Is this true? Thoughts? Seems a bit low in this day/age if you want to play with the big boys.

Is this true? Thoughts? Seems a bit low in this day/age if you want to play with the big boys. Compared to the big boys that is low. It is still enough to be competitive. Villanova is 3 million budget for their program. I know Benny got 300k from us last year as a commitment. Which was money we lit on fire. I wish the budget was 4 million just to have the ability to poach portal guys but our budget screams we wonât get raided by others and can get nice commits. The extra money would be for targeting kids in the portal but it appears that isnât our philosophy. Syracuse has shown me the last decade they arenât all-in on winning. The leadership has bled itâs fanbase for years and only make moves that they have too. I am expecting to behave like SEC schools and be stupid itâs just we gaslight our fanbase. I would give more if I felt the programs were supported at the top to be winners but I donât feel that and I am sure we could raise more NiL if the commitment was thers.

We have 2-2.5 from Orange United Alone. That is not our only NIL though.

Benny Williams making $300,000 for acting like such an asshole that he got suspended multiple times and kicked off the team doesnât sit right with me at all. And he was terrible at basketball. But if he sucked at basketball but was a great kid and a positive member of the team, I wouldnât begrudge him of that money. His behavior was absurd. He didnât earn that money at all.

Iâll bet 100 bucks that dude is arrested within 5 years.

Pay for guys that are going to transfer anyway, and who may or may not act like complete assholes the whole season? Nah. Take it out of my tickets and Dome Nachos purchases.
