Cash grab; they'll settle and move on. Honestly, Pryor shouldn't get anything - everyone agrees (I think) players should have been compensated, but they weren't, and that was the way it was. How far back do we go with this? You played in the 80's and didn't get money so you want to sue too?

Well.... and many people forget (or never knew)... FORMER players were at the crux of the House Case. And former players (going back, IIRC, 10 years or so) are due payments (when the final Is are dotted and Ts crossed on that settlement).
It is not just "revenue sharing" for current and future athletes.

So, why would a player from 15, 20, 30 years ago be expected to feel it is right for them to be excluded from the ability to petition for funds? What if their time as an athlete fell a day/week/month/year short of the cut off date for House? Should it surprise anyone that they might also petition?

Opens the door for the great, great, … grandson of Red Grange to sue the University of Illinois for lost NIL. revenue.

Perhaps he should have put that out of state tuition of 30k a year he received to better use. He wouldn’t be worrying so much about it now.

Pic posted in the thread seems to me that Pryor got some sort of bag in addition to his 'Tats' not sure what his beef from the past could be

Now if the argument is that OSU continues to use his image in advertisements or videos to promote the OSU of today maybe OSU just edits him out of the picture/video but does any athlete of the past get this at anytime? statute of limitations anyone?

Ki-Jana running for a TD in the Rosebowl is that 'fair use' by PSU or the NCAA or the Rosebowl or any network broadcast using it=== or is that something Ki-Jana has the rights to? How does one quantify the value and or reach a vid pic has outside of a direct link posted below?

whoa nellie....goodbye... and then he was gone

Terrelle's post-college athletic career has been a bust so I'm not sure how he supports himself. Maybe he's invested wisely, I don't know. But if he needs cash, what better place to get it than from the place which likely paid him more money than he made in the NFL??

Believe the cutoff is 2017.

I think he should give back the compensation he received while cough, attending school, cough and then reach a settlement. The difference will be about $5.00.
