Some here with kids would pay more to an athlete than give to their own kids. Sorry judge, my child support is backed up I had to give to my last few checks to the NIL fund at Tennessee. You know judge, I gave my all and they still went to Texas AM

Ok @Freak here it is...

Add a premium membership where all the proceeds go toward funding NILs. It’d be optional so it wouldn’t damage the spirit of having a free message board. Word would travel fast. My guess is you’d pull traffic from TOS because people would want to be part of it.

I wouldn't risk money on this venture.

35% of the 2019 top rated players by position groups have already left the school they initially signed with. This number is rising everyday with players going into the transfer portal. I won't risk money going to someone that may be gone in 2 years.

So you're thinking a better NIL strategy would be to focus on retaining good players instead of using it to recruit good prospects?

I'm just saying from a personal standpoint, investing in players where the trends are moving to more of them leaving rather than staying doesn't make financial sense to me. I wouldn't invest my money in that.. too risky and unpredictable.

Trends overall on players staying at same school are approaching 50% leave before graduating. this will increase with portal IMO. just not sound investment.

Certainly spending on prospects makes zero sense to me. those are totally unknowns.

There has to be a way to govern the NIL and the portal. Otherwise you’ll have kids that sign with a school, get a huge NIL deal, transfer after one year to get another deal from another school. Kinda like the OSU QB, but a kid that will actually play and contribute as a freshman but is only chasing NIL money.
I’d bet money(if I didn’t already give it to the Volnation NIL fund) that the kid that just signed with Deion Sanders, will be at a D1 school next season.
GBO!!

We TN boosters have to do something. Just look at the TX deal with "The Pancake Club" $50,000 per year to each of 16 lineman on the team.

You’re fixing to see two players on the floor with Memphis tomorrow with 6 figure NIL deals. How do you think Memphis got them at the last minute? It’s called outbidding the competition. This thing is out of hand already and it’s going to get wilder.

sorry, a half mill ain't cutting it. you could do what prime time did tho. get an aflac commercial deal and use a third party to funnel to players.
