re: Find it hard to believe OM can pay 30-40MM in NIL

Ok man. Be wrong and be arrogant about it. But you want to be right. I know I'm right. Have a great day.

Imagine believing Ole fricking Miss is spending more money, on average, than Texas for the last 4 years.

You are one delusional little man.

Your research is way off. Texas and A&M have spent way more than 20 Mil a year.

Am I the only one that finds it strange that average Joes on the Internet think they have any clue how much money one university has or doesn’t have? I’m not even talking about just this situation, it happens all the time for all different schools

Like, where do you come up with your opinion? How did you come to the assumption that Ole Miss does not have this kind of money? I’m not trying to be an a-hole, I’m genuinely curious.

It's the same mentality that compels people to follow private jets and draw dumb conclusions from that. Everyone thinks that everyone else's college town is a total backwoods dump full of drunken reprobates, and every school is nothing but a hick school. So, if a private jet shows up in, lets say, Oxford, the only reason it could be there is for the football coach, because no one else could possibly afford it. And, only a very few schools have any money whatsoever, because most are hick schools in dumpy towns.

If you are saying they spent 20 million on top of their rev share then I would buy that. But zero chance 20 million total for Texas.

---

I’m talking about collective funds outside of rev sharing you fricking dunce.

Ole Miss is not putting up $45+ million each year a year for Kiffin, his staff and the roster, ON TOP of the rev share, every year.

It’s completely unsustainable and absolutely not happening.

You’re under the impression Ole Miss is a top spender in the conference. They aren’t. They are absolutely middle of the pack, and below both LSU and Florida.

They won’t be able to do it consistently. And with their reliance on transfer portal, a couple of misses on players will mean certain doom for their team as they have a weak recruiting base.

This doesn't mean what you think it means. Let me educate you.

Each conference school gets 18 million to pay salary for their athletes. No NIL requirement. Show up and get paid.

NIL is on top of that and was formerly run by collectives. Now the collectives help guide NIL deal to players. They are the go between.

NIL and Rev share are 2 different pools of money. If you can't figure that out then you need to go back to 9th grade.

I’m fully aware of this, you mental midget. Apparently you cannot comprehend that I am not referring to rev share.

Let me make it simple for you. Ole Miss is not sustaining $22 million each year for just the roster, on top of the rev share.

I know, I know. You think Ole Miss is already spending that, but they aren’t. That number is INCLUDING the rev share.

The new number from Ole Miss is $40 Mil a year. 40-18 = 22. That’s $22 mil a year Ole Miss has to provide, OUTSIDE of rev share. And that’s just for the roster.

Hence the stance, Ole Miss cannot sustain $20+ million a year, every year for the roster, on top of another $20 mil a year, at minimum, for Kiffin and his staff

fricking idiot.

You were the one talking about the last 4 years pre rev share and throwing numbers around like it was fact. When it absolutely is not.

---

Because you said Ole Miss has been spending $20 million a year on the roster. They have not.

quote:

---

Ole Miss has been on the frontier of crowd funding. You can look up article after article of how the Grove Collective is a model tons of P5 schools are using as examples.

---

Cool. They still haven’t been spending $20 million on the roster every season.

quote:

---

LSU just wants their big money people to do everything. You don't understand how the game is played.

---

I understand Ole Miss hasn’t been spending $20 million on the roster every year.

quote:

---

How do you know ole piss spent over $20 mill then?

He doesn’t. He’s making shite up.

Kelly came out and said LSU spent $18 million on the roster this season, can he show us a quote from Lane about how much they spent? Im not holding my breath waiting.
