If we spend too much again, we'll have to open up a satellite campus in Saudi just like the Aggies.

They’re way up for 2024

If we enjoy winning we need to all get involved. It's that simple

I haven't heard anyone complaining, I'm sure things are fine on the money front.

They’ll be up. I’m not sure what “way up” means here. By gross dollars? Up, yes. By percentages? I wouldn’t call it “way up”.

I saw it reported elsewhere that our collective currently had $22-24M and was the highest for all schools.

Everyone should be careful about conflating overall NIL with what is run through the collective.  Total numbers like those quoted include corporate and outside support like Burnt Endz for the TES. DR Pepper and myriad other corporate programs aren’t going through TOF, to be clear.

Simple. Go recruit a family member of a Saudi prince to become a horn.

One of those is an alum. Graduated in the mid 90s. Close to a friend of mine that played football at UT

I guess it's also important to point out that we're competing in a more sports than most universities in the NIL landscape.  Football, Mens and Womens Basketball, Baseball, Softball, Volleyball, T&F, S&D, we invest to compete for national championships in all of those programs.  

My monthly donation pays for maybe a couple of chick-fil-a meals, but we make it nonetheless.

Nice work. We contribute as well.

Nope. It is actually kind of sad how few of people we have donating, although I expect that to increase now that the LHF is awarding loyalty points for it.  Everyone enjoying this success owe a few very generous people for making most of this happen. The small donor base has grown but I don’t even think we have hit 1500 donors on that yet…definitely not 2000 unless there has been a recent surge.

Getting another coach will not fix the real problem. The problem will remain no matter the coach.
