The Sandersons are generous to the academic side but aren’t interested in getting involved in athletics past premium seating.
And that's the case for a lot of our wealthy donors. We just received a $100 million gift. All academic and student life.
The group that would give money to NIL or for a big name coach are small town car dealership owners, heavy equipment dealers, etc. Nice living, especially for Mississippi, but wouldn't sniff the board room at other SEC schools. We have a Sun Belt booster network, essentially.

What about the Seal family? I know they donate a lot to academics
It does seem a lot of our big money people do little to help athletics. Which is a shame

Yeah that's why a team like Miss State will never really compete in the SEC. They probably do belong in the sun belt but they've got a sweet gravy train in the SEC with profit sharing. It's a trade off. They trade a chance to win championships for SEC money.
