1890 is now affiliated with the school. From the Nebraska Athletics page:I think in some cases people may think the revenue sharing is all for the football team since many discussions involve them. But the revenue sharing is for all athletes including women. Each sport where the university shares revenues will get a percentage of the 22% or 20.5 million. Also the revenue sharing can be considered NIL money because that's what started all of this, but we're still just talking money from the university. Any player that makes a separate NIL deal with 1890 or some business is not part of any revenue sharing deal, and that money has to be split with anyone else.
At least that's my understanding of how it all works.
“1890 Nebraska is the official Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) Collective of Nebraska Athletics. Beginning in 2024, the Huskers Athletic Fund will acknowledge donor contributions to 1890 Nebraska by awarding Huskers Athletic Fund priority points and establishing combined memberships “
Many schools have closed the collectives and have the university handle it. Hard to say a court won’t find Title IX to apply.
