Thanks for the response. This is an honest question. I believe you

when you write, "NIL funds can be handled by the university independent of Triumph Since July of 2025." Where can I find the rules that say that? I'm not disputing, just asking.

Quick search says UT MBB program generated $12M in profit, FWIW.**

How much NIL dd the fans provide for the team to generate that profit?**

Agree there is no way to know exactly what "all in" is in terms of $$$.

GC, this is an excellent, excellent post. Bravo!**

I thought NIL is an “off books” expense since it is not paid by the school
Femoyer Hokie 05/05/26 03:59 PM ET
July of last year was the start when you could bring NIL in-house
GCHokie34 05/05/26 05:18 PM ET
I believe the University can not touch funds that are NIL
Nelsonia Hokie 05/07/26 12:34 PM ET
Not true**
GCHokie34 05/07/26 04:43 PM ET
That is what the AD stated**

There is a lot of context missing here...

Are we finished adding to our current roster for this season?**
YBYSAIAHokie 05/05/26 12:14 PM ET
No, my bet is they add at least 3 probably 4 more
GCHokie34 05/05/26 05:20 PM ET
From the portal? I thought it was closed.**
YBYSAIAHokie 05/06/26 12:32 PM ET
Likely 2-3 from the portal, 1-2 HS
GCHokie34 05/06/26 12:40 PM ET
Doubt it. IF they can find 2-3 more, another big, a PG and a 3-4 wing.**

5 million?That's like the 10th overall NBA pick. This is insane,competing

Ky spent 20 million last year and now the faithful want the HC gone.

That's the thing - if VT spends $5-10MM on a roster and makes the
hokiehill1117 05/05/26 08:34 AM ET
Yeah - no one is asking to match TN in this example….
GoldCoast 05/06/26 09:43 AM ET
Unless youre including rev share, VT did not spend 5-10 mil this season**
GCHokie34 05/05/26 03:41 PM ET
I wouldn't but that's just me.**
ancient alien 2018 05/05/26 10:24 AM ET
I am curious what your target budget would be for VT basketball
hokiehill1117 05/05/26 01:29 PM ET
To be competitive, $8-10 million. 22 wins most seasons. Will it

I think we are on the same page - if we get to spending $8-10MM with

Is that 8 to ten include rev share? or just nil**

To me it waters down the meaning of it all.

Waters down the meaning of what? Only difference now is it's in the open.**
