I definitely prefer having a lot less money to move with instate players and people having to watch their ass. At least some.of the time.
Only the top end guys are commanding the money people think NIL is. And more of that s on deals than actual fan money. Give me this over Alabama buying up everybody. Alabama will never again. dominate like they did in the past era. Now, things could change again and will, so we'll have to see then what it looks like, but I'm good with the current situation until it's moved to the schools. I've got a bigger problem with $10MM+ coaching salaries.
