The more college sports (baseball included) becomes about straight out paying recruits and transfers to come to your school or keep them there the more the advantage swings to OM in everything. They have way more boosters with extra spending cash interested in doing that than we do and have already been buying players under the table for years anyway. NIL in its current form is not going to go well for us. Yes, we will have a big athletic budget just by being in the SEC but you can't use that money to buy players unfortunately. We don't have the doctors and lawyer graduates that just have money out the wazoo to throw away on buying college athletes.
