What Does the Reported Zach Edey NIL Number Mean for Purdue Athletics?
I swear this picture will make sense once you listen.Ever since the Bob Kravitz story in The Athletic came out discussing Zach Edey’s future I’ve been obsessed with the dollar amount. Just south of a million dollars for Edey from NIL this year. That’s a lot of money. Like, a lot. It’s more than I thought any Purdue athlete would have made so far not because they aren’t worth it, they literally produce a product that makes billions of dollars, but because I just don’t know enough about the market. Plus, we all remember the kerfuffle over Nijel Pack receiving $800K and a car to go to Miami and how Purdue was unable to match/do that.
