NIL ?
How much does UW spend annually? OSU spent $20MM this year.

I have heard anything between $8 million and $10 million but haven't seen anything printed anywhere. Maybe this year's meh after such a great 2022-2023 run will motivate more people and bigger checks because a .500 team isn't much fun, especially with OL and DL that aren't good.

NIL Collectives – NCAA Revenue Sharing & NIL Estimates 2025
Excludes private schools, so USC, Miami, SMU (if history is any guide), Boston College, Duke, etc. not listed. I'm pretty sure SC and Miami are way, way up on the list. It's just an estimate, so all the fans of schools can still assume that the teams that beat them are just spending more. But what I think nobody can assume is that their favorite school is just doing it the right way and not buying players. If you're spending in the neighborhood of $10 mil/ season, you're buying something, so it'd better be players.

TYFYS.

I love football and I was a sometimes donor in years gone by. But I can honestly say I’d rather donate to a D-3 school these days so they can charter a better ride to their games, or replace their old uniforms, than enrich a 20 year old kid by making Washington the highest bidder for his services. My ego just isn’t that wrapped up in buying my alma mater a team and professional football team owners don’t hit me up for contributions in order to make payroll.
-
of course, the kinds of D3 schools I care about really don't need my money. one of mine went to a small college whose endowment per student is a multiple of UW's. when you're educating 2,500 kids and the entering class is about 600, a couple billion $ goes a long way.

Fish said preseason that UW spent roughly 6 million on their current roster. I think there was more in the kitty to spend but they only had the one portal and it wasn’t the good one so why overspend when you’re not ona hot seat? Coker recently said on X that with the new revenue sharing at 17m that UW should be between 22 and 32 million for the roster next year. That puts the Montlake Futures contribution between 5-15m. I think I read somewhere, probably X, that Yogi Roth put UWs NIL number at somewhere around 15m for 2025. If the “around 15” number is correct they should be able to plug a lot of holes coming up. I’ve got my fingers crossed that UW won’t be a Big Sky all star team this year. At least shoot for a MW all star team. Lol

Sure, but I was thinking about team specific or athletic department donations. And yes, some of those schools are not wanting for cash for anything. But some are.
One of my girls was a D-3 athlete. I suspect there was a fairly large discrepancy between endowments among the conference members.
If I was living basically just around the corner from Lewis & Clark, for example, as my sister-in-law does, I could easily see myself going to games and perhaps becoming a donor.
-
tow of mine were too. Afro the old schools, which used to be men’s colleges, sports teams have their own endowments to go along with athletic support. In my kid’s sport, the men’s side had their own endowment but the women still fundraise. It’ll be like that for a while though some of us are talking about starting one for the women.

I wish they’d come up with a different label besides NIL for this horseshit. Almost no one is getting comp based off the value of their name, image or likeness.

When regular top 25 program chick’s hoops players want $500k to play, you know this shit has jumped the shark.
-
There are players making millions of dollars having close to 70 starts in college. What the hell are we doing?
-
Same thing as always
Pay for play
NIL is just another improvement allegedly
-
Just call it legal hot dog money already.

It is, of course, total bullshit, but this made me laff.
-
theknowledge dropping the knowledge. I don't trust those numbers completely but some of them make sense.
When does the revenue sharing start? It sure seems like there is one more year of unfettered NIL.
Also, which schools pay for high school recruits and which don't? That may be a separate line item. And UW does not pay for high school recruits or do they?

- Coker made it sound like the revenue sharing was happening now although it very well could be next year. 10-15 million in MF money this year could go a long way to patching this Swiss cheese roster. 5-8 million and we may be looking at another raid of the Big Sky.
- UW doesn’t seem to pay high school recruits. If they did, you’d think they could land a few of those really high end kids they were close on and keep a kid like Ploog. A team like Auburn does spend on HS kids. B2B top 5 classes without a recent track record of winning and a revolving door of coaches. Freese knows he’s got rope. They’ll be very competitive next year assuming they find a QB. That roster is stacked and maturing.

NCAA needs to just pay every player minimum wage and do NIL by the book beyond that then tell the prima donnas to sit out if they don't like it. Make fancy locker rooms a recruiting pitch again
-
There was no reason to spend big this year given what the upside to spending was … keep the powder dry for when it makes sense
The one thing they need to revisit is what it looks like to recruit at the HS level … we probably need to be better here
-
If they put a 10% surcharge on Tyee tickets could that go to MF?
I want to see how Kafusi does with more resources because he has been sucking lately.

I think it's about time for me to switch and become a Texas fan in this new era of college football.
NFL 2024 salary cap per team is $255,400,000.
Texas is at $135,500,000 and gaining. -
Is it against NIL/collective rules to put a player donation option at the end of concession transactions at the stadium? A $1, $5, $10 or $20 button to push when you’re buying your beer, hotdog or pulled pork? I’m usually pretty drunk and I’d tap the $10 or $20 button if it were an option. You get 5000 people to pony up $10 and you’re looking at $50,000. Six home games and you’ve got $300,000. Maybe enough to buy a nice DL or edge rusher. I might even be on the low side of what you could earn here.

I want to be the first to develop an in game QR code. So the only way this really moves the needle is if the broadcast stations get on board but then they’d want their cut… same idea as above to but each time a replay or highlight is shown on the Jumbotron or TV, it shows a QR code to donate to that athlete for “NIL”. I’d imagine as the game goes on, and your team doesn’t suck, you’d see the drunk donations increase. Especially if you're a stud. Patent pending so don’t steal my shit fuckos.

It will never truly be by-the-book

Well that's part of the fun as well. I don't have an issue with that necessarily
