Staley, appearing on \u201cIMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson,\u201d said that the NDAs are \u201cone way she keeps the money players receive from affecting South Carolina\u2019s locker room\u201d and \u201cno revenue discussions have yet to affect the locker room.\u201d Sauls notes Staley is \u201csupportive of this new era of college athletics that finds the players benefiting more than ever from a monetary standpoint,\u201d but she \u201cfeels additional control is needed.\u201d Staley is \u201cbelieved to be one of the few, perhaps the only, head coach at South Carolina who prefers to directly handle\u201d the program\u2019s NIL discussions. South Carolina has \u201cnot made its own distribution breakdown public, but Staley has long argued for a larger piece of the rev-share pie.\u201d Staley said, \u201cWe\u2019ve got a certain amount of money that we have to work with, and I don\u2019t over-promise.\u201d She added, \u201cI do some innovative things as well to help our players out in this space. We play games for money, and that money goes directly to our players, things like that.\u201d Sauls notes South Carolina will be playing in the Players Era Women\u2019s Championship, which will provide players with at least $1M of \u201cNIL opportunities in each year that it participates\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thestate.com\/sports\/college\/university-of-south-carolina\/usc-womens-basketball\/article311691369.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" title=\"https:\/\/www.thestate.com\/sports\/college\/university-of-south-carolina\/usc-womens-basketball\/article311691369.html\">Columbia STATE, 8\/13<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Univ. of South Carolina women\u2019s basketball coach Dawn Staley said that she \u201chas players sign non-disclosure agreements\u201d in&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":229881,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3723],"tags":[7,217,17622,231,772,1544],"class_list":{"0":"post-229880","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-basketball","8":"tag-basketball","9":"tag-college-basketball","10":"tag-name-image-and-likeness","11":"tag-ncaa","12":"tag-ncaa-basketball","13":"tag-ncaab"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229880","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=229880"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229880\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/229881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=229880"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=229880"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nba\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=229880"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
