For anyone who does not know how badly behind Rutgers is in NIL and athletic revenue and general support, go to nil-ncaa.com/big10. Rutgers has the worst numbers by far of all the B10 schools,along with Maryland. Eye opening information. For example,Indiana has three times the estimated NIL money that Rutgers has,and the other schools have four to six times the amount of money. Ohio State has a $20 million fund, Maryland and Rutgers barely have over $3 million each. The average for B10 schools is about $10 million. Same goes for revenue and other contributions. Rutgers is so far behind that it may well be insurmountable.

Between very little NIL money & a coach that never deserved a extension and is not a good decision maker on game day & his coaching philosophy has come & gone we are doomed.

Coach Schiano should give 1/12 of his salary this year to the NIL fund cuz he sure as hell crapped today’s game down the toilet. Fans want winners. If coach single handily blows the game why would I contribute to NIL. The coach should write the check

I suggested the same here a few weeks ago and was laughed at.
Schiano can certainly live on 3 million annually.
3 million to NIL can definitely help.
 
NIL $s are important, but not nearly as important as building a new Fieldhouse. I always hear from a knowledgeable poster on this site that we lose a lot of recruits because we don't have a new Fieldhouse.

We have literally been talking about this for the last month. Where have you been?

I don't know that those are verified NIL numbers and not the actual NCAA website. I've said before it's all opaque and no one really knows what anyone has and they don't allow it to be published either. It's also not all money and we don't know how it's booked if it's an in kind transaction where you don't get to keep the actual compensation.

Next year when schools pay players NIL and have up to a low 20M+ cap then I think you'll see what everyone is spending as I'm guessing that will actually be public info like coaching contracts etc.. There will be some NIL outside of that though which will still be opaque but some schools may shut those down like mentioned UCF is doing in the article above.

It appears not to be official ncaa information but stuff developed by a cpa who put together some sort of website scholarshipstats.com.

I figured it was just an interested fan compiling numbers. Budgets, revenues, expenses of an AD is all publicly available info and verified but NIL is nothing like that and is opaque, hearsay, secretive and unverified. No way to know what's what for sure.

When NIL gets brought in house next year and schools can pay player then I think we should have a better idea with the assumption that that info will be publicly available. There will still be NIL outside of that which is opaque but at least the 20M+ cap part of school generated NIL should be transparent...hopefully.
