Well, this is a way we haven't seen college football covered ... yet. But knew it was coming.
The State newspaper is reporting that star freshman defensive end Dylan Stewart is negotiating a new NIL deal for next season with South Carolina that will pay him a team-high figure in excess of $1 million for next season.
It would be a one-year deal, interestingly.
Stewart is making less than $500,000 this season, per the report.
No deal has been finalized, but the report intimated Stewart is expected to reach terms with the Gamecocks to stay.
So, fascinating he's likely to stick for another year rather than bolt for, say, Texas or Ohio State.
Also fascinating how this is being reported, and whether that info comes from school or agent and is being played out through the media.
