This makes sense and expect that it will be a precedent-setting initiative for a lot of schools to follow. However, the cost will be passed on to the season ticket holders. Looks like wealthy alumni at schools like Colorado, IU, and Vanderbilt have decided to do whatever possible to move out of their respective conference cellars.

that's the greatest thing about what's happening because of NIL, you can go from the basement to penthouse in one year if you make the correct NIL decisions. conversely, like FSU, you can get the portal wrong and drop like a rock. but either way, every single school in the country now has a chance to build a team in any sport to compete to be in the final 8. some schools probably will never get to title game, but i'm sure the final four is good enough for many who've never had a chance to go.
there are billionaires in every state and most have alma maters. look at what byu is doing and indiana is forking over $4million for Cal's qb. and guess what, we've been in the cellar in bball for a few years and our money is trying to bring us back so don't knock other schools when we are int eh same boat. pretty sure bringing jb back to coach football was all about money men in town trying to get us into final 4. so not just Colorado, IU and Vandy, it's Louisville too.
