50 mil, that’s it? I bet those are rookie numbers within the SEC.

boosters will start seeing the lack of return on investment college wide, and the NIL well will somewhat dry up.

its currently an arms race, with each year the overall NIL numbers going up year over year. its not sustainable.

sure some schools/boosters will go all in on a year to try, but they cant sustain that over the long haul.....

Yeah, all sports? This doesn’t seem all that high. I’m wondering if rumored NIL numbers for other programs are bogus

If i watch women play i do not want to see a man pretending to be a girl so he can compete at a higher level.....and i know it off track a bit.(4 this thread)

But it stands on it's own.

It’s honestly astounding how much money they throw around just to go 8-4 every year



you have to kind of respect it.

I mean it is a willingness to do whatever it takes, no matter what.
