Here's one of the things I don't understand about how the situation could play out. Let's say Notre Dame signs a high profile QB, gives him number 3, and he doesn't pan out. #3 is the highest selling ND jersey (i would guess, but pretty sure) given Montana, Mirer, Powlus (despite the "bust" label, set a ton of records there), and Michael Floyd plus other older stars (pre-Montana) I can't seem to recall off hand. If college players get paid for jersey sales, who gets paid when ND sells #3 under this scenario? Unlikely people are buying the jersey of the hypothetical bust QB, right?

Edit: Typically ND doesn't put last names on the back of their football jerseys. I think they currently only do it for bowl games.
