Newsstand: Michigan OL Trevor Keegan expects to make tremendous amount in NIL money this year
Tweets Of The Day
Sports Illustrated featured senior running back Blake Corum and Michigan in its ‘Money Issue’ discussing NIL and college athletics. The story also revealed that Michigan graduate left guard Trevor Keegan will make a substantial amount in NIL this year.
“Keegan was the 184th-ranked recruit in the country. He plays left guard. He is nobody’s marketing dream and he knows it: ‘I’m not much of a poster on social media, and there’s been a lot of companies that reached out and asked me to post a lot. It’d be like making Reels and stuff, being creative, making TikToks. And that’s just not who I am. I’m not good at that kind of stuff. I think it’s kind of cringey, too.’ Yet Keegan expects to make ‘anywhere from $225 [thousand] to half a million’ in NIL money this year. The system that enriches Blake Corum is taking care of Trevor Keegan, too.”
Corum explained some of Michigan’s approach with NIL.
“You have to work for it,” Corum says of NIL money at Michigan. “Nothing’s given. Nothing’s handed out. And I think that’s the way it should be.”

Quote Of The Day
“Obviously, he’s playing really, really well right now. His ability to just continue to get the snaps and the fine details of playing that position and coming off the ball a little more consistently and attacking [is key]. But he’s so big, and he’s so strong, and his arms are so long that he’s able to get off blocks relatively quickly, which leads to the high level of production he has.”
