Revenue sharing

So this has not passed yet.

but the thing I want to talk to you about is what really is your opinion on what has happened in college athletics compared to when you were coaching specifically on the rev share.

And we kind of talked about it yesterday, dad, because I think, you know, you were always such an advocate for the athlete.

So I always thought that you would be pro and, With pro this revenue share, meaning they're sharing in the revenue that the university makes on ticket sales, sponsors, selling their jerseys, that kind of stuff.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So if you look back on your career and think about different head coaches, like Coach Tomey, what do you think Coach Tomey would think about this? I think about him all the time because I think, what would Coach Tomey think about the NIL? What would he think about the Rev Share? Because he was also a big advocate for Lavelle.

I mean, these guys have all passed.

A- and a lot of fans is on their part.

I mean, seeing on social media, a lot of Southern Miss fans donate to the collective, donate to the university for Rev Share.

Many, many fans do their part, especially the younger crowd.

But I just, it, it, it always seems like it's never enough.

We're going to talk – Kurt Ross is going to be here in a few minutes.

We're going to talk rev share and how that thing works.

Lobo Hobo said yesterday, you said your Aztecs and CSU don't blow your socks off, Jeff.

I'd still take them back in the league in a heartbeat.

They're getting paid to play basketball.

They coined the term revenue sharing because they had to rationalize why they should pay them all of a sudden.

So they call it rev share.

If the contracts are NIL, they say we're paying for your name, image and likeness.

So that is one guy.

I saw a comment earlier, Jonah Williams, Jermaine Bishop, Michael Terry from NIL and Rev Share, you know, hope to see all of these guys on the field for...

But for Derrick Cooper specifically, he was one that will be active according to Steve Sarkisian and back on the field.

I, I gotta ask you, the big topic, uh, today though was not the injury update from Steve Sarkisian.
