The College Sports Commission's clearinghouse has rejected nearly $90 million in Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) deals since its launch a year ago, according to a recent report. The NIL Go platform, managed by Deloitte, has simultaneously approved $355 million in NIL agreements since June 11, 2025.

During a 61-day period from May 1 to June 30 this year, the CSC rejected $34 million in NIL deals while clearing $113 million. The average rejected deal during that span was valued at a higher $51,593 compared to the average approved deal of $14,792. Common reasons for rejection include deals lacking a valid business purpose, compensation not aligning with market rates, or insufficient activation of the student-athlete's NIL rights.

This scrutiny follows months of contention, with the CSC previously expressing "serious concerns" about deals that lacked valid business purposes, tied up player rights, or failed to meet fair market value. The CSC has finalized rulings on roughly 90 NIL deals daily over the past year, with only two currently in arbitration. This process highlights the ongoing efforts to regulate NIL compensation and ensure compliance with NCAA bylaws.
