An NIL could cut into capital projects.
If you're a team like NDSU, you want to max out the endowment so Teammakers can fund 100% projects and not worry about it.
Then hope TM or a 3rd party group can organize something for a collective. If we can find someone to approach a new business with no previous connection and organize something it’s not as hard as we think. Let’s say we want to get 100 football playerd $500 each. Thats 50 grand. In return the players who participate have to follow their social media, retweet and share and make a video posting. You have all the players appear in a commercial or video. You duplicate that 4x and thats 2 grand, half of full cost of attendance. For a walk on, thats a chunk of tuition. For a 1/2 ride, that money makes a difference
Seems like everyone on this board wants some chunk of the management structure fired, they’re obviously not earning their pay; some of it can go to the players instead. Money is also probably better invested in the talent than on monuments to donor egos or over engineered billboards anyway which are what capital projects are.

We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie
