I don't know. Anyone who picks a school because of $$$ may not be someone we want. Where is there loyalty going to be? What happens if they bust or next year someone gets more money than them? I see a potential for headaches with these kids. I like Sark's policy. Just win and keep putting players in the NFL and the recruiting will take care of itself.
I know Sark has said he doesn't want people who's first priority is NIL, but it's a difficult balance, if multiple schools tick all a kids boxes and one has a substantially larger NIL, it's easy to see how that could sway him.
We need to be competitive in NIL to participate in the arms race. I have zero information, but it seems like our NIL is slower to react, and maybe less aggressive then a few other schools, which is a bit frustrating.
It seems too early to panic on recruiting, given how well the staff has recruited since they got here ,now they not only have hype and potential to sell, but also results.
If we are really the Jones's then we should be able to adjust to the rapidly changing compensation model, and mostly come out on top.
