The rumblings suggest we aren't challenged by cash on hand at the moment
Can confirm

Maybe need the dax symbol on this, but seeing our NIL numbers (well members) trying to get to 500, like how strong are we realistically in the NIL space? I know the official NIL is not anything to base it all on, as some donor is always willing to toss money around. But anyone with a pulse on how we are overall? I'd imagine the answer is "perfectly average" but genuinely curious.

I was/am hoping with the facilities push nearing the end the money can now be turned to NIL and coaches contracts.

It sounds like they got a 3 year commitment from BMD to the levels that tang thinks he needs to assemble a roster that can compete for a natty. Doesn't mean we are even top 15 in NIL dollars but sounds like a big buy in.

I'm guessing the roster construction and results from this year helped sell the need for this new target.

Tang and Klieman have both stated that they changed their view on nil the last year. They both have been more publicly vocal about the need to have funds. Before I think both of them, and Gene, thought the coaches could land players without significant dedicated money.

I believe that NIL changes make the upcoming April window very interesting

free for all

now that standard operating procedure is to pay players, does cheating = not paying players?

That's food for thought, 'sclams

But of that 1% any dudes that are planning to export could be very valuable targets for other teams looking to import
