Since the NIL Go clearinghouse launched in June 2025, more than $355 million worth of deals have been cleared, the College Sports Commission said in its latest NIL data report. During that same time, 1,812 deals worth $89.9 million were not cleared.

NIL Go saw an uptick in deal submissions between May 1 and June 30, 2026, according to the CSC. The system cleared 7,639 deals worth a total value of $112.89 million and denied 659 deals worth a combined $33.68 million.

All told, since Jan. 1, NIL Go has cleared 16,874 deals worth just over $228 million. In contrast, 1,288 deals have been denied with a total value of $74.91 million.

Since the system launched, the College Sports Commission said final decisions come on an average of more than 90 NIL deals per day, and 41% of submitted deals reach resolution within 24 hours. The CSC also cited a “significant increase in Associated deal volume” since January, which it said resulted in a decrease in that percentage.

Additionally, 63% of submitted deals were resolved within a week after the completion of all information fields. As for the remaining 37%, the College Sports Commission said it looked for additional details from the athlete, sponsor or school outside the system. While final decisions typically come within a week, the CSC said “NIL Go currently does not allow us to readily calculate this percentage.”

In Wednesday’s data release, the College Sports Commission also confirmed two deals are in arbitration and have been combined into a “single matter,” the data report said. While the commission didn’t disclose the schools or athletes involved, two arbitration decisions have come down in the last few months. An arbitrator ruled in the CSC’s favor in a case involving Nebraska athletes while another sided with Georgia athletes in a separate case.

More on the CSC, NIL Go

The data comes just over a year after NIL Go’s launch in June 2025. The clearinghouse came about after the House settlement received final approval and vets third-party NIL deals. Last month, the CSC announced the range-of-compensation figure is now at $15,000.

July 1 was also one-year anniversary of the revenue-sharing era in college athletics. The cap also grew to $21.3 million, which is the amount schools can directly share with athletes. Those dollars are not subject to NIL Go.

The College Sports Commission also got a win in the courtroom last month. A magistrate judge denied a challenge to the House settlement regarding rules about associated entities. As a result, deals with multi-media rights are still subject to NIL Go. The decision has been appealed to Judge Claudia Wilken, who approved the settlement agreement last year.

Upon the Protect College Sports Act’s introduction, Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark was among those to voice support for the bipartisan bill. He said it will help bring stability to college athletics, but acknowledged there’s still work to do.

Yormark confirmed he plans to be in Washington, D.C. next week as negotiations continue about the Protect College Sports Act. The bill is on track for the Senate floor after a markup and Commerce Committee vote last month, and Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) has the authority to call it for a full vote.

In the meantime, conversations have taken place with sponsors Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Maria Cantwell (D-Wash.), and Yormark said they will keep going next week. He stressed the need for progress instead of the “perfect” legislation as the Protect College Sports Act addresses key issues.

“When I look at the bill … there was a lot of negotiation that was being done, a lot of horse-trading that was being done,” Yormark said Tuesday at Big 12 Media Days. “I look at where we’ve landed right now as progress over perfection. Nothing is going to be perfect, but the question is, can we make progress? Are we better off with a bill than without one?

“When I think about some of the elements of the bill that I like, it starts with agent restrictions, which we need. Federal preemption, limited liability protection, the transfer portal, eligibility, cap circumvention, just to name a few. They’re not perfect as currently written, but they will help resolve some of the chaos that’s currently in the system and deliver a more stable model for collegiate athletics moving forward.”

Shortly after the Protect College Sports Act’s introduction, the Big 12 and ACC made their support clear for the bill. However, the Big Ten and SEC said they do not support the legislation as it’s currently written. They have also circulated potential revisions, Yahoo! Sports’ Ross Dellenger reported.

Brett Yormark said more talks will take place about possible changes. It’s part of the back-and-forth when it comes to the legislative process. As he looked at the heart of the bill, though, he sees the good it can do for college athletics.

“Next week, I’ll be on the Hill, and we’ll discuss areas that could be tweaked and refined,” Yormark said. “But I think at the core there’s a lot in there to like. It’s not perfect, don’t get me wrong. But there’s a lot to like. And I know, having spoken to both Senators, again, it was a major negotiation, and you got to have give and take in those situations.”
