Clemson to build Student-Athlete Branding Institute in response to NIL changes

Times are a-changin' in the world of college football. To keep up with the ever-revolving world concerning NIL, Clemson is trying to stay ahead of the curve and make a new space for their student-athletes. "The student-athlete branding institute is really going to be a real positive lever for us as Read Update »

meant getting booster money .

The future of the NIL money train will be a crash and burn incident if the coaches can't keep the have's and have not's animosity to a minimum.

Never thought I'd see a Heisman winner thank his linemen with new Rolex's after the ceremony .

Now they can make that money legally and not have to worry about the crooked NCAA picking and choosing who to investigate! Just go make your money kids!

It will probably be both. Bagman and NIL.

SEC bagmen for the OL. Same as always. That part won’t change.

Is it within the new


Jul 7, 2021, 5:53 PM

"rules" for university resources to be provided and directly used by student-athletes to make $$$? Can a regular student use the resources, too? Will there be university (state) employee(s) assisting? This could get slippery and only accelerate the demise of college sports.

This is a genius move by Dabo. He (the University) is simply helping them navigate the ins and outs of self promotion. Sort like another class, or an extension of the PAW Journey.

What about supporting the rest of the student athletes besides football? NIL is for all students not just football last time I checked.

I love Clemson and Dabo but this is getting ridiculous over there in the "off-limits" part of Campus. I am a graduate, donor and supporter of the Clemson fund so have every right to speak my mind.

All this roll out the red carpet for football prospects who of which will most likely get a free education, NIL money and a free ride is nuts. What will my IPTAY money really go to in 5 years...?

Not a fan of NIL.

I think all of those people who thought college athletes were being deprived a fair cut of revenue, are starting to see that NIL will soon corrupt college football. Most fans recognize that the problem with college football has been $$$ (e.g. coaches salaries). NIL won't fix that problem --- it just pumps gasoline on the fire. It makes me sick.

Agree! This experiment will NOT end well!!!

If a STUDENT athlete has to now prioritize their time between their scholarship sport, academics and studies or their new found social media bonanza money making entity, which do you believe will receive their focused attention?!!!
Our world has completely eliminated self-thought and common sense, just sayin'!!!

We knew this was all about football first, and basketball second. This is not just Clemson's thinking with this plan, this is what the whole NIL is about. There might be a rogue student athlete in softball or golf, but this is about the revenue sports. Clemson has to throw all their NIL weight into the football part, since that is their bread and butter. Clemson basketball isn't going to carry much weight.

I do not know if Clemson, being in a small town, and with a small alumni base, is going to be able to compete with USC (SoCal), Ohio State, Alabama, LSU, UGA, Miami, FSU, Michigan, Texas A&M, Texas, etc. This will likely end in the implosion of many major college football programs, with their ability to compete with the big boys, in big cities. Clemson, Iowa State, Purdue, Vanderbilt, Arkansas, Miss State, etc.

So long college football as we knew it. Clemson was fortunate to ride the wave at the end of real amateur football before the NIL tidal wave hit. Clemson will suffer I believe. Not enough rich alumni with major companies and businesses to be able to compete with what we already see falling into place. Clemson may become 3-star recruit U like USuC (UofSC).

I can see stories being written in 5 years about how NIL decimated LIL OLE CLEMSON

I know I am looking forward to the spike in crime rates at small college campuses like Clemson now that they will be flooded with NIL money.

So would this be available for all student athletes at Clemson or just football?

It says "Student-Athlete" but it is attached to the football facility.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-15yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I hope so

I really wouldn’t like it if it was only for football.

Is this so we don’t lose anymore 5 star DEs to Bama within 5 hours of a visit, when they are already coming here?
