It's a hard conversation to have but we don't have the resources to fully fund both.
Correct. Until this is all brought under the university umbrella you either have to give to the BDC or NIL. Right now, the choice needs to be NIL. If you don't have the resources to give to both, and a lot of people don't, then give the minimum seat donation to the BDC if you have tickets and give the rest to NIL. It sucks and I get that, but it's unfortunately the landscape college athletics are in. We can only hit up Richard Rula, Richard Adkerson, Heath Jenkins, Billy Howard, etc. for so much. This is where OM has us whipped right now. Everyone from Dickie Scruggs, David Nutt, and Jerry Hollingsworth on down to the young alumni that I know out here in Dallas are giving to The Grove Collective. They understand the importance of NIL. They are all in. We have to get to that point.
