On Monday, Blake Corum will suit up for the Wolverines for the final time as the Maize and Blue take on Washington in the National Championship Game. Ahead of the matchup — Michigan’s first in program history — a new Michigan football NIL deal was announced for star running back Blake Corum.
Michigan football NIL deal for Blake Corum before National Championship Game
Blake Corum, one of the most recognized and respected names in college football, has done well for himself when it comes to NIL. While Corum’s time in the NCAA with Michigan football is nearing its end, he managed to ink yet another new deal ahead of Monday’s National Championship Game against the Washington Huskies.
Per Corum’s social media, his latest deal is with TheRealest.Com, launching a custom line of limited edition and autographed trading cards. See the official announcement below.
Of course, this new NIL deal comes just days after Blake Corum rushed in the game-winning touchdown in overtime against Alabama in the Rose Bowl — a victory that punched the Wolverines’ ticket to the National Championship in Houston.
With the title game just over 24 hours out, Blake Corum and Michigan football have legacies on the line with a shot at snapping a nearly three-decade-long title drought — one final mark of honor for Corum & Co. before he tries his hand in the NFL.
