Allocate 500k for your coaching staff and youd have about 58k per player for a 60 man roster. Obviously doesn’t include facility, front office etc. TV and concessions would have to take care of that.

Well if 58k is the amount and I'm a blue chip player with offers from everywhere, I'm choosing college.

(now this is ME, IBG as an 18 year old as a blue chip athlete, nothing has changed in my life but my football talent)
