While this just tugs at the heartstrings and all, there are a few problems here:

1) they’re not “kids”. they’re in their 20’s. 

2) i have been all for wealth transfer when merited during this NIL transition. when merited. this isn’t that. this is a guy saying “go find more alums to pay my mediocre brother off so he can mooch less off of me. “

Maybe you don’t contribute to NIL so it doesn’t matter to you and you get to cheer for the results of NIL’s largesse anyway. Some of us have been quite involved with NIL and are getting really sick of this end of the nonsense. 

So yeah, I will be rooting against these two paid professionals in adulthood. You do whatever suits you, and tuck the naive admonishments away for private time. 

Congratulations on contributing to Texas' (or whoever's) NIL, that must make your opinion somehow more important than mine. Again, I will choose not to root against kids that are trying to make money. Thats called capitalism, isn't that how you became so wildly successful that you were able to be involved so deeply in NIL? 

 

I agree, the NIL stuff is getting ridiculous, but this isn't the first time siblings tried to do something as a package deal. Furthermore, Zachariah Branch, at least in my opinion, is a rare talent that just hasn't reached his full potential yet. Honestly, the same can be said about his brother, albeit to a lesser degree because he isn't as talented.
