Wouldn't believe the $$$ part of the rumors. BYU will be competitive but not crazy.

The rumor in question is a $2mm offer for 1 player, which is an ncaa record high

BYU doesn’t pay the players for NIL. It’s donors and sponsors mainly.

I can understand why we'd be more leery about throwing a huge chunk of money at a kid in the Portal.

Could be smart if it keeps the locker room from having issues.

Yeah, but we're without a Marquee player right now. I think Trev understands a guy like Jax is gonna be a bit more.
