Total Deals in Arbitration as of 10/31/26: 0
1 These figures do not include Not Cleared deals that have been resubmitted or for which the time period for revision remained open as of October 31, 2026.
2 Many deals that purport to be with Non-Associated entities bear the hallmarks of Associated deals. In instances where a deal would comply with NCAA bylaws even if the entity were to be designated as Associated, the CSC often will clear the deal without engaging in any inquiry about Associated status and without changing the entity’s designation in NIL Go, for the sake of efficiency. In other words, some portion of the deals identified here in this “Non-Associated” column likely belong in the “Associated” column.
COLLEGE SPORTS COMMISSION REMARKS
From September 1, 2026, through October 31, 2026:
- The CSC actioned an average of 175 NIL deals per day.
- 48% of deals actioned between September 1, 2026, and October 31, 2026, were resolved within seven days following population of all required fields in NIL Go including attestation(s).
- In many of the remaining 52% of deals, the CSC sought additional information from the student-athlete, deal sponsor, or institution that the CSC needs to make a determination on the deal. The CSC is often able to make determinations on these deals within seven days of receiving such additional information.
- 12% more Associated deals were submitted to NIL Go in September-October 2026 than in any other two-month period since launch.
- 61% of deals submitted since September 1 and actioned on or before October 31, 2026, were resolved within seven days following population of all required fields in NIL Go including attestation(s).
- The complexity of submitted deals (e.g., obfuscation as to funding source of deal, institutional money used to fund third-party “sponsor” that is otherwise not profit-seeking) continues to increase.
Since the NIL Go platform launched on June 11, 2025, and through October 31, 2026:
- 56,570 NIL deals have been cleared with an aggregate value of $775.11M
- 2,877 NIL deals have been not cleared with an aggregate value of $177.14M
