Even with OU and TX, we all share the money evenly regardless of where we finish. Keep the register ringing and upgrading facilities and we'll get quality athletes. Guarantee you there is no "new" booster money flowing into college football that wasn't already there.

Would rather see it put into baseball here. Why expend resources in an area where even at your best you'll be average or below. Might as well throw into an area where we know we can compete and win.

It appears we talking about $5-20 dollars

baseball: goal should be for all 35 roster players to have full rides. Anything above that is gravy
basketball: continue to do it the old fashioned way, under the table payments.
football: not sure. it's probably a losing proposition for a business. have some autograph signings maybe. the way we are recruiting high school players, i would focus on becoming transfer U. make it known as clear as we can that if you come to MSU thru the transfer portal there will be some NIL deals waiting for you. paying x amount of dollars to our QB won't accomplish much. but paying every transfer player 10K seems doable.

The University should take 1 million from the athletic fund for each Big 4 sport and use for NIL. Or take $5 from each ticket sold and put towards NIL. We just have to help ourselves.

He's tried to explain that we have Thursday practice in the stadium so they have limited time and only 4 guys, and that maroon kills the grass in the heat of September - and our typical shithead know it all fans are blasting a pro whose athletic fields win national awards every year.

You do realize, by rule, the university can't do that.
Unless you are suggesting they create a false expense on the books and move money to a private individual who manages the bank account, hiring players and payments etc. Now, I'm certain another school would do that....but State isn't.

What we have to do, is compete with the other fish our size in the pond (e.g., OM, Ark, SC, KY, etc.). I guarantee you OM is already 10 steps ahead of us in this game, for a number of reasons. The fact we have never really taken recruiting seriously, however, will likely prove to be a symptomatic to why we don't succeed in this new system. Its up to the schools to go out and facilitate these relationships. They can do it any number of ways. Tax write offs. Perks. Box seats. Booster access. Etc.
What's depressing, though, is we have the potential to succeed in this system...but we still have too much "ole mississippi state" in us, and we refuse to change with the times.
We're afraid to pay money in fear that we'll just drive up the price & still get outbid by blue bloods
The longer I live the more I realize why our state is close to 50 in everything.

I like this idea. Individually we cant make much of a difference but collectively as a whole this board could sponsor one player to endorse the site and ALL or most of us together pitching in could get well above $3.50 I'm certain.
I know your quote has an element of sarcasm but whoever the player was could be determined. I just don't know how or even if it's legal to reach out to a recruit to offer this
OXFORD, Miss. (WTVA) - Ole Miss campus police ask students to behave at future baseball games following a recent incident.
The university said students were reportedly throwing rocks at Georgia baseball players during last weekend's series.

The sport does need reorganization, but the reorganization shouldn't be to separate Ohio State from Minnesota. Minnesota has a great fan base, a great stadium, & a ton of fan potential. The reorganization needs to give Minnesota a chance so their fan base can grow.
The only way for college football to grow is for more teams to have hope. People in Minnesota are never going to be Ohio State or Michigan fans. If Minnesota sucks, they'll just follow the Vikings or Twins more. The only way for the market share of college to increase is for parity rules that help give more teams a chance to compete

College football is king & most important to our university. Taking resources away from football to give to baseball is a grave grave mistake.

Then why can most other schools pain their field? I think the guy is just lazy

How would painting it maroon instead of white require him putting forth more effort or be less lazy?

If we were smart and proactive MSU would give a business some money from the profit we receive and then the business "gives" that money back to the players.
Too often in football we find reasons why we can't and not enough solutions to reach our maximum. If we did that in baseball we would not have a National Championship. It's like we're afraid to try because we may fail and it's just easier to fail if we expect it and have an excuse like "why don't you give money then to fix it."
Think about it- most everyone agrees that we're going to find a way to pay our baseball players way but we can't find a way to supplement our football players?

Seems logical. But OP would rather a professor step up and sponsor a player. Lolz. OM will have no problem finding a business to sponsor a player we want, even though it won't help their ROI, and said business will write it off as a business expense.

What resources are you talking about? The thread is about NIL, so how would allocating NIL deals to baseball instead of football hurt us? We'll still get our cut of SEC revenue, so those resources can still be allocated as they always have to upgrading facilities, etc.. I still don't think there is any new money being put into the sport, it's simply more visible today than it was before.
