how do we compare

I'd be curious to see how we compare. Partly how much money we're bringing in. But also how do our campaigns operate vs other similar schools. It looks like we have a couple of different NIL programs. Is that correct, and do other schools also have several campaigns? Would we be better off with just one bigger program vs several smaller ones? How do our campaigns interact with donors vs other campaigns? I gave a small amount to Triumph but haven't heard much from them, which surprised me a bit. Does VT have one campaign that they'd prefer the money goes to? Or are they all basically equal? What percent of our exiting transfers are doing so because they feel like they'll get more money elsewhere, vs other reasons for leaving? That's probably a tough one to get a straight answer to. Do any of the campaigns give any kind of updates on where the money is going? How much make it to the players vs how much cover expenses? How much goes to football vs other sports?

Why is it that VT lags behind in NIL funding? You would think with 250,000+

I hate the NIL system and it has ruined CFB.

If I fund them now,will they give it back to me when they are playing in

Maybe because there are more important things in life than feeding

Very small number of the 250,000 give more than $100 a year.**

I wonder if we have more of our high$ donors only toward academic side?**
