Ryan has NEVER said he doesn’t contribute to BYU NIL, much less not significant
donations. Look at his seats. He clearly contributes massive amounts to BYU. He only said he didn’t contribute to AJ NIL, which I assume based on his statement is true.

This doesn’t mean he doesn’t have massive Cougar Club donations, massive FB donations or even that he doesn’t donate to NIL collectives or even directly to other basketball players or BYU athletes generally.

NBA discourages owners from donations to college basketball players, so I assume he isn’t involved in significant basketball player NIL direct donations. Probably mostly recruits and encourages others to donate to basketball. Maybe he donates to other sports. Maybe not. Either way his only public statement was specific to not donating to AJ. At a mininum he has massive donations to BYU athletics/ Cougar Club to have the seats he has.

I guess BYU could recognize his non-monetary contributions like helping recruit KYoung and recruiting/ encouraging others to donate with those great seats, but I doubt it.
