Does anyone know how widespread NIL is at the D3 level ? How about in the WIAC ?

About 3 years ago, Point was able to steer a few recruits away from another WIAC team using some form of compensation, I assume it was legit under NIL rules. Seems more logical if potential players have upward mobility to D2 or D1, then its more prevalent to convince them to pass on the scholarship money. No idea of other WIAC school efforts.

It is hot here in FL and Heather is looking and feeling hot in her bikini poolside.

Have a great summer.

I *think* with the new exhibition rules the announced exhibition of NMU at UWSP October 24 will be an actual game open to the public?

Can anyone (Ryan, Pat) confirm?

Exhibitions are all up to the schools, I believe. If you're doing a scrimmage (which, I think, can be three halves and doesn't have to follow all the official game rules) that has to be closed door. I'm ignorant if the WIAC has their own specific rules governing these games. As far as I know, there's no NCAA rule that would make exhibitions private.

Every scrimmage I've seen does indeed follow this protocol. The first two halves are basically regulation, often with the projected starters playing most of the first half, and with the second five or any regular rotation players playing most of the second. The third "half," often referred to as the JV half, is mainly for those players who are likely going to be outside the regular rotation. Many of these guys will not dress for varsity games those that do (players 11-15) will likely see only very minimal action during the season. I've see coaches agree on both 20 and 10 minute "3rd halves," sometimes with a running clock for either time period.
I'm sure others have observes the same.
