Thanks. But the NIL cap applies across all athletics across the university. I have read that Auburn football plans to spend 25 to 30M. Is there anywhere that is documented or is that numbers that have been made up based on speculation and rumor.

That includes NIL money from the collective. Collective money will also go to other sports. Football gets the lion's share, naturally.
I have read that also. I don't think any university will come out and declare what the actual number is for any sport.

Not trying to be asshoe, but how would you split that million up to retain players?
Pick one guy and give them the whole thing thing? Target 4 guys with $250k each? 10 with $100k?
At what point does that get diluted enough so that it isn't persuasive?

Bruce said he offered the kid that went to Michigan a little over $1M. That wasn't enough.

When did you talk to him?

Bruce said that during the Auburn Michigan game. Bruce said 1 million by Auburn didn't even get him to the negotiating table.
Auburn also couldnt afford a backup 4 for the final 4 run. Have to think a good backup 4 could've been the difference in beating Florida. Chaney Johnson played like a God and he needed to because he is all we had.

Crawford and Blockton are the only 2 I care about losing so far. That could change to Perry if Cam leaves.

He said it on air when he was calling the Auburn/Michigan game in Vegas.

Another day another defense starter in the portal. What is going on??

It wouldn't surprise me if next year the 2 deep at LB was Atkins/Melendez, and Deas/Riddick. Not surprising Woodyard is going to see what options are out there.

Durkin is not the head coach. Recruiting is ultimately Golesh's responsibility. Time will tell if he can recruit the talent we need.

That was the biggest hire since he will keep this roster intact. Can't wait to see our Returning D
How many of the D leaving are Durkin's guys? How much have we overpaid for the past 3 years. Seems like we are back to alignment with this staff...
