Stating the obvious here but if we have more success in 24

I think you will see more investment in NIL. This fan base is hungry for another winning run. Obviously the SEC and B10 have advantages but I’d be curious to know what is lacking with Tech NIL right now. I know for example people who are alumni and love VT football but would rather donate to their college instead of NIL (cause you go to school to get a job not football). Maybe winning in 24 makes some of those alums invest a little bit more. Winning in football is the end all be all if we want to be in a P2 conference.
