And y'all are worried about NIL...

What if the team sucks? Can the fans get a “Lack of Talent Rebate”?
At least I'll admit it when I miss something, and when I'm wrong. Now that being said, do the math on their facilities and their ticket prices. That is a recurring source of revenue we can never match. It doesn't matter if John Grisham decides to leave his entire fortune to our NIL.
Isn’t this what you guys want? For the athletic department to “pay for NIL”? Where do you think the athletic department money comes from?
for those of you that say “TV money”. That’s from you as well.
Oh good grief, all I was saying was that we can't match what they will get from their 10% even if we match it. Go somewhere else to argue with yourself.
I was wondering if it wouldn't be better not to announce it. Just slip it in, most people won't notice, use it for NIL purposes. And you don't have to listen to the bittching.
UT doesn't seem to have that problem - on the whole they love winning, so the 10% doesn't matter. But with some fanbases, bumping tickets from, say, $100 to $110 without mentioning it probably makes better sense.

Why not 20% and don't tell anyone why. Just do it and shift the money to NIL. Bump up parking by $20 and increase concessions by 20%. Add 20% to all licensed apparel and cowbell sales. Add 10% to everything sold on campus for additional NIL. Add 10% to tuition as well. Make it a "player's tax". That will increase NIL funds!
this sounds very much like an NIL Sales Tax where only the EVERYBODY who buy has a stake! I like it!
