[QUOTE="xWVU2010x, post: 132020211, member: 1467482"] Care to share the story of the OL from Nebraska making $100k? I can’t find anything on it, I just found that apparently NU will have $850k go to 90 athletes across 5 sports for an average of $9444. Not really much higher than the the $5k WVU itself is willing to pay for maintaining a 2.0 before any NIL deal comes into play. As I have said, the vast majority of these deals are peanuts. The $50-$100k deals you are so worried about are going to players that we would have never gotten under the old rules anyway and now reloading is getting more problematic as guys such as our former star Tykee Smith, registered a mere 6 tackles after leaving us for UGA and presumably for boatloads of cash and everything else good in the world. You don’t think WVU is pointing to him as a cautionary tale, as well as targeting other great players like him that can’t make it on the field there? Bottom line is you don’t know how this will play out, if it will be good or bad for WVU. Why don’t you just wait until we have a few years of results? We have seen mostly guys making lateral or down transfers over PT concerns, is there any on record transfer yet where a guy left WVU and picked up a ton in NIL other than Oscar… who Huggins publicly beefed with?
