Analyzing Sport Marketing in NCAA Football
SMGT 3020 - Sport Marketing
University of Cincinnati
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.

believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I

an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And

not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.

convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to

sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent

no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.

Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.

college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.

their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into

that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.

body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.

schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
football, and just how teams are trying to build their programs up. It puts smaller, lower division
one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I

one schools at a competitive disadvantage in comparison to schools such as Alabama or
Michigan who have a much higher threshold for what their boosters are willing to give out. I
believe NIL deals are better for student athletes, as I believe that college athletes should get
paid. However, with how teams are throwing around money for athletes to come to their
schools, I do believe that something needs to be put into place to limit the amount of money a
school can throw up.
Consumer For my project, I have selected college sports, with the focus being on college
(NCAA) football. With that being said, my consumer for college football will be anyone who
is a fan of football as a sport and any universities with a football program that has a student-
body that supports the team. It is a fact that college football is the most popular college sport
in America, and even generates more views than professional sports. Football in America is the
biggest sport there is, and there are die-hard fans to neutral viewers of the sport every weekend.
Not to mention, universities that play in what are called the Power Five Conferences – those
that play inthe Big Ten, Big XII, SEC, ACC, Pac 12 – have an outlandish following from their
student-bodythat sells out stadiums frequently. The marketing and business that goes into
branding these teams is very high quality, and very well done. Universities do a good job of
branding themselves by using different jerseys based off of different historical things related to
their campus, and also generate regular hype for their team when they are successful. Not to
mention, in college football, the rivalries between teams stem back decades, making the
exposure of these universities and their teams consistent on media platforms.
Competitors With college football, there really is no other competitor. There are plenty of other
college sports that get airtime, such as basketball, baseball, and soccer, but none of those sports
are as prominent in households as football. The only other thing you could call a competitor is
the NFL, but college football games are never played on Sundays like NFL games are, and
often do not conflict with other NFL-scheduled games like on Thursday or Monday nights.
Company.What makes college football unique is the environment and the atmosphere that
surrounds the game of football at this level. There are people who will strictly watch college
football, but not tune into the NFL because of their love for the specific school. People will
continue to watch kids come and go for their chosen university and will continue to watch them
no matter what. College football, as a whole, is widely entertaining and appeals to a lot of
peopleof different demographics. The older demographics watch because they like the sport or
like to follow their alumnus, and the younger demographic watches because they too like the
sport, but also aspire to be a college athlete themselves. Football can be considered a violent
sport, which makes it tough to appeal to new consumers who may be familiar with the actions
of the sport. However, as stated, just the atmosphere of a college football game alone outside
of the sport itself could entice newer fans and demographics to consider following and
watching a team. In this day and age, if someone is disinterested in football, it will be hard to
convince them to follow.
Climate.One thing that is changing in college football is the Name, Image, Likeness (NIL)
deals, and how that can affect the hemisphere of college football. NIL deals, in simple terms,
mean thatcollege athletes can get paid for their name, image, and likeness, something that was
not allowed up until recently. The inclusion of these deals has now made recruiting and the
transfer portal a very interesting dynamic. Legally, universities are not allowed to use NIL deals
to recruit, but I would be shocked if the ideas were not talked about behind closed doors. And
as for the portal, itreally is just whichever schools’ athletic boosters can offer more money for
an athlete to come attend their university. It has completely changed the landscape of college
