Says he's not complaining but they need 13 million in NIL money just to keep the current roster in tact. He may not be wrong but find it interesting he put a dollar figure on it, that you know will be raised by collectives or other NIL people.

Seems kind of low.

Seems kind of low.

Also makes me think a little close to a violation as programs aren't supposed to be involved in the NIL game.

How can a coach who's not to be involved in NIL, quote dollar amounts for his players?

At least he is honest about his now out in the open payroll.

NFL lite here we are!

That's what I'm saying, they cant. Just like telling the collective we are going to need 50 millions for this class.

That’s over $150k per player. That’s definitely a reasonable number compared to what professionals are making.at $150k a year an 18 year old would instantly be in the top 10% of all income earners. It’s just enough money for them to do whatever they want but not enough for them to go crazy.

I hate it when we get the faux outrage from coaches who are now being beat at their own game.

I would just like the NCAA to hit him with a violation for playing in the NIL game.

But Stroud alone would be worth Millions if he went to the portal, not that he will, just saying.

And some 3rd string players with only get 50k a year, it seems like a reasonable average to me if I’m addition you have a good program with a good NFL draft record. Kids are gonna have to get more money to go to a West Virginia instead of an OSU or Bama.

Or theres a bunch of bs numbers flying around

And according to the rules coaches shouldn't be throwing out any numbers on NIL if I'm not mistaken.

This just reminds me of the good ol' days with SMU. They get nailed with sanctions the first time around, and the boosters are told to cut out the payments.

A coach on the staff goes "you don't understand, we can't. We have payroll obligations to the entire team."

Governor Clements, who was also an SMU BoT, approved the payments.

Just an unreal era. The 30 for 30 doc on that program was terrific.

I mean qb’s who are potential top 5 picks are going to skew numbers. The number 1 pick the nFL draft is going to make $6.7M as a rookie.

So even if you have a stroud and pay him half of that around $3m. You can still pay every player on the roster $120k. That’s an average so some people are going to make more and some will make less the point remains the same.

At $13M you have a roster average of $150k per player. Disperse it however you please. Stroud making millions is an outlier to the rest of the roster. Let’s be real how much is the 3rd string C who’s redshirting worth? Everyone always focuses on the big numbers and the stars but most guys are not making more than $10-15k. 85 players and only 45-50 actually play in games. $13M salary cap which is basically what he’s saying is very workable.

 

[The canesman]

Wonder how these schools are going to control their stars making big $$$$ and then transferring for bigger $$$$$$. That hand shake and LOI doesn’t have any integrity anymore.

I just hope Miami has the bread to keep up
