Hockey or not, this mechanism legitimizes side payments, which make it easy to get around the IL's prohibition of athletic scholarships.

Following NCAA rules and regulations, the collective remains an independent third party that collaborates with DU student-athletes but is not affiliated with the university. Crimson & Gold Collective FAQ

there is no way you actually believe that denver's gymnasts actually get more money than zeev buium. whether the collective is the method or not, that isn't happening.

Depends. They have a Livvy Dunne lookalike?

QuoteWe are actively pursuing involvement from ALL athletic programs at the University of Denver.

if this was supposed to be some "gotcha" about Denver hockey not participating in NIL and rev share - then it's just comical. Again, instead of just replying with "Yeah, you're right" - we have to jump through hoops to find any nugget to justify a wrong opinion.

I just thought it was an interesting "nugget." Wasn't directed at you, and also don't know what "wrong opinion" you're referring to. It's just another piece of evidence NIL plays little to no role at places like Denver. Maybe that will change, or maybe it's not like that at other schools. Not interested in arguing about this anymore at all tbh, I literally just thought it was interesting.
