NIL giveth... and NIL taketh away. Just surrender to the fact that it's all about $$$. Right out in the open. $100 handshakes? Fake classes? Things of the past. Today, the more $$$ you have, the better you are prepared to benefit from NIL. The less you have, you're vulnerable and should expect player attrition. Coaches only complain when they lose players to NIL, not so much when they gain players.
