A ripple effect
Non P2 teams have some tough choices.
accept they are not that level, and accept mediocrity and with that the rhetorical question, do donors in both NIL and general fund contributors sustain the same level for lower level competition. (give to the P2 and get return on the investment) Will you be able to suatain attendance at events?? and with that the lose in revenue in the region....
Reduce expenses to core programs to compete, meaning dropping sports. (i.e 24 to the minimum level 16. With that will be some hard choices all with emotional baggage.
Hard decisions..

I believe they are talking salary caps for paying athletes, not budget caps**
