It is true. We are between 8-12 in NIL funding on a given year. OM is not that much higher. They are between 5-9 on a given year. Their advantage is two fold and neither has anything to do with rich boosters caring more about athletics. Number 1 is their fan base understands this is the way of college sports and has completely bought in. Number two is Kiffin. Kids want to play for him. We have rectified point two by hiring Lebby. And we could be in that tier if the same thing would happen in our fan base. Instead, we have people who want to complain that we can't get athletes, but then say they don't want to participate in buying players. We could have just as many $100/month people as they have, but we just don't have the same buy in.
