Texas took tOSU to the wall with a QB who can't hit his plate with his fork. I'm seeing rising parity and scared Blue bloods. Give me more.

It’s not just the SEC doing this to itself. Texas Tech is pulling guys, too. There’s enough schools out there with at least one crazy, rich benefactor to draw guys from major programs.

Add to that missing on a portal player can have much more devastating results than missing on an 18 year old freshmen. Look at UCLA this season. Look at FSU last season.

Most of the schools in the big ten outside of OSU, Mich, Oregon, Washington, Penn State and maybe Nebraska or USCw. The other ten teams don’t really care about football like they used to. Maybe every few years you’ll get an outlier like Wisconsin or Michigan State but those won’t be common every year

Bingo. This is the truth. Every state within the SEC and Big ten footprint have several companies who are NIL contributors. But they want to make sure there’s a ROI, and the schools/businesses spending to get unproven high schoolers will learn the hard way. OSU used NIL to keep a bunch of upper class men around last year and it paid off for them

I like seeing Kelly being frustrated because he hasn't benefitted from having one of the best rosters this season. Even though LSU is 3-0 right now.

NIL is flawed but its evened the playing field. Anyone pretending bag men were a figment of the imagination during the SEC rise are willfully ignorant.

Is USC not spending much on NIL?
Posted on 9/16/25 at 1:00 am to kilo
Yep when the 20 million from revenue comes into full effect next season teams like Vandy will be more competitive over the long term.

Illinois and Indiana both have more money than most SEC schools. Mark Cuban helps with Indiana’s NIL. Larry Gies just gave $100 mil to Illinois athletics. Face it. NIL has made more programs relevant than previously. Which is a good thing for the sport. There will no longer be an SEC monopoly. It simply means coaching is more important because the talent is dispersed.
