Exactly. They’re growing a service, so to speak, from zero. Naturally, fan contributions might only pay the light bills right now. But that’s not the ultimate goal by any means

Boosters want more people with skin in the game when it comes to NIL. More fun for them

The fans can pay for more than the overhead. And should.

We don’t want to lose the facilities upgrades and such that the big donors provide.

For example Bruce put off a new practice facility for investment into NIL. Does Bruce deserve the things he wants and needs? Of course.

And Butch just signed the 4th ranked baseball class. And that is in a state without a lotto scholarship program.

(However I think we lose 3 to the draft)

You tired of mid… then here’s you chance. Jump aboard the train or you get left.

And they will in time. Gotta get more people’s foot in the door. Lowering the cost of entry was smart

Holidays are coming up. The baws are back in town and hopefully people beyond the message board crowd start talking about OTV

I feel like we’re gonna get some serious flips on signing day.

Freeze seems to like these things timed for most visibility/momentum.

I have no inside information

This will be one of the greatest signing classes in Auburn history. So glad we hired Freeze

Why does ON3 have Walker White as an 86% lean to Clemson? They have AU with a 3% chance to keep him. 24/7 has him as a 75% Clemson lean.

I suspect these predictions are outdated. If so, they need to remove that shite from their sites.

Total opposite of potato guy. I love how he talked about how hardcore he was and how hard he would work. He was the laziest coach on the recruiting trail in our history.

Those were the predictions heading into his decision. Once they commit you can’t change them to the school they’re committed to. Those predictions are tied to the people that make them. Aka if they’re wrong they keep them up so you know they were wrong.

I think a $9.99 tier would be more palatable to a majority of the gameday fanbase.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m excited. But I have too much Auburn in me not to have a feeling deep down in the gut gearing me up for a huge let down.

This ain't potato man or LATE Gus. Freeze will close and give us a 8-10 class at worst. I could even see us at 6-7 if we hit a few home runs.

I don’t know, I have a sneaky suspicion we’re about to get a taste of what it’s like to recruit well and actually develop talent.

One of the flips in the coming weeks/months is earthquake worthy.
