Florida head football coach Dan Mullen questioned if the offer by Golden Cane and MMA Gym American Top Team owner Dan Lambert to every Miami football player for a $6,000 per year endorsement was legal. Speaking to reporters at SEC Media Days on Monday Mullen was asked about the offer and responded “Is that legal?”
With their location in South Florida and as a gateway to Latin America, the Miami football program is in as good of a position as any for their players to profit off of their own name, image and likeness.
