KY is certainly a big reason for this. But so are our NIL financiers, obviously.

You guys act like we’re the only school with NIL $.

We have some very lucrative industries supporting BYU.

Lance71

Sep 15, 3:49pm

No, they'd refuse to offer admission & schollies unless they had ultimate (conservative) control on what was allowed.

Just like the recruits/families need to buy in…. the donors/admin need to buy in

Crazy to see this much buy in when BYU hasn't been an NBA factory...ever, really.
