I don't know what "ambitious" means; but it does not mean most well funded. West Va. and Arkansas ahead of Georgia, Alabama, Auburn and Michigan?? Tenn only has 2 players in ON3 top 100 of NIL; Ark has none and WV has 1 at 66. Milroe is 8th

It’s all about fundraising and the right donors to make it happen. Saban didn’t like NIL so Bama is way behind a lot of schools when it comes to nil money. We shall see if that changes with the new leadership in Ttown

The bammer "NIL" used to be the Red Elephant Club but I guess that can't compete to corporate NIL sponsorship. REC relied on individual member donations. If bammer is going to stay in the race then some of the rich lawyers are going to have to get off their butts and pony up like AU has Yella Fella doing through his vast business holdings.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Saw a video earlier this week with Chris Fowler from ESPN...he compared what is going on with NCAA sports (namely football right now) to the NFL, but the NCAA sports have unlimited free agency (transfers) and no salary cap (no NIL monetary regulations). This is exactly where we are right now, and somethings going to have to be done one way or another.

Not so sure about the ROI on that one Probably an excellent return. I believe the "LANK" term is owned by him and Terrion Arnold. Also, Milroe just went as long or longer in front of cameras than all but 2 starting QB's in the game.

Not so sure about the ROI on that one NIL value can have more to do with " Image" than on field performance. For instance Bronny is a big #1 and just went scoreles in 2 straight games. Livy Dunne is a "good " gymnast at 3rd but her "image" is , well, you know. Jalen is a smart, well spoken and personable young man. And; the QB at Bama is very visible position. Now if he gets benched; he is no longer visible. We shall see.
