I hear the numbers are staggering in Auburn’s favor. 4 billionaires might play a part in that though.

None of this is really verifiable. We can look at recruiting rankings and roster talent. Alabama hasn’t missed a beat in that since NIL became legal in the summer of 2021. Alabama has signed a #2 and #1 class since then. On pace for a top three class for 2024.

I's the Non-NIL $$$ where Bama and UGA continue to dominate everyone.

If anyone thinks Bama doesn't have a significant NIL program going, they're kidding themselves. Bama is playing the NIL game just like everyone else is. It would be dumb not to.

NIL and big bags of cash on the doorstep are not the same thing. One is legal, and one is not.

Do collectives post their balances? If not, you’d have to know folks at each collective or have connections at the bank(s) they use in order to see totals.

History will show that the flip of Rueben Foster to Auburn will go down as the single-most important event in changing the perception of the little/big brother roles in college football in the state of Alabama. Mainly because of what this manchild beast will do inside Jordan-Hare Stadium and the publicity that has surrounded the flip (press conference, tattoo, etc.). Not to mention the laundry list of fellow defensive recruits that are salivating at a chance to play with this wrecking ball on the field. This guy's magnetism and mentality are no different that Cam's. Both are once in a generation players and we'll have had them in Orange in Blue in a span of four years. I've never seen a time in which truly informed Alabama fans, not the toothleess Wal-Mart Muldykes, have been in such anxiety and agony over the direction of the Auburn Football program. I love every second of it, and they see what's happening and can't do anything about it. When you treat your players as family members and they play for you out of respect and admiration, things like 28-27 happen. When you have players that fear their coach, see rampant gray-shirting, bogus medical departures and wonder if they will have their scholarship the following year, things like a 24-0 complete meltdown implosion against your hated rival happen. It all starts at the top and CGC will go down as a legendary coach in college football history, not just Auburn history, Book It. I tell all of the Bammers without hesitation that CGC will win more national championships at Auburn than Satan will at UTea. If you hook me up to a polygraph while saying it, I would pass because that's how much I believe it to be true. The perception of Auburn Football in-state and on a national level is changing. September 1st is about to open the country's eyes as to what tenacious Auburn football is all about, and I can't wait to watch the look on little dabo's face. These are great times to be an Auburn Tiger. A dynasty is in the making, and if you don't see it, you don't have a clue. War Damn Chizik and War Damn Eagle.

I know Bruce & Butch are working like hell fundraising for NIL for basketball/baseball. I bet they're happy to see the $$ pouring in for their players.
