This is NOT a talent problem folks!

What a lot of people get confused on is that NIL $$$ shown on the players, first off is pretty inaccurate for a lot of them;

And then for the big stars, a TON of that NIL money isn't from the schools NIL funds at all. KFC paying S Sanders isn't using Colorado NIL funds. Quinn Ewers/Manning being in commercials aren't using Texas NIL funding for some examples.

But in the case of Texas One they have a team that aids the athletes in getting these deals. One of the big commercials here is Ewers with the Davis Law Group.  Davis did his undergrad at Texas.

Then you have guys like Bijan that got his own deal with the local Lambo dealership.

You are right though, that doesn't show on the NIL estimate.

Without Rane, we would really be screwed.

Well he needs to get on the sidelines and start screaming at Freeze like he used to do Tubs

Lol. Guy would probably have a stroke now if he did it. Then we would have no money!

This is mainly a problem with talented players not making plays when they have the opportunity.

Can get estimates looking at:

It looks like nothing concrete, all estimates.

We’ve been assured by Mods and insiders on this board that everyone is backing Freeze, everyone is aligned and pulling in the same direction.  NIL is well funded and Freeze even campaigned in early August for more funds to secure prized flips and make headlines with a top 3-5 recruiting class.  In other words, OTV is robust which is evidenced by the current class.  
 

There’s a reason Auburn is pulling top talent and it certainly has very little to do with the on-the-field product or the coaching prowess or the NFL training they are getting or competing for championships or providing an the NFL pipeline for our players. NIL $$ in OTV is doing the work.
