"We have followed a plan that was deliberate and intentional to make an effort to be in this first 12-team Playoff,” said Walker Jones, the executive director of The Grove Collective. “That started two years ago.”

It culminated this fall, Jones said, having invested more than $10 million into a roster loaded with talent and highly recruited transfers. Jones said that number likely ranks among the top half of SEC programs.

No idea how much our NIL for football is but I assume it's less based on stoops' comments

Honestly, SEC fans should give the Rebels grief in the offseason for this.

But today, true SEC fans should be United that Ole Miss and the SEC got screwed - BY BAMA and it’s acolytes who pushed for the Gumps to get it over Ole Miss.

Reminder: We spend that much every year and have been the 3rd best program in the SEC since Kiffin arrived.

We will have another top 10 class once the portal opens up.

Cope and seethe.

Lol yeah this was suppised to be their year. Their boosters are rich but not wealthy. Smart money is to wait to see how this plays out then invest. The rich blow their money the wealthy invest. OM wont be able to keep it up much like most the oxford and short wearing dorks in the grove

I know it’s difficult for a Kentucky fan to understand how program building works in football but we will continue to recruit at a high level every single year.

We will continue to spend $10M every year because we have one of the best collectives in the country. (We actually honor our commitments unlike Kentucky)

And we will continue to compete at a high level every year.

Stick to basketball and cousin fricking in Eastern Kentucky ya hillbilly.
