CREDIBLE THREAT. IT’S NOW TIME FOR THE WEEKLY WITH NEWS 00:00AM MORNING ANCHOR JUSTIN
WAR.
>> THIS IS THE WEEKLY ON
CLICKORLANDO DOT COM WITH
JUSTIN WARMOTH.
>> GOOD MORNING. I’M JUSTIN
WARMOTH. A NEW ERA IN COLLEGE
SPORTS IS HERE JUST OVER A
WEEK AGO. THE NCAA CHANGED ITS
RULES. SO COLLEGE ATHLETES
COULD PROFIT OFF THEIR NAME
IMAGE AND LIKENESS KNOWN BY
ITS ABBREVIATION IN. I L THE
LAW ALLOWS ATHLETES TO MAKE
MONEY FOR THINGS LIKE
ENDORSEMENT DEALS, SIGNING
AUTOGRAPHS, SOCIAL MEDIA
CONSENT. BUT EVEN THOUGH IT
STARTED, THERE’S STILL A LOT
OF CONFUSION ABOUT THESE NEW
RULES. FORMER UCF FOOTBALL
PLAYER AND CO-FOUNDER AND CEO
OF GM TM. JOEY GRANTS IS HERE
TO BREAK DOWN WHAT THIS MEANS
FOR THE FUTURE OF COLLEGE
ATHLETICS.
>> TALK ABOUT YOUR TIME AT UCF
WHEN YOU WERE THERE. WHAT
POSITION YOU PLAN AND WHAT
YOUR EXPERIENCE WAS LIKE. YES.
SO I USE. BORN AND RAISED IN
ORLANDO. WE ARE BOTH LAKE
BRANTLEY GRADUATES. BUT I
DIDN’T GO TOO FAR WITH UCF OF
FROM 2,011.0. 15.
>> I ACTUALLY BROUGHT UP WAS A
BASEBALL BUT WHAT I WANT TO
USE. YEAH. PUT ON SOME PLAYED
CENTER. STARTED FOR THE
KNIGHTS OR THE 4 YEARS BETWEEN
THAT ATTACK ON SEN. WHAT A
FIESTA BALL WITH MY GOOD
BUDDY, BLAKE A TEAM. IT’S
MURRAY HEAD OF THE TEAM THAT
COACH O’LEARY TOOK TO THE
FIESTA BALL OR HELP THAT YOU
SEE UP ON THE AND PLAYED MY
DAYS HERE IN ORLANDO AND FOR
THE THE HOME FRONT MOTOWN FANS
IT WAS A GREAT EXPERIENCE.
REALLY ENJOYED DEALER. HOW DID
YOU.
>> COME UP WITH THE IDEA TO
CREATE THIS PLATFORM FOR
ATHLETES TO GET MORE EXPOSURE
TO SCHOOLS AND HELP THEM WITH
THE RECRUITING PROCESS. HOW
DID IT ALL COME TO SHAPE AN
INCOME. YOU EXPLAIN WHAT I’M
GMT AND DOES. YEAH,
ABSOLUTELY. SO, SO SIMMONS AND
THAT I WOULD THINK OF IT AS A
LEAD-IN FOR WHERE THE IDEA
CAME ABOUT. OBVIOUSLY THAT
PLAYED AT PLAY FOOTBALL FOR
THE KNIGHTS.
>> I ALSO WORKING TO FOR VERY
FOR COACH FALSE. AND YOU KNOW,
THAT’S REALLY WHERE I ON ONE
SIDE ATHLETES WHO REALLY
WANTED AN OPPORTUNITY, AN
OPPORTUNITY TO GET A
SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITY. YOU
KNOW, INVESTING IN MIKE ROUNDS
TO MAKE IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL.
THEN ON THE OTHER STARTING TO
SEE IF ORGANIZATION BASIS,
WHETHER IT’S COLLEGE OR OTHER
ORGANIZATIONS GENERAL. CANS.
YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT WAYS WHERE
ATHLETES ARE LOOKING TO GET
RECOGNIZED. THEY DON’T REALLY
HAVE THE TOOLS PUT IN PLACE TO
REALLY IDENTIFY BEST BILL
RELATIONSHIP CAN BEST ENGAGE
WITH SO WHAT YOU HAVE TO AS A
PLATFORM FOR ORGANIZATIONS.
THE BEST MARKET OPPORTUNITIES.
YOU KNOW, VISITS FOR THEIR
UNIVERSITIES THAT EDUCATE
ATHLETES ABOUT A SCHOLARSHIP
OPPORTUNITY. NOW. IT’S REALLY
EXPANDED FROM JUST THE COLLEGE
FREE MARKET FROM, YOU KNOW,
NOW WE HAVE 13 TEEN USA
NATIONAL GOVERNING THAT USE
OUR PLATFORM FOR TELLING
IDENTIFICATION FOR MARKETING.
TO BUILDING THE THAT IT’S ALL
ON THE PREMISE OF, YOU KNOW,
ATHLETES ONE OPPORTUNITY IN
MULTIPLE FORMS FROM THE TIME
THEY START PLAYING COMPETITIVE
ITS YOUTH SPORTS ALL THROUGH,
YOU KNOW, HIGH SCHOOL COLLEGE,
WHEREVER THEY ARE. AND POINT
IN ATHLETICS. WE’RE CONTINUING
TO OPPORTUNITIES IN ALL BUT 4
VOTES FIRST HARVEST, THOSE
OPPORTUNITIES ON BEHALF OF THE
ORGANIZATION AND THEN ENGAGING
SEAMLESSLY THROUGH THE
PLATFORM. WHERE THE RESULT
THAT IS A PROFILE OF DIGITAL
RECORD WHERE THEY HAVE THEIR
HIGHLIGHTS THEIR VIDEOS.
EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM AS AN
ATHLETE BUT SAYS WHO THEY ARE,
WHAT THEY KNOW OF PUBLICLY
AVAILABLE FOR ORGANIZATIONS,
OTHER BE ABLE TO SEE.
>> HOW HAS THE PANDEMIC AND
THE THE LACK OF FACE TO FACE
INTERACTION AND MOVED TO THIS
MORE DIGITAL WORLD. HOW IS
THAT IMPACTING YOUR COMPANY.
>> IT’S BEEN IT’S BEEN I THINK
YOU COULD EVEN BEFORE THE
PANDEMIC GET THE REALLY WANT
TO USE TECHNOLOGY TO HELP BEST
EXPORTS. YOU LOOK THROUGH THE
INDUSTRIES AND USE THE
TECHNOLOGY. WHAT IT DOES IS
INCREASES ACCESS IN A REALLY
PUTS THE CALLS. SO FOR
ATHLETES WERE LOOKING TO GET
NOTICE THAT USUALLY HAVE TO
PAY TO TRAVEL DUE HIM TO
TRAVEL TO GO TO A BUSINESS.
AND SO WE’VE ALWAYS HAD THE
VISION OF HOW CAN WE MAKE THIS
ACCESSIBLE AS POSSIBLE.
PANDEMIC WAS A LITTLE BIT OF A
FORCING FUNCTION WERE NOW ALL
OF A SUDDEN SPORTS OPERATES OF
VISIT. WE WEAR EVERY EVERY
ORGANIZATION IN SPORTS HAS NOW
CUT OFF FROM THEIR ATHLETES
CUT OFF FROM THEIR NETWORK AND
ABILITY TO FIND YOU THAT
SPORTS WAS MORE EFFECTIVE THAN
IT WAS IN WORLD WAR 2 AND SO
WILL BE WORK TO DO WAS PROVIDE
SOLUTIONS. IN THROUGH WE WERE
ABLE TO SEE YOU KNOW,
ORGANIZATIONS LIKE TEAM USA
BOBSLEDDER WHO COULDN’T RUN
ONE OF ONE SHOW NEEDS TO FIND
ATHLETES WITHIN A MONTH. YOU
KNOW, BE ABLE TO FIND 10 OF 36
THAT WENT UP THE PARK CITY, 10
THAT ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO BE
ON US A BOBSLED AFFILIATED
TEAM. WE SAW THE VISION TO
DIVISION 3 COLLEGES BE ABLE TO
FEEL ALMOST 40%, OF THEIR
RECRUITING BY DOING DIFFERENT
THINGS LIKE VIRTUAL VISITS
AGAIN. JUST INCREASING SO I
WOULD SAY SPORTS IS IT’S A
LAGGARD INDUSTRY. COACHES OR
THEIR OLD-SCHOOL REVENUE.
THINK OF COACHES. YOU THINK OF
OLD-SCHOOL TRIED AND TRUE. AND
SO THAT THEY’RE NOT TO REALLY
JUMP ON TECHNOLOGY AND BUT THE
PANDEMIC BROUGHT IN THE
UNFORTUNATE TIME WAS CALLS FOR
EVERYBODY TO LOOK FOR OTHER
SOLUTIONS WE HAPPENED TO BE
AND AGAIN, THE MISSION IS
AROUND INCREASING ACCESS AND
PROVIDING OPPORTUNITIES FOR
ATHLETES AT THE END OF THE
DAY, THAT’S SOMETHING EVERY
ORGANIZATION AROUND SPEAKING
OF.
>> LAGGARD MAYBE LETTING THE
PAST A LITTLE BIT THE AND I
YELLED AND MANAGING IMAGE.
LIKENESS RULING IS SORT OF A
LONG TIME COMING. BUT I WANT
TO GET YOUR REACTION SOME TO A
FEW WEEKS AGO WHEN THAT REALLY
CAME DOWN. WHAT DID YOU THINK
AND HOW WOULD YOU USE THAT
RULING TO YOUR BENEFIT WHILE
YOU’RE IN SCHOOL.
>> YEAH, I WOULD FIRST LIKE
YOU SAID, I THINK A LONG TIME.
NO I THINK, YOU KNOW, WHEN
WHEN YOU LOOK AT ATHLETES IN
JET IN GENERAL. I THINK THE
INTERESTING THING ATHLETES OR
THE REALLY THE BASIS OF SPORT,
WHETHER IT’S YES. YEAH, THE
NBA IS LARGELY MET BILLION
DOLLAR ORGANIZATION AT THE
CENTER OF EVERYTHING IS THE
APPLICANT, THE ATHLETE IN
THEIR PERFORMANCE. THE WE IN
THEIR CONTENT. THE AND THEIR
IMPACT AND FOLLOWING FROM FANS
AND OTHER ATHLETES. THAT’S
WHAT SPORTS IT’S IT’S IT’S
GOTTEN TO BE VERY VERY
ORGANIZATION BASED IN YOUR
HEAD BUT AT THE CORE IS EVEN
WHEN IT’S LIKE THIS REPRESENTS
IS THAT, YOU KNOW, ESSENTIALLY
WHEN YOU. DOUBLE IN THE FIGHT
AND JURORS AND BEFORE YOUR
PROFESSIONAL AND YOU CAN’T
PROFIT ON THE FOLLOWING THE
YOU KNOW WHAT, WHAT YOU ARE ME
ME FOR FOR A BUSINESS, FOR AN
ATHLETE FOR YOUR WANT TO
PURCHASE ANY INFORMATION,
WHETHER IT’S YOU OR ON THE
GROUND OR WHETHER IT’S YOU
KNOW. LESS SAID ANYTHING AND
SO THIS HAS BEEN REALLY YOU
KNOW, NOT CONSISTENT IN TERMS
OF WHAT STUDENTS HAVE BEEN
ABLE TO DO BEING ABLE TO GET A
JOB. SO IT REALLY HASN’T MADE
MUCH SENSE. BUT IT REALLY
OPENS UP, YOU A PLETHORA OF
OPPORTUNITY FOR THE ATHLETE.
HOW WOULD I TAKING ADVANTAGE?
I’M NOT COMPLETELY SURE
BECAUSE SOCIAL MEDIA THINGS
HAVE CHANGED SO MUCH SINCE I
WAS IN SCHOOL. WHAT I FIRST
WAS AT ARE DOWNLOADING MY
INSTAGRAM. I REMEMBER FOOT
BOOSTING MY FIRST PHOTOS NOW
WE’VE SEEN THE RISE OF
INFLUENCER MARKETING. AND I
THINK, YOU KNOW THAT THESE ARE
SOME SPECIFIC MISSIONS THAT
AND THAT WILL GET BROKEN DOWN.
WHERE, YOU KNOW RIGHT NOW IS
PEOPLE UNDERSTAND AND AND
SPONSORSHIPS AND
OPPORTUNITIES. NO, REALLY.
THIS IS TALKING ABOUT THE
INFLUENCER MARKETING AND THE
ABILITY FOR ATHLETES THAT INTO
WINSTON TUMORS ON PURCHASING
DIFFERENT THINGS. THAT’S WHAT
HISTORICALLY INFLUENCE THE
MARKET MARKETING HAS BEEN I
THINK THAT THAT’S GOING TO A
VERY, VERY SMALL PORTION OF
WHAT THIS AS WE GO BACK TO THE
FIRST POINT OF ATHLETES AND
THEIR INFLUENCE IN GENERAL. I
THINK THERE THAT FOR KIND OF
LIMITING STRUCTURE. ATHLETES
HAVEN’T REALLY DIDN’T RAISE
MUCH TO BE INFLUENCER
MARKETERS PER SE BUT IN
GENERAL WITH AGAIN, THEIR
IMPACT ON THE UNIT IN WITH
THEIR IMPACT AND BEING ABLE TO
GIVE KNOWLEDGE AND LEARNINGS
TO OTHER ATHLETES WHO ARE
SEEKING AN OPPORTUNITY. AND SO
THAT’S REALLY KIND OF WHERE
WE’RE FOSTER IS THE HOLISTIC
VIEW OF AN WHERE ALL THE
DIFFERENT WAYS THAT YOU CAN
MAKE MONEY. HAVE MORE FROM
JULIE GRANT COMING UP,
INCLUDING HOW THE NEW NAME
IMAGE AND LIKENESS RULES.
>> COULD AFFECT THE RECRUITING
PROCESS STAY WITH US.
>> THIS IS THE WEEKLY ON CLICKORLANDO DOT COM WITH JUSTIN WARMOTH. WELCOME BACK.
THIS MORNING WE’RE HELPING YOU
BETTER UNDERSTAND THE NEW
RULES AFFECT IN COLLEGE
ATHLETICS. THE NCAA NOW
ALLOWING ATHLETES TO PROFIT
OFF THEIR NAME IMAGE AND
LIKENESS.
>> OR N I L AND THE STATE OF
FLORIDA PLAYED A MAJOR ROLE IN
MAKING THAT HAPPEN. THE CEO
AND CO-FOUNDER OF GMT. I’M
JULIE GRAHAM WHO ALSO PLAYED
FOOTBALL AT UCF IS BACK WITH
US NOW TO EXPLAIN WHY HE
BELIEVES THERE’S MORE TO NIL.
THEN ATHLETES JUST MAKING
MONEY ON SOCIAL MEDIA.
>> I WANT TO HAMMER HOME ON
MISSION ASPECT OF THE
OPPORTUNITIES BECAUSE IT I
ALSO SEE FOR THE ATHLETES
YOU’RE STARTING TO SEE, YOU
KNOW, COACHES WOULD SAY
ATHLETES DON’T BE DISTRACTED.
DON’T DON’T. ALL OF A SUDDEN
TRY TO BE AN MARKETING. WHAT
WE’RE REALLY PASSIONATE ABOUT
IS AT THE END OF THE DAY,
AGAIN, PROFILE CONTENT THAT
MAKES UP THE OPPORTUNITY. SO
OR, YOU KNOW, FOR YOU AS IT AS
IS A DIVISION. 2 DIVISION. 3
BASEBALL PLAYER. EVERY SINGLE
DAY. YOU’RE WORKING ON YOUR
CRAFT, WHETHER IT’S TAKING
INFIELD, WHETHER IT’S STUDYING
FILM. ALL OF THESE DIFFERENT
THINGS. WHAT WE’RE SEEING
RIGHT NOW IS IS THIS CONTENT
IS BECOMING MORE AND MORE
RELEVANT FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT
TO EVALUATE SO FOR A DIVISION.
2, A DIVISION. 3 DIVISION, ONE
ATHLETE TO BE POSTING ABOUT,
YOU KNOW, THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF A
COVER 2 SCHEME OR COVER 3
SCHEME OR DEFENSE. THAT’S VERY
RELEVANT FOR PEOPLE WHO WANT
TO SEE GIVE THEM AN
OPPORTUNITY NOW AT A CERTAIN
THRESHOLD THAT IS ALSO REALLY,
REALLY INTERESTING AND
INTRIGUING BASEBALL KNOWLEDGE
FOR OTHER MIGHT WANT THAT
INFORMATION OR A YOUNG HIGH
SCHOOL QUARTERBACK THAT HASN’T
QUITE GOTTEN NUMBER 3. TO WEAR
THEIR PROFILE OF RECORD CAN BE
BENEFICIAL AND IN WAYS WHERE
NOT ONLY IS THIS LISTED FOR
THE PURPOSE OF AN OPPORTUNITY.
BUT NOW AGAIN, AT A CERTAIN
POINT IT’S BECOME THE MAGIC
EDUCATIONAL THAT CAN BE
MONETIZE IT. AND MOST
IMPORTANTLY ITS FOCUS FOR THE
WERE NOT TELLING THE ATHLETES
PAY. YOU’VE WORKED THROUGH 20
A YEAR FOR 20 YEARS TO BE A
BASEBALL PLAYER. NOW WE’RE
GOING TO TEACH YOU TAKE TALK
DANCES IN BOTH LEE. YOU YOU
PROCTOR AND GAMBLE YOU KNOW,
THIS IS THIS KIND OF I THINK
SOME OF THE FALSE PROMISES OF
NIL THAT, YOU KNOW, WE’RE
GOING TO BE REALLY LOOKING
HELP CORRECT FOR THE ATHLETE.
YEAH. HOW DO YOU THINK THIS
WILL AFFECT RECRUITING. WE’RE
I THINK IT’S EVOLVING EVERY
DAY. YOU JUST USE ALL THE
MIAMI ANNOUNCEMENT COME YOU
KNOW, I THINK THE 500 MILLION
IS GOING TO BE COMMITTED TO
NIL. I THINK IT’S THAT WILL
HAVE ON THIS WILL BE REALLY,
REALLY INTERESTING LOOK OUT
YOU KNOW, THE STATE OF
FLORIDA, CALIFORNIA DIFFERENT
STATES ARE HANDLING YOU KNOW,
THINGS DIFFERENTLY. NOW THE
NCAA HAS COME OUT WITH MORE.
YOU KNOW, BOY UNDERSTANDING
AND AND HOW HOW THIS WILL BE
HANDLED. I THINK HIGH SCHOOL
BE SOMETHING TO LOOK OUT FOR.
BUT I THINK IT’S REALLY GOING
TO BE YOU KNOW, MONITORED BY,
YOU KNOW HOW THESE
ORGANIZATIONS VIEW IT HANDLE
IT. AND I THINK ON THE OTHER
END, HOW OH, REALLY, YOU KNOW,
DEALING WITH THIS NEW YOU’RE
SEEING, YOU’RE GOING TO PLAY
OUT DIFFERENT WAYS WHERE YOU
WOULDN’T NECESSARILY EXPECT.
WOULD YOU EXPECT ONE OF THE
FIRST DEALS WITH THE YOU KNOW,
THEY’RE PAYING, YOU KNOW,
SIGNING COLLEGE HAULING JUNK.
YOU KNOW, IT’S I THINK IT’S
VERY UNPREDICTABLE RIGHT NOW.
I THINK WE’LL SEE 3 TO 6
MONTHS OF A LOT OF ACTIVITY, A
LOT OF ORGANIZATIONS AND
ATHLETES TRYING DIFFERENT
THINGS AND OUR GOAL IS TO TO
REALLY BE FUNDAMENTAL
UNDERSTANDING THAT SPORTS AND
OF OPPORTUNITIES. YOU KNOW
WHAT? WE’RE THE REAL VALUE
LIES AND BE KIND OF A
CONSISTENT BIGS YOU KNOW, TO
COME BACK TO YOU AFTER ALL
VOLATILITY.
>> YEAH, IT IS SUPER YOU KNOW,
I IT SEEMS LIKE THEY’RE TRYING
TO BUILD PLANE AND THAT’S IT’S
GOING TO COME. BUT LIKE THE
TIMELINE IT WILL COME
TOGETHER. BUT IN THE MEANTIME,
YOU’RE SEEING GUYS LIKE DOING
GABRIEL AS WELL. CREATING A
KNOWN BRAND CREATING A WEB
SITE AND A WAY TO MONETIZE HIS
OWN BRAND WITHOUT DOING
ANYTHING EXTRA HERE. HE HAS
BRAND. BUT NOW WAY TO MONETIZE
THAT BRAND AND NOT EVERYONE IS
DOING GABRIEL DIVISION ONE AND
THAT’S YOUR POINT. THEN. I
THINK THAT’S THAT’S THE
IMPORTANT POINT TO HAMMER
HOME. THIS. YEAH. IF YOU HAVE
A BIG FOLLOWING ALREADY. THIS
WILL CERTAINLY MAYBE ASSIST IN
YOU KNOW, GETTING THOSE AD
DOLLARS FOR POSTER. WE’RE
DOING SOMETHING ELSE THAT THAT
WOULD CREATE SOME MONEY. BUT.
BUT REALLY IT’S IT’S JUST THE
WAY BECAUSE SO MANY PLAYERS
HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED. I HAVE
BEEN I HAD TO MAKE A DECISION
ON WHETHER TO PURSUE MY CAREER
AND YOUTUBE OR CONTINUE TO
PLAY. AND THIS WILL REALLY
JUST MAKE THAT A LOT MORE
SEAMLESS AND EASY AND THE
DECISIONS WON’T BE AS POINT
LIKE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT.
YOU KNOW, WORRIED ABOUT GOING
TO TO LUNCH WITH SOMEONE. I
MEAN, THAT’S. THAT’S HOW
STRICT THE NCAA WAS ON THIS.
AND THAT’S WHY I THINK IT’S
HIS JOB TO A SHOCKING RULING
BECAUSE IT REALLY DOES TAKE
TAKES A BLOW HERE. WELL, AND I
THINK IT’S IT’S JUST IT’S
INEVITABLE. THE END OF THE
DAY, THAT’S IN THE FIRST
PORTION OF THE CONVERSATION
ATHLETES SORTS OF VALUE
ATHLETES. AND THE REASON THAT
FINANCE THEM OUT THERE WHY
THEY WANTED TO GET IN.
>> AND AND AT THE END OF THE
DAY, ATHLETES WORKING
EXTREMELY EXTREMELY BORDER
GRASS AND OUR KNOW PEOPLE THAT
PEOPLE LOOK UP TO PEOPLE WATCH
PEOPLE FANS OF. SO I’VE SEEN A
DOZEN AS AS RT OF A NEVER
GOING TO END ITS, YOU KNOW, AN
INCREDIBLE TIME BE IN THE
STATES AND BE WORKING TO HELP
PROVIDE TOOLS FOR THE
ATHLETES. YOU KNOW, TO YOUR
POINT ON THE ON DOING THE
REAL. I THINK YOU KNOW, AGAIN,
THIS THIS KIND OF. SHOULD BE
ABLE TO EVERY ADVANTAGE. BUT
STARTING A WEBSITE STARTING
MERCHANDISING. YOU KNOW, WE’RE
WARREN TRACKING SALES, YOU
KNOW, FINDING USERS FINDING
PEOPLE WHO ARE INTERESTED IN
FINDING BUYERS. THESE ARE ALL
VERY COMPLEX. VERY THINGS FOR
ATHLETES BUT LEARNED
SIMULTANEOUSLY. AND THIS IS
WHERE AGAIN, WE’RE LOOKING TO
HELP EDUCATE, YOU KNOW, FOR
DILLON GABRIEL YOU CAN GO OUT
AND YOU CAN SO, YOU KNOW, ALL
OF THESE THINGS, THE UCF FANS
THROUGH OUR PLATFORM. WE ALSO
HAVE 11 DOES THEIR INDIVIDUAL
PRO DAY WHERE THE 450
QUARTERBACKS ARE COMING FOR
SUBMITTING DIFFERENT VIDEOS
LOOKING FOR EDUCATIONAL
CONTENT. WE HAVE OTHER
DIVISION. 3 DIVISION, 3, YOU
KNOW, DIVISION ONE PROGRAMS
WHO ARE REACHING OUT TO
QUARTERBACKS ACROSS THE
COUNTRY FOR THE PURPOSES OF
OPPORTUNITY AND HE HAS A
REALLY INTERESTING STILL SEND
KNOWLEDGE BASE. AND SO NO, I
THINK, AGAIN, IT’S A BALANCING
ACT FOR ALL OF THESE THINGS.
DIFFERENT ATHLETES WILL BE
ABLE TO HAVE THAT. ALEC THE
DIFFERENT DEMAND AND RESOURCES
SITUATE ALL THESE THINGS, BUT
IT DEFINITELY IS GOING TO BE A
ONE SIZE FITS ALL FACE. WHAT
WOULD YOU SAY TO CRITICS WHO.
>> BELIEVE THAT A STUDENT
ATHLETE SHOULD BE THANKFUL FOR
THE SCHOLARSHIP THAT HERE SHE
MAY HAVE AND TO FOCUS ON
SCHOOL AND SPORT AND WORRY
ABOUT GETTING PAID AFTER THEIR
COLLEGE YEARS.
>> I WOULD SAY THAT EVERY, YOU
KNOW, AT THE END OF THE DAY,
EVERYBODY HAS THEIR OWN LIVES
IN TOTAL TO THEIR OWN BUT
ALSO, YOU KNOW, THE OBJECTIVE
FACTS ABOUT SPORTS IT’S SPORTS
OR ESSENTIALLY THE MARKETING.
ALL FOR FREE UNIVERSITY FOR
COLLEGE. THOSE ATHLETES WHO
ARE ON THE FIELD. THEY ARE
DRIVING YOU NOTES ON SATURDAY
IS ON SUNDAYS, ON THURSDAY AS
THEY’RE DRIVING THE EYEBALLS
THAT DRIVE ADMISSIONS THE
DRIVE MONEY AND ENDOWMENTS
THAT MAY WE’LL SLOW AND
BASICALLY WHAT PEOPLE ARE
SAYING IS YOU KNOW, THESE
PEOPLE WHO ARE PROVIDING ALL
OF THIS VALUE TO COLLEGES ALL
OF THE ACCESS TO OPPORTUNITIES
IN SPORTS FOR, YOU KNOW, 1215,
20 OTHER SPORTS SOMETIMES FOR
COLLEGES. THAT THAT THE THAT
THE ZAP WE SHOULD JUST BE
HAPPY. YOU KNOW, REVERSE
TOWNSHIP THAT VERY WELL MAY BE
TRUE. BUT ALSO WE’RE NOT, YOU
KNOW, LIMITING SOCIETY WHERE
FREE SOCIETY IN A FREE MARKET
WHERE PEOPLE MAKE DECISIONS.
YOU KNOW, WE HAVE SUPPLY AND
DEMAND ECONOMICS THAT HAVE
BEEN, YOU KNOW, BASICALLY CUT
OFF FROM ALL ATHLETES. AND SO,
YOU KNOW, ALTHOUGH THIS IS A
CHANGE. YOU KNOW, IT’S NOT
TRYING STEAL FROM PETER TO
PAY. PAUL TAIT SITUATION WORDS
STEALING MONEY. THIS THESE ARE
ATHLETES THAT PROVIDE VALUE
DAY IN AND DAY OUT FOR THESE
UNIVERSITIES. BUT THEY HAVE A
MARKET VALUE THAT COMES WITH
THIS BASED OFF OF, YOU KNOW,
SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT, ALL OF
THESE THINGS THAT HAVE COME
ABOUT AND NOW. THE TIME HAS
COME WHERE THIS IS NOW BEING
RECOGNIZED. AND YOU KNOW, I
SEE THE TREND WILL CONTINUE
AND I THINK. MORE AND MORE
VALUABLE GOES TO WILL GO TO
ATHLETES OVER THE NEXT 5
YEARS. OVER THE NEXT 10 YEARS.
OVER THE NEXT 15 YEARS. IT’S
IT’S YOU KNOW, WE TALKED
ABOUT, YOU KNOW, INVESTING
FROM TIME TO TIME. IF TAKE A
LONG, LONG VIEW OF COMPANIES
OF TESLA, THESE DIFFERENT
THINGS AND YOU DECIDE TO SO.
WILL IT BE MORE POPULAR LESS
POPULAR ATHLETES BECOME MORE
FOLLOWED, YOU KNOW, FROM THE
TIME THAT THEY BREAK THE
SCENE. THEY HAVE CONTENT THAT
WILL BE FOLLOWED OR WILL THEY
BE LESS FOLLOWED
OVERWHELMINGLY. I THINK CASE
WILL BE, YOU KNOW, BE MORE
FOLLOWED YOU KNOW, MORE VALUE
WILL CONTINUE TO GO TO THE SO
BOTTOM LINE, STUDENT ATHLETES
CERTAINLY HAVE A LOT TO LOOK
FORWARD TO A BIG THANK YOU TO
JULIE GRANT FOR JOINING US
THIS MORNING.
>> TO CHECK OUT HIS ATHLETE
EXPOSURE PLATFORM JUST HEAD TO
GMT M DOT COM. I’M JUSTIN
WARMOTH. HAVE A GREAT SUNDAY.
