They are favored by 13.5. I think we all know which way this is going to go. Cheer up though,

I get it only because I don’t think there was much out there.

After Chase Brown's year, your RB sell will arguably never be better

Commenting generally on the O, I think we have a big talent gap.

Thing is, we don't operate in a vacuum... everybody else has high NW donors paying for...

uofi1998

Yeah we are not ever going to be competitive with the high end programs when it comes to NIL

Could. I like the new schedule from a fan interest standpoint

IlliniOllie

I believe we are currently in the longest period without winning the Big Ten
-
Ron McDon
October 9, 2023, 13:39:49
Is it possible that we are putting a higher % of available NIL into hoops than most schools?
-
DT
October 9, 2023, 10:58:31
Out of the power 5, my guess is our NIL is 2nd tier in hoops and like 4th tier in football.

I'm sure there is some money there, but I doubt that it is sitting in a bank unused.

Chicken/Egg issue, and when football has generally been awful for 28 years of graduating...
-
uofi1998
October 9, 2023, 10:40:45
I wonder what % of IFund/NIL dollars come from the people who graduated in the 1980s

IlliniOllie

Agreed*

Imagine where Illinois would be in the NIL game if it had been invented in 1983-84

LWillhite

This. I think we have enough resources to support a winning program

I keep going back to that Avery Jones recruitment.

opossum jenkins

Yep, and what a huge loss that was. Need to be able to bring the resources

UofIL6

Exactly.
-
opossum jenkins

I definitely think that Missouri has more to play with than we do for football.

I don't get why you believe that.

The death of basketball for nearly a decade probably put a major damper in overall interest...

Obviously ICON has a budget and Bielema can't request the moon for everybody

The one thing that’s crystal clear is that there are no more rules.

If it’s 18, it’s 9 a side with 1 up/down each year. Play 8 within your division…
