One guy is writing most of those checks (for multiple sports)...and Lagway was a bargain and not a "pay me the most money" type kid. I would agree that winning likely loosens some wallets, we kind of hit that chicken vs the egg scenario there
Yep, and it sure was easy to tell who had the best men and largest bags prior to NIL. They were the ones consistently in the Top 5 and in the playoff hunt year in and year out.
Initially, think that changed ....probably not soon enough. BUT there is still a huge % that won't go for NIL (and I understand why)
Yeah...I mean imagine if you were writing a monthly check for a certain safety on our roster last season who basically quit as the season started and just kind of hung around. Knowing my hard earned money was going there would be nauseating
