Deion Sanders Takes a Stand on NIL and Collectives.

Deion Sanders, head football coach at Colorado, supports Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) but is against Collectives, which he believes are just boosters throwing cash at players who have yet to prove their worth. Sanders wants players to earn money from on-field production and focus on getting the NFL bag, not just a temporary one in college. He is concerned that young athletes are getting paid before setting foot on a college campus and may lose their incentive to get better. Sanders wants players to be comfortable but to focus on the NFL bag, which will pay off more in the long run.

Deion Sanders Takes on Collectives and NIL in Colorado Coaching Gig.

Deion Sanders, head coach of Colorado, supports college football players profiting off of their Name, Image and Likeness (NIL), but is against collectives that offer money to players before they even play a down of college football. Sanders believes that players should be compensated based on their performance and with incentives for hitting certain goals, rather than being offered money through a collective while still in high school. He wants players to be set up for success in the NFL and not have NIL take away from football.
