Thank you all for your replies.

I have done all that you have recommended (I have hours and months in this endeavor). I first started to hustle up a deal with a player literally days after the Texas law changed. I actually had a NIL contract in place with a high profile football player very early on (before Amplify) when all contracts went through/to the University. As my deal was being 'approved/reviewed" by the University they realized they were not allowed to be doing this on behalf of the SA. At that point the University would neither confirm nor deny they even had my contract and everything just disappeared.

The SA, through his NIL rep (his uncle and later a professional marketing agent), explained that they were advised to hold off on everything until TAMU figured everything out. I was then told by my SA's marketing rep that Jimbo and the University were using language and tactics to scare/discourage players to not take NIL deals that required much of anything from them during the season or was not large amounts of money. So I gave up.

I then attended several on-line NIL seminars to educate myself and refine my approach and tactics. I also waited to allow the system to mature with the hopes that the fear and anxiety for everyone involved would allow more SAs/coaches/parents/uni officials to feel comfortable saying 'yes'. The research has lead to me to approach WBB during the off season. WBB is not the lowest in NIL recipients, but pretty darn low in total % of NIL deals and they have a very low per deal dollar amount.

I enjoy being a first mover and learning new things. I also enjoy supporting and shining light on those that have earned it, but might not naturally receive it. I think our WBB is a perfect fit.
