As soon as it was announced that division one NCAA college athletes could now earn money, Hercy Miller announced that he had signed a multi-milllion dollar deal.
“It was a 2 million dollar deal. It’s incredible. This is gonna change the way college athletes want to stay in school,” Master P said to TMZ.
“I signed a deal with an American technology company. Like my dad said, it’s a blessing,” Hercy said.
“I learned from my dad, I’m gonna start off by giving back to the community and everyone around me. I have a camp July 21,” Hercy Miller continued. “I’m giving back to the kids. Giving school supplies.”
Before the rules change, colleges made huge profits from college athletes but the athletes themselves were not allowed to benefit and many would go broke. Now they will be able to afford more than just ramen noodles while playing for college teams.
