Something like $76M!! Meanwhile the cost of tuition has outpaced inflation by 1000% . College players are professional players now... I forget who it was, but there was a kid who was a guaranteed first rounder but chose to stay in college because he made more money on his NIL than on his first round contract. That's INSANE.

Swivelhead Report post Posted January 15 16 hours ago, Redman said: NFL has more integrity than CFB now. Any program that shows a sign of being good will be poached... with NIL players move and they could move during the season - just crazy. Its a 1-2 year stability at best. Figured Fisch would be poached, just not this soon. AZ schools have a tough time keeping good coaches, better programs and $$$. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Schools that aren't the blue bloods cannot get into the mix cause they cannot get continuity in there program due to money the big boys have that pulls it away from the "lesser" programs. If Dillingham gets ASU rolling, he's likely to leave too even though he is a Sun Devil. He's too young to not keep climbing for the next greener pasture. Loyalty is gone. Money rules all and its sad. Really all you can hope for is that teams like UofA get a season like this every so often and can just be bowl eligible most of the time to be considered successful. On a side note, I find it funny that all these coaches whine non stop about transfer portal yet they move around non stop. Few coaches are at a place more the 4 years. Iowa has one of the last great old school coaches. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lucafu1 Report post Posted January 16 If we can keep our players (looking that way) we will be okay. They will be elevated to UofA all time great status if they continue the success they had this year. I can't believe I will now be cheering Oregon when they play UW.
