That rule only applies to the non-bluebloods. Kentucky, NC, KU et al. needn't be bothered by such things.Is there a case for tampering? He isn’t in the portal, so other schools aren’t supposed to be contacting. Right?

Tragedy of the commons unless you have a NIL savvy AD to organize the fanbase (not organize NIL). JP likes to keep money going through him.Schools aren’t putting together funds, fan bases are. No reason why this one can’t as well. The school should have a dept to help navigate NIL deals to cut out middle men but that’s the extent of what they can really do.
I get that the mega donors might not be in place but you can put together an impressive fund with a large number of small donors. Get 50,000 alumni to donate 100 a year and you can pay every single football and mbb player 50k a year. Just need someone to organize it.
Tragedy of the commons unless you have a NIL savvy AD to organize the fanbase (not NIL). The direction starts at the AD level, via “compliance”. ADs are the stewards of fan support and what fans should prioritize. Just thinking 50k fans are going to grassroots that is starting at a disadvantage.
Mosts fans still don’t even know NIL and its compliance. They certainly don’t know when or how much a player or recruit is asking.
What is the position of our AD? People say we don’t have a surplus, but our Covid loss was paid out of reserves from previous surpluses. Surpluses that people kept saying we didn’t have.Works if your dept has a Surplus - I suppose.
Our eventual new TV contract probably makes things much worse. Going to be very hard to balance the future books.
What Friendly Spartan says is 100% correct, except he way underestimates the cheapness of our fan base.
Can someone explain to me why this is the case? Seems like every time NIL comes up people talk about how cheap the fan base is yet also talks about the incredible support and attendance numbers? I’m just trying to wrap my head around how thousands will may for season tickets, parking, food, merch, etc but not pony up 50-100 bucks a year for NIL?

I cannot believe people truly think AD's aren't putting together NIL groups off the record. If JP isn't telling potential donors to throw money at recruits, even 10% of what they want to give, these days he's neglecting his duties as AD of a major D1 institution.Big lol
We financed $20 million in debt related to covid. What reserves are you talking about?What is the position of our AD? People say we don’t have a surplus, but our Covid loss was paid out of reserves from previous surpluses. Surpluses that people kept saying we didn’t have.
It's a freaking message board, dude.I understand that this thread is full of batshit crazy conspiracy nuts who won't let this debunked conspiracy go.
I will go back through, but I remember JP saying this then when the year was done mentioned somewhere that they didn’t have to finance anything due to cost savings of surpluses.We financed $20 million in debt related to covid. What reserves are you talking about?
'Intellectually' and 'UNC' are usually never found in the same sentence.It's a freaking message board, dude.
I'm sure the NC boards are full of brilliant treatises best read with tea and crumpets.
We're so lucky to have you here to let us know how intellectually inferior we are to the great UNC...
@isufbcurt I'm wondering what you disagree with? is JP not gonna ask a donor to put money towards NIL payments or what?I cannot believe people truly think AD's aren't putting together NIL groups off the record.

The short answer is people are foolish with their time and money.
They’ll boast how they won’t spend on a player, that’s not enough of a priority to them or enough ROI, yet they spend money on tickets and spend their life on ISU message boards chatting about recruiting and teams. And if the team wins they’ll spend more money and more time.

Who are your sources?There are still people on here who think Hunter might stay?
Move on, people.
My point being, the AD at tons of places is pointing donors to an NIL fund to keep players around.His job is to get money for the AD not individual players.
There are non-AD groups being formed to deal with NIL
