[QUOTE="Consigliere, post: 5069245, member: 559"]
I purposely said entity rather than collective. For men’s basketball OrangeUnited is the only grass roots level public collective I am aware of. The first collective was the 315 Foundation but  I don’t believe they are still soliciting donations focusing instead on their Elite NIL arm that matches businesses with athletes for high level one off type transactions. There are other small private groups  involved and, through the INFLCR platform a channel that enables businesses and individual to transact with the players one on one. I know of at least a couple of these that have done high level (six figure) deals with Syracuse basketball players.
Football is different where, in addition to OrangeUnited we have Athletes who Care and Syracuse Football NIL all as recognized collectives, not to mention the SyraCRUZ Tailgate NIL Initiative .

These groups are all recognized by SU with Orange United being named the preferred NIL partner. I think they all take a slightly different approach but agree it can be confusing to the individual donor. I have suggested that SUAD publish a white paper outlining the groups, which sports they support and their individual missions as a way to help donors get involved and stress that NIL is not something that is successful solely through OPM - Other People’s Money. Hopefully that happens soon.
