BYU’s typical recruits will still come & will be the “glue” guys on the team.

It's a larger purpose positive as these athletes have a good BYU experience and coaches continue to sign all the top BYU

Biggest upside might be that these NIL guys leave BYU with such a positive

I’m worried BYU just becomes an elite prep school program. Love having some RMs.

Don't like it either but have to admit it seems to be leveling the field in FB & blue bloods hate it. That's good to me.

BYU is showing signs they might be good at the new NIL game.

Im not happy with NIL either. But KY has the goods to bring BYU to Blue Blood level with or without it.

Over the years the Church and some of the members have become very wealthy...leaning into NIL is not going to corrupt
