Whats our NIL budget? What are we projected next year and whos getting paid what?

":.... and who is getting paid what?" A fair question. When I asked it, a poster responded it might be easier to find out who [all] are in heaven.

If there are going to be more breathless appeals to contribute, I'd like to know our players payroll: even a good estimate.
Otherwise I/we are writing what seems to be a blank check.
 
I don't think anyone really knows. Folks have reported here though that the figures stated on that Trilly Donovan service are much lower than that to be "competitive".
Someone knows, though. If the total is 1.5m how much of that, approximately, goes to the players?
 
That's way above our pay grade---
Asking this question is basically equivalent to asking them to commit a HIPAA violation. It somehow became offensive to question where our blind donations are going. I, for one, am completely over it.
 
My hope is that these other schools with massive budgets that people stop donating to their NIL/cut it dramatically. It's crazy to me that people are putting up millions of dollars for the college team to win a championship- after a while of not winning I'd hope people would stop paying so much. Then we can hopefully be more competitive.

Michigan is going to pay their QB 12 million dollars over 4 years. Thats insane!

Maybe, but maybe also Michigan looked at it's revenue, admissions, etc... after a national championship and where things are trending this year and figured it makes economic sense.

I agree it seems crazy, but this will never go back.

Clearly some people have an idea what the players are getting but it not that much considering our budget

Main question is the budget, how do we double it quickly and how do we get a GM to help with the process
 
we should not spend NIL money and tank for 3 years. every 4th year we should spend the money.

I think you're close. I actually feel like a crappy fan typing this, but I actually think being DePaul level bad might get some of the big money people who don't donate to consider. They may not care about Seton Hall being mediocre, but if we're embarrassingly bad they might get involved so Seton Hall isn't the laughing stock of the big east.

Reading the tea leaves, it’s way too much considering the lack of protection and frankly, the ineptitude. They can still individually go on to have a good season but it might already be too late. Can’t lose to Hofstra and especially Fordham at home and expect to receive an at large bid. The damage has been done. Will remain hopelessly optimistic but it’s just that— hopeless.
