[QUOTE="Volatility_rivals135605, post: 132059859, member: 1476288"] Louisville ranked approx 35th in recruiting last year and 41st the year prior, but they have Obviously been deploying nil to make such a massive jump in recruiting this year, esp with a coach/staff thats "on the hot seat"... My point(not bragging), that is the difference strategic nil deployment can make for middle of the road programs, if its done so in an aggressive manner. Many dont like the thought of players getting paid, but the times have changed(unfortunately so in many ways). You have to remain competitive off the field if you want to have the talent to win on the field. Because WVU/WV already has many economic disadvantages we have to be more efficient, effective, & creative with how we raise & deploy our assets to deploy strategies that allow us to increase the reach/donation impact. If its merely a linear path we will not be competitive, we wont have a shot at obtaining that realistic high... EX: (hypothetically) Texas can raise 10 mil every year for nil. WVU can raise $10mil 1 time in a 5 year period. We can deploy strategies that will allow an annual return from the $10mill(along with additional annual donations) to make up the difference. [/QUOTE]
