Lehigh even put an official statement out  about it.  Can’t imagine that’s happened often

The Lehigh statement is an interesting read, especially in today's climate.

Three grand can be life changing!

I think you underestimate the number of individuals that own businesses who have are interested in being associated with a D1 program.  Friend of mine's son has a NIL deal with a local business for $300-400 per month.  Gets a little more to make appearances.  The program is in the top 20-25 range.  Wrestler is ranked in the 20-30 range at his weight and there are 4-5 starters with higher rankings on the team.

OK... so $300 a month is life changing?

Sorry, responded to the wrong message.  I was referencing the one by someone else saying "maybe 20 wrestlers getting more than 1-2K a year off of NIL at the D1 level."  I'm saying if the 5th-6th best kid on a 20ish ranked team is getting $3000-5000 a year, its way more than 20 kids getting over $1000.  And the top kids are getting way more money than that poster believes.

Basically a free portion for rent.  I know I would have loved 300 a month in college.

NO! Means no...."no, stop it, you're being so bad," that does not mean no!

$300-$400 a month the entire year, or just during the season?
