Maybe “comments” would be more appropriate? What does this mean for them?

Probably nothing. It's a real school so they won't just buy the good players in the portal.

Would not think 50 million moves the needle much in the grand scheme of running a football program.

Unless Stanford decides to put all of that nil.. Even then..

Story says NIL and scholarships, no capital improvements.

If all to NIL, probably enough for a good 3-4 year run if they spend it wisely.

Thoughts? That's a whole lot of money that could buy poor and homeless people in california or Louisiana food and shelter but sure lets keep giving to these rich college football players!

Stanford is 2nd only the Harvard when it comes to billionaire alumni (93) and the most of any P4 school by far.

Could be a powerhouse in the NIL era if they GAS about sports.

I think this guy is getting ripped off. $50,000,000 to get your name on a tunnel and a gate?
