Pressure vs. perspective. High school athletes and families can feel enormous pressure around recruiting and NIL. Slow the moment down. Get perspective. Then make the decision. #HighSchoolNIL #NILEducation

I still remember getting the letter telling me I had earned a football scholarship. Moments like that put NIL into perspective. The opportunity to play and get an education comes first. NIL is not recruiting. #NIL #StudentAthlete

North Dakota HS NIL rules: ✅ NIL benefits consistent with NDHSAA regulations. ❌ No payment for playing on a team. ❌ No payments to influence school enrollment or residency for eligibility. Calling it NIL doesn't make it permissible. JDFOOTBALLTRAINING.COM/NIL #HighSchoolNIL

Excited to join the Nationsbest NIL College faculty as Director of High School NIL Education! Grateful to Robert Smith and the team. Helping athletes, families & schools navigate NIL through education BEFORE decisions are made. Stop. Think. Decide #HighSchoolNIL #NILEducation

CAN/CAN'T ✅ Independent commercial endorsements ❌ School uniforms or logos in endorsements ❌ Compensation tied to athletic fame connected to the school or RIIL The opportunity may be yours. The school's identity isn't. JDFOOTBALLTRAINING.COM/NIL #HighSchoolNIL

South Carolina NIL: Paying an athlete to transfer isn't the only concern. SCHSL also prohibits compensation offered as an incentive to REMAIN enrolled at a particular school. Retention incentives matter, too. JDFootballTraining.com/nil #HighSchoolNIL

South Dakota NIL: A sponsor wants to film an athlete's paid endorsement in the school gym. SDHSAA prohibits using member-school facilities for compensated NIL activities. Location matters just as much as the contract. JDFootballTraining.com/nil #SouthDakotaNIL

Tennessee NIL: Transferring schools doesn't make your old jersey available for paid endorsements. TSSAA restrictions cover branding from schools athletes currently or previously attended. Even old photos matter. JDFootballTraining.com/nil #TennesseeNIL

Texas NIL: Can a parent sign for a 16-year-old athlete? Not as a workaround. UIL guidance prohibits NIL agreements involving prospective athletes 16 or younger, including agreements through relatives. Turning 17 doesn't remove UIL restrictions. JDFootballTraining.com/nil #TXNIL
