Buckethead, you are behind the times.
Resident Student Fall Semester Tuition and required fees total - $ 4,555.00
Out of State Tuition is around $12,000 per semester
Use the 11.7 on out of state. Stack leadership. Raise 300k a year for out of state players.
That's where you need somebody like built bar above. Not gonna get that with crowdsourcing or autographs or Merch sales.Quote:

The players who signed the NIL deals will wear Built branding on their helmets in practice and will also "participate in experiential events" for the company, the school said. Walk-on players will also do additional social media and experience promotions as part of their deals.
That's a great company that cares about the kids.
If it was organized, we could get 300 people to give 1000 dollars each easily. Several on here would do that right now. Or 1000 people to give 300 dollars each. Just has to be organized by somebody or a PAC.Quote:

Once the players get paid and people see its real...i think it's going to pick up. They might sponsor more players next year.
We don't need 300 at $1000. That would be amazing but I feel having more manageable levels (like $120-150) is the better way to go. With different levels of access.
So with NIL instead of hoping to limit scholarships to help parity in college football, you are now going to have the situation of some schools with unlimited scholarships.Quote:

So It's not as much money as you'd think.
Just seems like now you are going to have players that turn down a school offering a free ride to go to a school as a walk on that is NOT offering a scholarship but he knows his school will be paid for by some booster affiliated business there.
I believe the out of state cost get waived for sports, band and other certain extra activity.Quote:
