Good luck matching Texas
Did you really type that? Do you have any idea what is going on in this state? The old money in Austin is embarrassed by the dildo waving. Beto, liberal swing their school has taken. They are finding better places to spend their money.
Meanwhile, the Texas money at the largest university in the state are NIL friendly and are spending it.

A&M will have no problem matching Texas. In most years donations to the school exceed all others in the NCAA at both A&M and Texas by a fair amount. We are now bigger than every school, and continue to grow. They are landlocked. Our alumni donate generously to the school no matter their age ... thanks for the false concern
We just "bought" according to this board the number one class, and have announced and mostly already paid for 200M in facilities upgrades mostly for football and indoor track. Those upgrades like the indoor practice field, academic center, etc are all supposed to be done in 2023. Aggie Park near Kyle Field will be done in early 2023, and greatly improve the aesthetics of the game day experience.
We will have, buy or whatever you want to call it another #1 class soon according to Fisher. You might not like it but we are significantly richer than the rest of this conference with the exception of the team down in Austin. Funny enough, we have finally decided to use that advantage. If NIL goes away, we will just continue to pay under the table. Who honestly cares - lawyer up and deny, deny, deny. We are done playing nice - nice doesn't work.
Have a Good Morning, tRant!

right up to the time the rest of the SEC member institutions kick 8&4feit out
a&m has no SEC cache. They have never fit in this conference. Kick them out and take in Oklahoma because I'm not certain the Texas/OU tandem to the SEC will ever happen. OU is a much better fit in the SEC than 8&4fit is.

OU will go nowhere without their lord in Austin in tow. Good luck with that. Bama should know that we aren't afraid to cheat like they do, and we aren't going away

This delusional fricker thinks they just started paying recruits.

Let's simply say we turned it up a notch. We've been cheating at one level or another for a long time, as has every school in the SEC.

It is A&M's choice not to match tu, especially their record in football over the last ten years.
I think A&M is doing what needs to be done with respect to our little sister tu. Just take a look at our recruiting class last year. It still amazes me how little some of you know about all the NIL stuff yet continue to post on here like you are some kind of expert on the subject. Some of you still do not understand how it all works.
The NCAA let the cat out of the bag and is going to have a hard time making and enforcing new rules since each state has their own set of rules. Their initial approach to the NIL was really non-existent. It turned into a free-for-all and is still not under control. The "have nots" are suddenly realizing that this is really bad for their schools. A lot of the "haves" do not fell like it is good for college football, yet they are smart enough to realize that they need to take advantage of it while it is available or they will fall behind and have an even more difficult time catching up once and if it is ever reigned in.

Apparently it's you and your 8&4feit friends that don't understand NIL.
NIL is for an individual to market their name and image with legitimate businesses. It is not for boosters to buy players. Yes, that did happen the last recruiting class, but member institutions are working now to fix that, and it will be regulated.
I realize you 8&4feit fans don't like that, but you don't have to like it.

Nobody will regulate NIL. There literally isn't any way to do so without years and years of litigation. Remember, NCAA already lost this battle at the Supreme Court level. You should just get used to it - you idiots invited Texas, the only school in the NCAA with more money than we have. For now ...
We will pass them in the next decade

Texas has a 42 Billion endowment
A&M has an 18 Billion endowment
Please keep telling everyone how your donors donate more to your school that theirs.

Good. Hopefully Bama and TAMU will have to stop poaching players and tampering.

The NCAA is outdated, antiquated, impotent, and their investigative processes take eons to administer before they ever render their capricious judgements on their member institutions.
Mark Emmert has tasked the Transformation Committee with having the new rules and regulations completed by August 2022 which is hilarious.

And this has nothing to do with athletic funding and are you really telling "big money boosters" are responsible for those endowments?
Please.The vast majority of those funds come the oil land lease deals set up by the state .

Then like another poster said, Texas and USC will win the title every year till it’s dead.
But you people that think a business as big as college football won’t be regulated are seriously dumb.

I would amend that to USC. Texas for what ever reason cannot seem to put together the coaching piece. Something about that campus, and a lack of commitment to playing football. Pretty much the top half of the SEC would be competitive, as well as the likes of Michigan and tOSU.
So not every year

Texas has won a title in the last 20 years. A&M hasn’t won a title in my lifetime.
