" You bring up a very interesting wrinkle here regarding the Youschool directly or indirectly paying the athletes. If Saban gives to a charity that then funds an NIL like this, or puts in his contract that his employer donate to his charity of choice, or that his independent football camp employs as brand ambassadors his players, or pays them appearance fees…"

Why i think the NCAA should have had a more comprehensive NIL policy. Perhaps they will.   A coach should have every right for a player to be a brand ambassador for his non university affiliated camp... Kids gonna wanna get paid, though.  Stuff like that should definitely have some caps, if that's even legal.

If I were a booster, I would certainly try to funnel $$ to players through some form of charitable contribution.(taxes).  And yes, also make sure the charity received a healthy donation. It looks pretty darn good if I gave to the Boys and Girls club.  Athletes show up regularly, and help some kids- of which more will attend..  From a booster, athlete, and community perspective? That's a win win. If the charity received at least 51% of the donation? I'd applaud it.
