Maybe I have missed it… but I think this is the first time I've heard about a multi year NIL deal.

Looks like it's a revenue share deal so it comes out their $25 million team allotment I guess

And they still won't be in a championship game.

Just straight up buying the championship has not worked out for Aggy...we will see how it goes in Lubbock

For the sake of colleges football, we need Texas Tech's experiment of attempting to buy success to be an abject failure. Conversely, we also need a low-budget team to be highly successful. Here's for hoping for both!

$5.1-M over 3 years is $1.7-M per year out of the $20.5-M annual revenue share.

Subtract their $1-M softball player and that leaves $17.8-M to be divided among all the other athletes.

I'm trying to imagine how all the other players will behave around Ojo if he doesn't pancake a defender on each and every block.

I'd feel a little safer spending that kind of money on a multi-year deal on more of a proven commodity in the portal than a potential stud coming out of HS.

I guess it takes a lot to get someone to live in Lubbock.

The pressure will be very intense on McGuire going forward. That is the downside of bragging about how much you are paying players. I don't really see any other XII school that hypes their pay quite like Tech. I personally think their approach isn't going to serve the actual staff and perhaps as well the athletic administration very well. I'm not even a Tech partisan at all and I'm thinking for all this money they keep announcing they are spending, it is a imperative for them to make the XII title game this up coming season.

Ask a question re: personal information and a school will hide behind the cloak of 'student confidentiality'. Not so re: how much you are paying them to play football.

Welcome to the new world. This is the reason why my future Saturdays will be spent weedeating and raking
dog s h I t rather than watching College Football.

I now much prefer watching the divas that play on Sundays. They are at least a tad bit more mature.

Call it a tax, the people are outraged! Call it a tariff, the people get out their checkbooks and wave their American flags!!!

How would you like us to hold you accountable to this pledge? Since you are sacrificing so much, many of us want to know what we can do to help you meet your expectations.

The Kool-Aid is STRONG with this one! I am sacrificing nothing. Gave up my 4 season tickets after 22 seasons.You seem to have NO CLUE. I have zero expectations for Baylor Football. I will not be disappointed one
bit with Baylor Football in 2025.

Will always root for Baylor Football to defeat their Fall foe on the gridiron. I am just one man. My opinion on the state of Baylor Football is insignificant and irrelevant. Baylor made this very clear to me in 2015 and beyond.

you gave up 4 tickets. Thats possibly 4 less baylor fans in the stands every game. 4 less loud bears helping create a home field advantage. But see ya down the road. You clearly were never a real fan. Fans dont turn their backs on their team for any reason, especially something so trivial as players legally get paid now

But your opinion also was clearly relevant enough for you to tell us about your choice to stop supporting the team voluntarily. And to be butt hurt over something a decade ago that has zero impact on this program currently. Im sorry the bear touched you

You are the perfect fan. No doubt. I admire your blind loyalty. As I told you, Baylor did not value me as a 22 season ticket holder either. It is done. In the past. It really does not matter at this point.

Evil flourishes when good men do nothing. My position is clear. And you? We shall see.

No doubt the devil is shaking in his shoes because you stopped buying season tickets. But he still holds the souls of the sinners who continue to buy them.

Decades of support for Baylor, or any other school, is done for the purpose of just wanting to, because you have that feeling inside. It would be nice if one felt some modicum of appreciation for all those years and all that money and time spent, especially when it gets PRed that way all the time. But it doesn't always happen.

Sometimes you just gotta rake the dog poop out of the yard, if that provides its own sort of satisfaction.

Agree with you, Jim. I still get angry when I think about what could have been. Baylor and Penn State are the two best examples of how not to and how to handle a scandal.

But it should be a good lesson of what can happen when you have weak leadership in place. I do have great respect for everyone that has maintained their loyalty through this mess. I tip my hat to all of you.

Not sure Penn State handled it all that well when the President and AD served jail time...and the football coach dropped dead shortly after...

While our President quietly resigned...the AD found another job...and the football coach got a settlement that would stun a mastadon.

Still wondering why our Christian university paid out $17 million+ to Briles and his attorneys if he was guilty of such heinous crimes.

McGuire hasn't proven (an elite college HC) dick yet. But can't fault him for running for the cash while one can. Everyone else in his profession does....

Seems like you are calling out someone for posting their opinion on a fan site, which is weird to say the least.
