Dylan gifts to his teammates

Jacket look cool. Team looks like someone pissed them off.

Ace not wearing his. My guy looks like he's ready to get out of here lol

You guys are morons .. the first pic is them being like a “biker gang” cool guys - not “pissed off”, more of a “don’t mess with us”. Also, Ace wearing it off his shoulder is the style - see JWill wearing it exactly the same way. Give me a break losers

They do look miserable or maybe trying to be cool. Wonder what the clubhouse is like? Cant be much longer until things get ugly.

Love the one comment on Instagram “Ace looking like he is going to return it for some store credit” lmfao.

Best comment on Instagram is “nice, how will this help win games “

lol so true
 
I don't see why people have to rag on this. He gave his team mates a gift. Has nothing to do with playing the game. It was a nice gesture.
True . But also Rutgers didn’t have to post it all over social media promoting the gesture and using it as an advertisement

and a nice reinvestment of his NIL $ back into NIL money.

Why not?

Clearly they made the jackets available via the NIl store and are trying to sell them so why wouldn’t they use this as a catalyst.

I could give two shits was Instagram or any social media outlet says. It’s nice to find these things out from those outlets but besides the initial post any commentary on there is just worthless
 
Ok, I'm starting to understand where some of the commentary on this year's team is coming from. Lol that crowd doesn't like the NBA for whatever reason, they definitely don't like one and dones in the NIL era and playing for Rutgers? That crowd will have no patience for freshman trying to figure it out, only way they can accept this type of lavishness is if they win! I get it, but crazy amounts of money are generated, that money has to go somewhere, might as well go to the athletes..

There has been some truly stupid anti-NBA commentary here.

It's a whole thing with older people..I'm assuming they won't even like basketball anymore or maybe they will watch highschool or the ivy Leagues. Even high caliber highschool players are getting nil deals and transferring to powerhouses from smaller schools legally now..guess they will move on to hokey until that sport reaches their financial goals and start giving out half billion dollar contracts, there is some time left until that happens though for all of the anti capitalism folks.

NIL deals?
NIL is name, image and likeness.
What does that have to do with paying a high school kid to change schools

Means amateurism status doesn’t exist or doesn’t matter .
@zappaa we know that you know this. No need to play devils advocate
The toothpaste is out of the tube …you can’t get it back in as much as you want to
For better or worse , it’s the way it is

Ace and Dylan money wasn’t generated.
Those two are recipients of true NIL.

Fine, NIL it isn’t.
Why not just call it what it is, pay for play.

Yes. That’s how any job works ! You get paid to work or at least show up .

Tbh I don't know much about the finances of highschool football. I'm gonna assume that schools like Bergen Catholic and don Bosco make money some how? In a time when Catholic schools were going bankrupt because of all the settlements, the football powers were pouring money into their programs. They are marketing these teams so that I may want to go watch the Bergen Catholic game to see Quincy porter play or go check out Lamar best at sjr..so if a recruiter is offering to pay a player it's because the school wants to use the name image and likeness of the team to make money. They are part of the team....but again idk the finances of highschool football..
