Is a 25M NIL Annual Football Budget enough?

Thought I read somewhere that we are closer to 30 million with revenue share plus NIL

Unfortunately not year to year. This thing has already jumped the shark, its about to get ridiculous.

Oregon, tx, oh st easily spend more then us. Tx tech could if they wanted (see 5 star ot and dt they just singed, or 1mm on a fing softball pitcher)... double eagle baw on record saying he was given a list of 20 kids from football staff they wanted. He was shocked how quickly they signed almost every kid on the list. He could fund a 50mm/ yr nil by himself, for 30 years, and still have a few billion in the bank. If you want a sense of how absurd it can and will get.

Once private equity crap starts, cfp is over. It's gonna suck. Only thing that can save it is collective bargaining to get 1. Caps, 2. Tied to deals you sign, 3. Transfer limitations that you sit a year if you leave. Other then that.. off to the highest donors races. And this will only come from the conferences all agreeing to these new rules. Ncaa has no power and they are now yes Men bc they cant counter what Congress passed as law. Which is why they bend the knee on transfers being unlimited, etc. They cant afford to defends thousands of law suits. Its politics fault it happened, conferences are the only way back to sense of consistency going forward. And their each too scared to pitch that and lose players, talent interest.

Seems like everyone is getting 25-30 mill

at some point, every NIL contract has to be approved by NCAA as I understand it

gone are the days of just letting this thing go to a 100 million or whatever people can scrape together

NIL must be legit

the player has to prove he's bringing value

It’s all hearsay & rumors about the amounts, but what’s true is LSU will be at or near the top moving forward

We have the guys to compete in the aspect year in & year out

Um no. Yes it has to be submitted, for tax purposes ha. But everything is allowed. Troy aikman literally admitted i paid for a kid and he didn't say thank you, left after 1 yr. You think that player brought value to Troy aikman?? He'll nah. TX tech booster openly discussing how hes buying rosters for every sport ha. Those kids helping sell oil well parts, water transfer services, or exploration surveys... cmon

Yeah, I thought the NCAA revenue sharing alone was going to be $20 million per school...at least to the big boy schools. That of course would not include sponsorship deals, booster money, etc. My GUESS is that the $25 million promised to Kiffin by LSU which he has mentioned publicly does NOT include the NCAA revenue sharing of $20 million. I believe it has also been broken down generally that say MBB gets X amount, WBB gets Y amount, football gets Z amount, bsseball gets some of course, etc. So a good estimate of total football money to pay players at LSU might be around $35 to $40 million.

I’m not sure many understand this….Its one of the reasons Kiffin came to LSU.

Totally agree…. My brother is a TTU alumni and i was shocked last spring when he told me about that Softball pitcher getting a cool Mil…. Crazy times…

It's up to 40 million currently, when you factor in AD net revenue.
