[quote]Good point Jville.
I also saw an interview with a recruit, where he spoke about NIL. He said during the OV, Auburn had a presentation to speak to him and his parents about NIL, how it worked, the payments, and how to structure investments for tax purposes, etc. Withholding for taxes quarte...

[quote]So another question comes to mind. In basketball, you have 13 scholarships. What if they want/have more than 13 qualified players. Can they just tell the 14th person that we don't have a "scholarship" for you, but here's an extra 50K in NIL money to pay for the things the scholarship pays for...

[quote]That lack of consistency will eventually drive Auburn fans mad. [/quote] Lol you haven't followed Auburn - we're numb to inconsistency.
Brother Hugh is potentially top 5 even top 2.

Awful that we wasted that talent and how unappreciative (some) of the fanbase was.
