Welcome to the Greetings and Felicitations, a podcast where I explore topics which might not seem to be directly related to compliance but clearly influence our profession. Join us on Greetings and Felicitations as we explore the pressing topics of today with genuine and thoughtful conversations. Today I visit with Trent Clark about NILs.

Trent Clark, a former athlete turned coach and entrepreneur, has a rich background in education and sports, with a career spanning prestigious teams like the Detroit Tigers, Cleveland Indians, and Anaheim Angels. Clark's perspective on entrepreneurship and income diversification in college athletics is that it offers a valuable opportunity for young athletes to develop crucial skills and create additional income streams. He emphasizes the importance of treating name, image, and likeness (NIL) as a business and educating athletes on how to navigate this new landscape effectively. Clark believes that participating in NIL activities can provide athletes with valuable skills such as time management, coaching, adaptability, and resilience, which can make them highly desirable candidates in the corporate world. He also highlights the potential for athletes to become influencers and generate significant returns for themselves and corporate partners through marketing opportunities. Join Tom Fox and Trent Clark on this episode of Greetings and Felicitations to delve deeper into this fascinating topic.
