The documentary is about how the NCAA's rule changes to Name, Image and Likeness (NIL) forever changed college athletics and allowed athletes to make millions of dollars in sponsorship deals.

Dunne led the group with a $3.9 million NIL valuation, according to On3. Daniels's valuation was $1.6 million and Reese's $1.8 million.
