[QUOTE="westoverhillbilly, post: 3157700, member: 70030"] God, I hope that you're right. I remember Barry Switzer noting in his auto-biography that TCU made a run at the big time in the 80s with a significant (legal and ethical) donation from the Landreth family to the effect that nobody supporting OU could or would do at the time. Available money wasn't the problem at TCU & SMU as you stated, it was the enforcement by the NCAA. However, I do think that NIL may backfire on the big state u's (and hopefully not us) in that the players will feel all the more entitled and won't put in the grueling work it takes to be successful- this seems to have already been going on at UT and A&M for a long time.
