I’m running into more and more former fervent donors across multiple universities that, due to NIL, are done and walked away. A common theme is they’re putting up money for their own child to attend college yet their program needs 6 figure money to give an athlete with zero loyalty. That P2 money will only go so far in time.
It will all crash and burn one day.
The Napier era and Des era are not the same. Billy didn't have to worry about the transfer portal nor NIL. Michael has had those issues since he was named head coach. And Billy isn't exactly setting the water on fire in Gainsville Florida. Saying he has his back up against the wall is an understatement.
Building a roster is now year to year and the quicker everyone involved learns that, the better. It’s no longer about developing a roster with high school kids bc you will no longer benefit if you succeed.
Go out and build your roster year to year. Loyalty is out the window and let’s be honest, there was never loyalty. I see tons of former players rocking purple and gold, loyalty has always been an illusion.
And Napier did not have to worry about his leaving head coach poaching the lions share of his talent as he departed. People need to just quit trying to lay the Napier standard on CMD. Their respective issues and what each has to deal with are as different as apples and oranges.
