I am not a wealthy man but we all need to do more.  This truly is embarrassing, I am not sure how we even compete.  I will increase my giving but that is not going to do much.  Someone must be asleep at the switch.  Our fundraising/advancement folks either need to get after it or find a new job.  I am in shock to tell you the truth utsa has got us beat.  Does anyone care?

I asked that when they hired the RV to run the NIL collective.  Leadership is only 50% committed to having an athletics program that attracts fans and donations.  Many may be tired of me saying this,  a Dallas Area FBS program with a poor history and lack of local media coverage that does not publicly make overtures at hiring Coach Sanders once he demonstrated he could win a FCS level isn’t serious about building a winning football program.  
 

I am not donating any extra money until they do the minimum WELL.  The minimum like firing the worse DC in FBS.  Minimum like not letting beating a dome team at home in the cold windy rain save your mediocre coach for a lame duck season.

* These are estimates of Revenue sharing per school allowed under the proposed NCAA revenue sharing model scheduled to become effective for the 2025-26 fiscal year. This table assumes each school will share 22% of its annual revenue with its athletes not to exceed the annual NCAA cap estimated to be $ 20.5 million for the 2025-26 fiscal year.

What's with the idea of "revenue" sharing? I doubt any business in the country provides revenue sharing with its employees, but given the recent trend in poorly educating students on such concepts, I guess I'm not too surprised that the athletes expect it to work this way. 

In the real world, if something like this is offered to employees, it's PROFIT sharing.  So, in this case, the players need to cough up their share of the loss, i.e. about $531k.

I don't think that in the real world if a company loses money they expect their employees to pay it back out of previous profits shared.I paid bonus at year's end when we had a good year , nothing when we didn't, and certainly didn't try to claw any money back.

NCAA Football Teams aren't businesses and players aren't employees... Yet.

Yes.  $2 of revenue given to students is $2 too much!
