with him. We truly love what we do and love the athletes we work with. So whether it’s Tuscaloosa, Austin, or Gainsville (where I am now) we will be there. Greeting the athletes, being their advocate and hopefully offering a refreshing experience in what is such a transactional world. #nil #collegefootball #collegesports #inspiration #youngleaders

Comparing college NIL payments to professional athlete endorsement deals is like comparing Apples to Hungry Man Salisbury Steak.
The Significance of NIL Payments for College Athletes: An Unparalleled Opportunity Collegiate sports generate immense revenue, it is crucial to understand why college athletics cannot be compared to the professional level. One significant aspect that sets them apart is the absence of financial compensation for college athletes. Let’s talk about the difference between NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) payments for college athletes and why they differ from endorsement deals in professional sports. College athletes often dedicate countless hours to their respective sports, juggling rigorous training schedules, demanding academics, and social commitments. While scholarships cover tuition and other expenses, it is important to note that these athletes do not receive salaries or stipends. They rely solely on scholarships, which may not fully cover their living expenses. Thus, NIL payments can be a lifeline, providing them with some financial stability during their college years. NIL payments offer college athletes an opportunity to earn money through their own image and likeness. These payments allow athletes to profit from their hard work and talent, enabling them to gain economic independence and alleviate financial pressures. By compensating athletes for their NIL, it empowers them to have a fair share of their own success. Comparing NIL payments in college athletics to endorsement deals in professional sports is like comparing apples to oranges, or apples to Hungry Man Salisbury Steak. Professional athletes sign multi-million dollar contracts, ensuring their financial stability for years to come. The few dollars earned from a jersey sale or endorsement deal may seem insignificant to them. However, for college athletes, NIL payments can provide immediate financial relief and contribute to their overall well-being. At ONIT Athlete, we understand the disparity between college athletics and professional sports. We believe in fair compensation for college athletes and support their journey to economic independence. That is why we are committed to paying over 30% on our trading cards and all of our NIL products. We recognize the value of college athletes' name, image, and likeness and strive to ensure they receive a fair share of the revenue generated by their own brand. College athletes face unique challenges and financial constraints that set them apart from their professional counterparts. NIL payments provide an opportunity for college athletes to earn money using their own name, image, and likeness, offering them much-needed financial stability and independence. While endorsement deals may not significantly impact professional athletes with multi-million dollar contracts, NIL payments play a crucial role in supporting the dreams and aspirations of college athletes. At ONIT Athlete, we are proud to advocate for fair compensation and empower college athletes as they navigate their collegiate athletic careers.
