I would need to see what the NIL contract says. My initial guess is no. NIL is name, image. and likeness. Each party benefitted from the transaction. Player gets paid and company gets to use their NIL in advertisements, parties, get togethers, fairs, carnivals etc. Each party benefitted from the transaction. It's a slippery slope if players get sued because they didn't get the return they had anticipated.

I'm sure they respected his play. All that equity was pissed into the gutter.

If he received any NIL can he be sued for breach for what he has already gotten?

Based on the Tweeter App and player tweeters there is not.

Wasn't there a montage on the last episode of the Reb Zone about players saying they love Sluka? I didn't see it.
Dude was a warrior, I am sure he had friends on the team.
But turning your back like this typically sours relationships.

I don't get the hate with this one. HE expected to play, he didn't, he has one more year of college football. HE should be able to end his career playing on the field.

I'd give anything to go back for one last season as the sexiest libero in D2 volleyball.

Dude. Vegas hose water after a good afternoon playing in the hot LAs Vegas sun because your parents kicked you out and told you not to come home until the reruns of M*A*S*H* started was de.lish.us.

There was always the dumb kid who would forget the first 25 seconds of hosewater was 350 degrees. dummy.

I remember being 11-12 years old and my parents would give us $20 to go see a movie. We would ride our bikes from Gowan and Jones (ish) to the Redrock Theaters. Parents were bonkers back then. We'd movie hop and hope to get into a rated R movie.

Who was the 12 piece McNugget poster? He and I ended up being really cool after his initial "bat-outta-hell" stage.

I wish I would have screen shot that entire thread. Not going to lie, I "was" a snarky a-hole who enjoyed getting under people's skin. In my defense I did wear a tshirt with "reagan21" across the front to all the RN events and BBQs

It's not a great legal analysis. He's simply just repeating what is in the complaint. Beav fans gonna Beav.

Michael Allen did the right thing and came out to say his leaving had NOTHING to do with NIL. Even the dudes on their way out are taking shots at Sluka.

Yes. Right thing, good follow up... The timing sucks... lol

THIS should be put on a poster. Only Rebel-Netters from 2013-15 would get it but

"Matt Sluka like Bomb Ass Lemonades" or "Sluka deserves a 12 piece McNugget". os "Sluka....meet me at Sunset Park!"

Man those were the days.

Definitely. 🤣

What an idiot. And he got a degree?

This whole NIL thing is confusing. It's not really well defined, and is different from state to state it seems. Some saying you can't have an agreement in place until your on campus, others saying that's not true. IDK. I'm not even sure if the universities know exactly how it all works. Leaves a lot to be desired which will definitely result in confusion and misunderstandings between the schools/NIL/players.

He just layed things out in the best way possible to his 2.2 million followers. This is the best publicity we could have asked for up to this point.

Ok so let me ask this.

Why is the conference not already dissolved?

We are at 7 technically 6 with Hawaii as football only.

I get that the conference is intact for another year.

However in 2026 we no longer even qualify for a conference. Couldn't an argument be made that with media rights, scheduling etc UNLV and the rest of the remaining schools should be allowed to leave based on the uncertainty?

Say UNLV and AF toe the line.

There is absolutely no guarantee that the MWC and it's commissioner are going to even be able to fill the remaining empty spots for the MWC to even qualify as a conference.

In that scenario UNLV would be screwed right? A free agent who's only opportunity would be to go independent.

I know there are basically two camps to this. Get the Hell out of MWC now and stay put and collect the money.

I recognize the risks involved in both and the potential benefits in both.

I don't think this would happen but let's say MWC is unable to attract any new members? What then?

PAC got down to 2, and were still a conference, they have a 2 year window. THe MW has a 4ish window as of now.

Sorry buddy, you say 2 different things in successive posts. You sure you didn't come from my Board and assume a different handle?

And semi related, there were basically no exit fees for the Pac traitors because the media contract had expired. I still am not quite sure how we wrangled the $65M from them.

They announced leaving and played out an entire season. That is 1 season season of a contract, right?
It was also a record year for the pac 12 with each team receiving 37 million dollars ( not just media rights).

Pac-12 Set High Revenue Mark in FY23, While School Payouts Sank

While the conference brought in almost $604 million, members saw their distributions shrink by about $3 million from the previous fiscal year.

www.sportico.com

The MW is in the same boat, except it is 2 years away, not one. And that our contract is significantly less. But we don't have a contract beyond next season, just like you didn't have a contract beyond that final season.

Yes sorry I did say technically 2 separate things. I should have said "New PAC teams" instead of PAC. Excuuuuuuuuse me.

You still didn't answer my question. How much of YOUR post was pulled from your butt and how much was an actual report?
