What is Auburn doing proactively with the NIL issue - are we hiring a, (need a euphemism here) Marketing Coordinator to, uh, field incoming inquiries from businesses interested in hiring AU athletes as spokespersons? Someone to network but, no, never to make sales calls on businesses, just to field inquiries, and, um, you know, facilitate the matching of businesses interested in paying athletes for their N,I, or L, with athletes interested in getting paid? Someone who knows the laws and the NCAA rules and makes sure we are maximizing our opportunities?
Auburn is a "small market" team, we have a big presence in Bham, Atlanta, Nashville, Huntsville, Mobile/Panhandle, Columbus, Montgomery, but are arguably not the main draw even in the closer local markets. We need someone making sure that, say, Aflac or CFA keeps AU athletes top of mind if they ever put athletes in ads, and someone making sure Voodoo Wings has the right incoming recruit getting a local endorsement deal.
So we need a Sales Rep/ I mean an Endorsement Compliance Facilitator to, uh, look out for the kids, yeah, that's the ticket, their best interests and everything.
I am certain the competition is already on this.
