Before you sign — anywhere

  • Disclose the deal to your school/AD within your state's window (often 3–14 days).
  • No school logos, uniforms, or facilities. No pay tied to performance.
  • NIL income is taxable self-employment income — even paid in free gear.
  • Get contracts reviewed. For small deals, a flat-fee attorney beats an agent's cut.
