NIL Donor Fatigue

Return On Investment Fatigue Is Real For Boosters

Whether a school wants to admit it or not, there are plenty of high-dollar donors across the country that have grown tired of the lack of ROI.

Let's be clear, these boosters are not going to be happy if the school they donate to is not holding up a trophy at the end of each season. That's a given. But, even while some colleges continue to say they are in great shape when it comes to roster retention and receiving that extra $10-15 million from outside sources.

Heck, Monday morning, current Tulane, and Florida, coach Jon Summrall announced he was donating $100,000 to the Green Wave for its ‘Talent Fund’. Yes, that's what some are calling this period of buying players.

Even if you’re a big boy program, overfishing the same pond is real.

If NIL was "all that" it's built up to be, the Name Image and Likeness $ would continue for years after the college career was over.

Especially for players at schools that win big.

Honestly, if a university cannot lock a player up for his college career, what’s the incentive of buying said player’s gear?

NIL is a bubble. Many fans will quit donating after realizing players leave despite their contributions. A wealthy Arizona State fan is stopping his help due to Sam Leavitt departing for LSU.
Within a couple of years you will see donations drop across the spectrum.

this should be expected - I suspect not many if any NIL donors are in it for the athlete - NiL now allows for the athlete to mine the team donor base and when the team donor base provides little to no NIL opportunities it diminishes the pool of players actually interested in the team

That is the harvest but the gleaning opportunities are endless.

Agree.

I’m hoping the whole damn thing burns down very quickly.
