Plus, you cannot build your athletics around baseball. We aren't throwing a bunch of extra money at baseball, this buyout was cheap and we've always had the money on that side. Just a bunch of dumb 17s defending mediocrity in baseball to protect fat boy access.
No way in hell we can spend an EXTRA $15 million on Football NIL. I'm talking about adding $15 million to the entire "current" expenditures. As Brunswick said, State would still be near or at the bottom of the SEC economy. You want to see Donors disappear? Treat Baseball like an Olympic "so-called" Niche sport. You will lose millions in donations to the athletics department trying to reach up from #16 in football to #13 in football. That would definitely send us to CUSA quicker than the current schedule we are on.
