Dykes NIL donation

[Mean Purple]

Our NIL is terrible. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem that we have the donors to compete anymore. What we are doing with what we have is as good as it gets.

Well, hiring an AD from a non competitive sports program does not help.

One loss by three at the reigning conference champs place. Not saying we'll for sure win the rest but might be OK especially if we get back RB and WR #1.

A coach would do that to show they’re passionate about winning, 100% invested, etc

Let’s Dykes donated $2 million a year and we had a top 5 OL, we’d all benefit from it. Just getting Howard Sampson and one other make a huge difference. We go to CFP instead of New Mexico bowl, which is $4 million higher payout. Plus he’s a winner now. I’m surprised ego alone doesn’t drive coaches to donate. If I was Dykes and it was down to $50k to get Sampson and I had $20 million in the bank, it’d be real tempting to step up and get the guy I want. I don’t know of any coach donating to NIL but maybe I’m too passionate. Heck, A&M gives Jimbo Fisher $8 million every year to not coach. He should give back a little. Seriously, I’m surprised coaches don’t pay into recruiting purse. I’m also surprised TCU and other schools don’t formally pay into NIL. TCU knows the value of a team going 10-1 vs 6-5. Its millions in ticket sales, donations, etc.

Dykes should pull an aggie lol.

The board also clarified that school personnel (including coaches) can assist an NIL entity with fundraising through appearances or by providing autographed memorabilia but cannot donate cash directly to those entities

The idea reminds me of the cuss jars that some of the church-going matriarchal women in my family maintained, from around the turn of the 20th century.
