Am not going to do the Fanatics/Topps College thing.

Just not interested unless there is a pro team uniform on a card. (or airbrushed with one )

I could see collecting cards from the school I graduated from. But that's about it.

I find all of this NIL stuff fascinating in terms of the football card hobby. It has really opened up the collecting options, being able to buy college cards as players break out will be a lot of fun.

It didn't work out for Wild Card in 1991, maybe it's different 30 years later.

Wild Card made cards of player still in college? A draft product?

And Wild Card has got a product out right now with players still in college - Allumination Collegiate Edition NIL.

Yes I know the new Wild Card has NIL. I didn’t know they made an NIL product in 1991. I didn’t think that was possible before NIL was OK’d. I know draft products have been around for a while but I don’t recall seeing cards from players still playing college FB.

Is this the 1991 Wild Card College product? That is a draft product not NIL.

2021 Leaf Pro Set Power is a NIL product. It has college underclassman autos. The two players below are still sophomores. As far as I know, you couldn't buy autographed prospect cards of current college players before the recent NIL products.
