The average college football fan has no idea how many scholarship football players are struggling just to get by. Its next to impossible for a football player to have a job during Fall and spring semesters. I know of a few that were able to get Summer jobs, but transportation is a problem for many of them.

Well like I said I would like them to have that money, but that does not mean that the question if we have it to give away is not a fair one. Initially I (maybe naively) thought it could come out of the athletic fee... but I have no clue about the rules . Can it? Does anyone know?

Also: someone expressed the view a lot of that money was already bound. Is there someone who has more than a vague idea how much is already bound (sorry am too lazy to make the whole internet investigation myself)

      Morris signals it is over

      I'm not talking about anything NIL related until athletic departments inevitably take that over. In the now, I would start by cutting football support staff in half. I would push that money into basketball for recruiting, uniforms, in-season basketball marketing campaigns, pre-season meet the team night wit pyroworks, lazer shows, fog machines, giveaways, etc, basketball guest speakers for team/alum/fans, etc.

      Meet today's 2024-25 Mean Green???

      to paragraph one...agreed. this team had a +2 rebounding differential (+1 on both ends), good for 122 in the country. so above-average. -1 in blocks, so that would be nice to see go up. we we +1 in assists, but -1 in turnovers...and I put a lot of that to not having a legit PG. to paragraph two...I think that dude is Atin Wright. 14ppg last year as the secondary option to a 20+ ppg scorer in Tucker DeVries (who just transferred to WVU). Wright averaged 16.7ppg in his last season at Cal-Northridge as their lead volume shooter...went to Drake and took 2 fewer shots a night. I bet he's gonna be looking to get those shot numbers back up and if his improved percentages stay pretty consistent, that tracks for a 15-20ppg player.
