The 1890 Initiative

Davison was at practice today with some donors.  That hasn't been allowed by the athletic department previously.

I think On3 has basically become TMZ type clickbait. It's opinion pieces, specially the NIL aspect of the site, is terrible. 

Besides having absolutely no way to compile this information, if Nebraska really had the #8 NIL collective in the country the talent acquisition and recruiting operation would be much higher. 

There is a 0% chance that Alabama has a worse NIL operation than Louisville. Let alone simultaneously having a top notch recruiting class in the fold. That just isn't happening.

Ville has Papa John's money and they are basketball freaks.  Nate Oats could win 47 titles at Bama and no one would care.

Ville is loaded.  They always have been.  They just don't use it for FB as much as most schools.

I don't doubt it. 

What I do doubt is the On3 NIL information that they mostly make up. Starting with the estimated NIL value of recruits (which has no basis other than a players following on social media) and articles like this which they have a 0% chance of having reportable information to write.

NIL is far from the only factor that goes into that.  To try to make it this simplistic is disingenuous.

Your assumption.  Which, as @teachercd noted, is ignorant of the situation.

Oh for sure!  The On3 stuff is probably 75% made up and 25% "This guy with connections told me..." type of stuff.  They have some idea but not a great idea.  

The entire NIL stuff is so secretive.  Even the stupid guesses of how much money players are getting.
