Rumor is that EVERY scholarship athlete at Arkansas, regardless of sport, will be getting a $25K NIL deal on a year-to-year basis.

This is supposedly coming through the AAC (Arkansas Athlete Consortium), which I believe is the Hunt group.

We will see. Announcement could be coming at Media Days on Wednesday.

That would actually be pretty nice. You can tack that on to any big time NIL for a super star and helps real in those 3/4 stars that we normally fight over

Just imagine the NIL deal if Sam Walton was still alive..maybe they're are still some Hog fans that are executives with Walmart and Tyson. Thank goodness JB Hunt has stepped up.

Call me sexist or elitist but I don’t give a shite if we give womens soccer, swimming etc money. Give the big 3 more money.

Just wait until some government somewhere thinks Title IX applies to NIL

So around 15.3 million per year? Based on this information.

There are 612 athletes who take part in at least one sport at the school, 306 men and 306 women.

If this is indeed true, then I'd much rather put $10M into the football program and spread the rest among baseball and bball.
