"how can my long-held premise that players aren't making that much money still be right, despite the numbers in the article" and viewing everything through that lens

a couple of things:

1) a starting QB is going to command more money than anyone else at the university. I don't think anyone else would be making 7 figures in a year. I just used "players" generally in that sense.

2) there are other avenues for NIL money than through the university, so your idea that there was only 12 mil to choose from is illogical.

     are you saying he got more or less? (nm) - TigerDelt MU - 6/17 18:55:10
          I’m saying it’s absolutely possible he got that - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 18:56:58
     I wonder if that clearinghouse will pass legal muster. - JeffB MU - 6/17 12:28:16
          I can't imagine it will - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:38:33
               RE: I can't imagine it will - no regulation will happen - nomotiger MU - 6/17 14:40:18
                    Forcing them out after their senior (or grad student) season - JeffB MU - 6/17 14:55:21
                         that's kind of a strange one to me. on the one hand, there - phrejd STL - 6/17 15:21:29
               That's what it seems like to this non-lawyer. (nm) - JeffB MU - 6/17 13:48:26
                    and it's easy to stress test it and break it. no way in hell - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:53:17
                         Of course, the question is what right does this clearinghous - JeffB MU - 6/17 14:25:28
                              and that's the core of the original lawsuit that started - phrejd STL - 6/17 14:30:08
     Can you break it down for us? I'm blocked(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 6/17 09:47:54

                                                                      apparently it's not as hard as admitting you underestimated - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 14:21:06
                                                                           lol no. but keep being naive. it's much easier that way (nm) - phrejd STL - 6/17 14:31:23
                                                                                I'm naive about nothing - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 14:34:33
               dude, if you're going to misquote it be sure to do it before - phrejd STL - 6/17 11:13:37

                                             Take a deep breath - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:22:20
                                                  Jesus. ok tell me, how much did MU spend on NIL last year? - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:23:43
                                                       did you read the article?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:28:16
                                                            yes. and i posted the article for you to read. and i listed - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:35:41
                                                                 LOL, that’s what this is about? - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:43:05
                                                                      no, actually it does the opposite of what you're saying. - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:52:30
                                                                           so Pribula had to get that check in December? - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:57:09
                                                                                lol you think they gave him a $1.5M check? - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:00:14
                                                                                     no, DH - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 13:04:28
                                                                                          oh. so they didn't pay him $1.5M, but they're GOING to pay - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:11:55
                                                                                               LOL - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 13:20:17
                                                                                                    you're comparing a contract that is made public to NIL? - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:28:47
                                                                                                         I’m comparing a contract that is not made public - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 13:33:48
                                                                                                              oh ok. well be sure to factor in the $250K and a lake house - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:37:01
                                                                                                                   the math of 12 mil is irrelevant for the case of Pribula - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 13:43:40
                                                                                                                        so wait. now the article you used to start this whole thread - phrejd STL - 6/17 13:56:07
                                                                                                                             huh? - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 13:58:37
                                                                                                                                  lol sure it is, especially since a third of that was spent - phrejd STL - 6/17 14:12:27
                                                                                                                                       let's say the football team's NIL is 10 mil - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 14:17:31
                                                                                                                                            why make up arbitrary #s when the real #s are given? - phrejd STL - 6/17 14:27:21
                                                                                                                                                 okay, Zoomer - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 14:32:04
                                                                      you'd think most would assume the academic year - Harvey Specter MU - 6/17 12:44:14
                                                                           when the drum you’ve (phrejd) been banging the last - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:46:32
                                                                                you just proved that the semantics are exactly what have - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:55:16
                         they didn't spend $31M last year. - phrejd STL - 6/17 11:33:13
                              so the author of the article is lying?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:23:15
                                   no. you can't read or do math (nm) - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:24:26
                                        did you read the article?(nm) - Fire Marshall Bill STL - 6/17 12:32:30
                                             RE: did you read the article?(nm) - phrejd STL - 6/17 12:36:19
          in '24 MU spent a grand total of $12.4M across all sports - phrejd STL - 6/17 09:59:34
               Appreciate it(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 6/17 10:09:02
     $31mil on all sports while tOSU drops that on just football - Harvey Specter MU - 6/17 09:00:18
          61,000 enrollment to 24,000 at Mizzou - Diamond Dave MU - 6/17 09:50:15
               Mizzou is at closer to 32k.(nm) - Harvey Specter MU - 6/17 10:38:12
                    And tOSU is over their number too if you count satellite - Diamond Dave MU - 6/17 11:30:43
                         not counting satellite(nm) - Harvey Specter MU - 6/17 11:36:25
               but the roster sizes are the same (nm) - phrejd STL - 6/17 10:00:04
                    $127M in football revenue to $56M at Mizzou(nm) - Diamond Dave MU - 6/17 10:08:16
                         Looks like we are just getting put at a larger disadvantage(nm) - Harvey Specter MU - 6/17 10:38:48
                              that's the debate I suppose (nm) - phrejd STL - 6/17 11:21:09
     How did that dude obtain those records? He doesn't show - Carlos Rossi KC - 6/17 08:33:29
          He put a request in (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/17 08:36:05
               Is that like a TPS report?(nm) - Carlos Rossi KC - 6/17 08:52:15
                    did you know - SabertoothTiger MU - 6/17 10:24:46
                    No (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 6/17 08:54:46
