Hello again! Thanks for opening up this week’s NILnomics. I’m late this week because I had a big article drop on Extra Points, Matt Brown’s excellent college sports business newsletter. David Cavucci at FOIAball (another excellent newsletter focused on public records requests/college sports) sent me data on how many fans actually get scanned into the college football stadiums and I did a thorough analysis.
Today I’m giving you everything that was on the cutting room floor from that article. You should start with what’s over there (if you haven’t read it already) and then come back here for more! If you’re not subscribed to Matt’s newsletter, you should. It’s my first read every morning.
We Need You - for Fantasy College Football!
I am seeking volunteers to participate in a highly publicized fantasy college football league. Following my initial request for participants last week, I received several responses. However, recognizing that not all individuals may read the newsletter weekly, I am extending one final opportunity for interested parties to register before closing the enrollment process.
Participants should be aware that their names will be publicly displayed in the newsletter. In exchange, you will have the opportunity to introduce yourself to the entire NILnomics community. Additionally, I will provide a brief weekly update on the league to maintain engagement. If you are interested, please respond to this email.
