How much NIL $ has BYU paid the bball roster? How much $ has Ryan Smith

ALUF 1990

Word is that Ryan Smith isn’t close to the #1 NIL contributor.

That rumor/myth has taken on a life of its own with UU fans.

Sep 6, 9:21am

They’re just hoping to make it popular to dislike the Jazz and hit Ryan’s

stoils

Sep 6, 9:48am

I kind of love that it really bugs UU fans that a BYU fan/booster owns the Jazz

Sep 6, 10:04am

There are/were plenty of BYU fans repeating that thought. I hope we can change that narrative, in time.

Outing donors that wish to be anonymous should be banned.

I wasn't outing donors. I was joking about who makes up the Mormon Illuminati.

I would hate for Utah fans to go after donors.

ParentingNotForSissy

Sep 6, 10:36am

That would make for a lot of Smiths, Christensens and Jensens to go after...like half of Utah Country.

Don't joke about that, or the Nilt'zns will send their goons after you!

And the same people are there for football and facilities improvements as well.

What set off the big change???

Probably a combination of NIL finally being kosher and shock of Pope’s departure

I’d guess they’re in the $5MM-$8MM range this year with commitments for much more based on who they are recruiting.

mulletino

Sep 6, 9:12am

Idk if we're getting into that range this year but we'll certainly be in that

Sep 6, 9:18am

I think we’re easily over $5MM:

More than that is available

A lot has come from tithing and some from fast offerings

specifically from funds whose records are flagged as "Ute grads"

Isn't that an oxymoron?

Sep 6, 9:17am

Our tithing slips have been updated with a "BYU NIL Fund" line. Haven't yours?

Here's my complete guesses. Zero inside info

Sep 6, 9:17am

There are some schools where women's basketball players are making 6 figures.

Sep 6, 9:20am

That's probably true. Here's my reasoning.

Sep 6, 9:27am

Many orgs (many reports that BYU fits this) keep similar positions in a range,

I think that's probably pretty low for some of those guys.

CalGTR

Sep 6, 10:47am

These numbers are almost all too low. I think you could double most of them.

Sep 6, 11:19am

There would be mutiny if the disparity were that great from Demin. All #s are Way low save Demin.

Double your numbers and you might still be low, but close.

Not positive on $ amount, but they each receive a healthy stipend of Ute tears

Czar-castic

Sep 6, 9:30am

But those are near worthless, since there is such a surplus in supply.

squidmark

Sep 6, 11:49am

worthless? Ute tears have been found to power entire cry closets!!

I’m surprised you guys don’t with a reasonably successful past in bball.

We invested the 80k from Utah in Nvidia options. Now we have money for NIL.

Hey, don't worry, you have your trucks. That should work.

Thing with basketball is that it can tap into the social status scene

That's nice... Who are you and why are you here?

One thing we do know is that money wasn't there when Pope was coaching.

Ryan Smith: $80,000 in lifetime NIL contributions to BYU to date. Players

Sep 6, 11:43am

But why? Why do you wish that? Why care about some random state school

Not to be quoted, but the word is there is an “old money” group of five donating

I also understand that although Ryan is a very key alum, his contributions are a fraction of the donations
