Under the table bread ain’t the same as these NIL deals.

And im looking at the school endowments and alums. The pockets in the SEC aren’t as deep.
Its the same thing :dwillhuh:

Look at Colorado’s current NIL deals. You think they can cook up like that but the SEC schools can’t?

Not sure what Nebraska gave Raiola to flip him but im sure its crazy.

Point being, Everyone has money on the D1 level. College Football is big business and has been for centuries.

The B1G, Texas and Cali schools got more money than the SEC schools and can raise more too.

The richest Texas donors haven't contributed to NIL up to this point. Simple reason why is :mjpls:. This is the story across many schools, it is not safe to assume these rich donors love or even care about football like that. Most of them would rather pay to have their name on a building on campus. Texas NIL is being carried be mid level rich guys, the fans, and corporate NIL. Schools like Texas, Oregon, Ohio St and a few others can likely afford their current ~20 million rosters year in and out but the majority of schools cannot sustain that. Also remember NIL isn't exclusive to football. There will always be one off situations where a donor gets motivated because the team is trash or has a glaring deficiency, like with this Michigan QB situation

Their is also the looming House decision that's going to put plenty of schools in a pickle because they don't have bread like that.

Honestly I don't do this but if he'd rather accelerate his dumb choices by reclassifying and going to eternal loser aTm, then he is welcome to do so. Going to a never winning shyt ass program with the goal of winning shyt is definitely a fools errand.

Good luck with that kiddo. We only recognize one Brady on this side anyway

a lot of speculation he knows kirk campbell is gone which is good. @Trust Me
