That's not going to work.

Texas football generates roughly $170M in revenue annually and @ $75M for players (add in $25M for staff) & that's almost a 60% payroll to earnings ratio.

The issue though are many programs are generating a positive return though if the athletes become employees the NIL collective may revert more funds into the program directly instead of to the players.
