And where is Notre Dame?? And I was also told Oregon has more money than the Almighty. And Surely BYU should be there since they are giving out 7 mil on just one player.
I don’t believe much of anything that is said about this subject

They don’t. SEC schools are set to receive $60 million per school in media revenue alone this year. The $23 million can come directly from media revenues. Anything that fans want to donate for the NIL payroll is independent.

Texas has a current PROFIT of 23 mil that they can just all of the sudden reallocate to throw at players? Doubt it. If they do they are one of very, very few schools

The University of Texas has an endowment of $44 billion. The short answer is yes…$23 million is a rounding error for them.

I was talking athletics financials. You are bringing in endowments now, so I don’t even know

It’s very relevant. Interest on endowments can go to capital construction. In past years, Texas took the athletics profit to use for those purposes and build the best facilities. It can now simply take $23 million to pay players and still have way more than enough on endowment interest to have top facilities.
For comparison - Wyoming’s endowment is $840 million or so.
FYI Notre Dame's about $18.5 Billion
THe actual $$ number at the top end that these schools are going to be handing out has been set...That number will be what all the big schools pay. I would be very surprised if the top 40 or so football schools don't already have plans in place to disperse this money, in its entirety, to athletes as soon as it's legal to do so. For now...NIL and that money is seperate. They don't depend on each other.
Whatever Wyoming does will be a fraction of that. Now that college athletes get paid....athletes at Wyoming and Wyoming level schools will be getting a fraction of the money that the big guys get. This should not surprise anybody.....the programs themselves already make multiples more money than Wyoming .... now the players will as well.

QB Nussmeier, potential 1st-rounder, back to LSU
LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier, considered a potential first-round draft pick, announced Wednesday he would return for his senior season.
Projected first rounder QB opting to stay another year. Do you still question the money top end players are making in college compared to pro counter parts?

That's interesting.
We aren't getting outspent significantly by conference peers.
bau is surprising.

No. Nussmeier wasn’t projected in the top few QBs (lower first round).

To the extent that they are accurate - those numbers appear to be collective only. Boise has other NIL methods too.

There is definite lack of transparency when it comes to how much NIL and other funding is available and who gets what. I still think of the QB who is claim Florida owes him Millions more. The BYU basketball recruit getting $7 Million probably had other multi-Million dollar offers. What I do know is Wyoming does not have the money to outbid most other schools.
At this point .... It's hard to get real apples to apples comparisons. Measuring "collective" sizes is one way...that appears to be what was posted. Nobody knows very much about what individual players actually receive. Ashton Jeanty's NIL "valuation" is just over half of that "collective" number. My understanding (and I could be wrong) is that the collectives sort of set the baseline for what, say, an underclassman offensive lineman might make, but if you are the stud WR, QB, or RB, you can pursue much more money independently.

Boise loses former 5* QB Malachi Nelson to portal. Boise boosters spent a lot of money to bring him in. He didn’t really play much. This is the other side of NIL, spending a bunch of money on a player doesn’t ensure anything.
