Seven figures for a 20 year old will in fact change their life.

They may not be able to retire, but it will allow them to pursue their passion of making world teams for a few extra years. Or they can take a lower paying job that allows them to coach. Many different ways that substantial NIL can change their lives. I hate the current state of college athletics, but choosing to go to a college other than Virginia Tech, for increased pay, does not mean a kid lacks character and values. ** Edited by TartanHokie at 12/21/2024, 7:46:49 AM
