re: Do we have better NIL capabilities than people made it seem at first?

When NIL was first being utilized, we had state laws that effectively limited our effectiveness. Those laws were changed to reflect the needs of the university, and from that time on we've been able to at least be competitive.

Make no mistake, we will never outbid A&M etc, but we also have more to offer than just NIL money, and that is where we are winning these battles. The money is close enough, and everything else we have to offer puts over the top, especially with the kinds of kids this staff tries to hone in on.
