NIL wont affect us some of you said.....

I do think NIL will affect us too. However, right now our average player rating on 247 is 87.26. Going back to 2015, 16, & 17 (classes which produced 2018 team), our average player ratings were between 87 & 88. So it seems to me our rating is about where it normally is.

Problem is our competition is increasing their player ratings.

Texas a&m did not recruit this high in 2015

Kentucky, Arkansas, and ole miss are steadily increasing their talent roster.

Auburn wont be down long if they hire the right guy and get their NIL shit together.

Right now I don't see that this year. They're recruiting about the same too. TAM had great year last year but they've been in top 5 / top 10 for a few years now I think. They always recruit better than they play.

Either way I do think NIL will be negative impact to us long term. And recruiting isn't over this year so a lot of money might be spent in a flurry towards December that could produce exactly what you're describing.
