Uh Oh. Clemson has seen the light.

Get ready boys.

Wait.....is this a trick?

 

[JohnnySolo]

Not sure why ipay didn't make dabo spend money on the portal already.

LSU spent 50 million and left the middle of the line wide-open.

$40 million is the minimum buy-in just to have a shot at being a contender.

So, are we there yet ?

Nobody knows what we spend...or what anyone else spends really. I settled on the $40 million b/c that's in the range of the NIL numbers you hear thrown about most often for the big programs, though all are unconfirmed.

I'd imagine we're in the 20s.

Everything I've seen says were are $30-35M. Throwing money doesn't automatically make you a contender.

I doubt we are that high. Nobody knows though.

I agree, nobody knows. Whatever it is, it isn't the pittance some think it is.

I would guess we're in the mid to upper 20s.

No, it doesn't. However not spending any money, or very little in the current environment nearly guarantees you won't be a contender.

Mid 20s is what I’ve seen.

Not throwing money at NIL guarantees you won’t be!!

 

[bayrooster]

Get ready boys.

That's like a rich uncle for every starter.

 

[Psycock]

Tampa Bay Rays have one of the lowest roster payrolls in MLB I believe - $$$ doesn`t always translate.

Bradford and Shurburtt quote these figures regularly on their morning show too from The Athletic piece that came out a month ago fwiw. Shurburtt has good sources close to the program and concurs with the low to mid $30M range as our NIL payroll.
