Yeah I thought we were supposed to be on the 'cutting edge' of NIL, what gives? Do we have to sell more Runzas or Amigo's crisp meat burritos to get there?
We don’t have the collective funds that other elite programs have, and that won’t change. Not enough Billionaire alumni.
We do have as much money as Colorado, tho. They’ve just (obviously) embraced the need to find elite Talent, and it’s made them a competitive team. Immediately.
Look at just the top 20-30 ranked Paid players in football, and the teams with even TWO of them pledged…. UGA, Bama, Texas, Michigan, USC, tOSU, now even Colorado, Tennessee and f’ing KENTUCKY… all dominant teams, or teams who have been Demonstrably on the rise. This shouldn’t be difficult for anyone to decipher, or at least acknowledge. We’re in the same income bracket or at least closer to the likes of UK or CU.
Athletic Dept needs to rearrange their priorities. Or they’ll deserve to lose donors. Because we’ll keep losing.
