Full Ride: Understanding the NIL System (Modules 1–5)

Most athletes are told the rules. Very few are shown the system.

Full Ride exists to close that gap. It was created for athletes and families who sense that important decisions are being made around them, often without clear explanations, shared language, or honest context.

This is not a branding course. It does not teach social media tricks, follower growth, or shortcuts. It focuses on understanding how modern college athletics actually operates in the era of Name, Image, and Likeness—how money moves, how leverage forms, why certain conversations never happen openly, and why outcomes often feel personal even when they are structural.

Across these five modules, the course slows the game down. It replaces speculation with clarity and emotion with context. It explains why silence around NIL creates confusion, comparison, and tension, and how athletes can unknowingly give up leverage long before they ever sign anything. It also gives parents a framework for understanding what is happening without panic or pressure, and language to support their athlete without interfering or guessing.

This course treats athletes as decision-makers, not dependents. It assumes intelligence. It respects awareness. It acknowledges that most people entering this system are doing their best with incomplete information.

You will not be told what deal to take or what path to choose. Instead, you will learn how to recognize the structure underneath the opportunities being presented to you, why certain options appear when they do, and which questions matter before committing to any direction.

Modules 1 through 5 are the foundation. They are designed to be understood before meetings, before comparisons, and before the noise gets loud. They create the clarity that allows athletes and families to move forward without rushing, guessing, or relying on secondhand advice.

A full ride is not just tuition. It is understanding the system before the system understands you.
