$500,000 is for the poor folks. Sheduer Sanders has or had an NIL value of $4.7 million.
500,000 subscribers at $25/mo is $150,000,000/yr.

Probably planning on dispersing it equally so the tennis players make the same as the football players.
Over the last 10 years Arkansas leads the conference in sec championships in the sports no one cares about. They plan on keeping it that way I'm sure.

I saw it as $500,000 but not 500,000 subscribers my bad.
How did you come up with $150 million?
I came up with $12,500,000.

If it's $25/month then you forgot to multiply it by 12 months/year.

(25*12)*500000 = 150000000
ETA: However, expecting 500,000 subscribers is not anywhere close to possible in reality. 50,000 at $25/month would be the absolute best they should hope for.

12 * 25 is 300.
300 * 500,000 is 150,000,000.
300 * 500,000 is 150,000,000.

I think even 50k is unreasonable. Regular people will/should max out their foundation giving first.
I doubt there are even 50k people who would sign up for this in addition to foundation giving.
With NIL, it’s basically the ultra rich and corporations or bust.

OK got it.
500,000 subscribers isn't an unrealistic number.

How big do you think our fan base is? That’s one out of six living Arkansans.
I know the alumni network would increase that, but a lot of them don’t give a rip about college sports.

It's laughable that they're trying to sell this and actually thinking 500k will donate.
They're not figuring the population south of Little Rock that are struggling to pay bills much less throw $25/ month at the nil monies.

Dumb
Arkansas football twitter doesn’t even have 431k followers.
Arkansas basketball twitter doesn’t even have 300k followers.
I’d wager 150-200k of those are the same people. 50k are likely bots.
500k is a very unrealistic number.

Then what would be a realistic number?

I really don’t give a rip.
Your post was just dumb.
I don’t care if 29 people sign up. Football is a lost cause and Muss handles everything with the basketball program.

Wrights BBQ probably added fans from Dallas and Memphis and thought 500,000 subscribers shouldn't be an issue.
But we don't know the size of the fan base as we don't have any numbers on it.
I can speculate the size is relatively small compared to other programs from bigger states.

I don't give it a shite if it is dumb or not, Wrights BBQ came up with that number.
We have zero clue on the size of the Arkansas fan base.
But we can get a general idea by looking at bigger states and say that the fan base isn't as big as the programs located in those states.
Here is an article that had a study of the largest fan bases in the nation.

I would guess we have a top 30 fan base nationally. Top 40 for sure

From what I can remember, when Frank was still AD a fan could send a small contribution and receive a calendar and such for their donation. Jeff Long put an end to that.
A 2 dollar gift for a 10 dollar donation brought in money. Even with a 5 dollar donation.
Long sucks. He alienated a lot of fans and the program hasn’t recovered. Screw him.

Well he was fired and the BOT hired a coach that won 4 games in two years.
As much as I depised Long you might want to check out the record since he was shite canned.

Fired Petrino, appointed John L, hired Burt. He’s a dandy. But that wasn’t my biggest gripe about him.
