Long Beach State Athletics!: Re: Interesting tidbit from UCLA MVB coach on NIL

agree, everybody has to know the P4s are going to channel media money to players

then the $$ donors gave to the AD goes to players, so the AD has to make that up

unless money is just being printed lol

it's a new type of "Money Ball', finding players that can win and not pay out superstar prices and being played by agents

but then Beach is player 'lack of money' ball, lol

Ali’s point. Elevating this up to football and basketball, it just seems that NIL as we are seeing it now, will be difficult to sustain. Not only donors but what will the mindset of college administrators be long term? That is other than some of true football powers, primarily from the SEC.

Re pressers, I also took in the Fort ValleyState presser: the players were wearing t shirts supporting continuation of GCU volleyball

during the NCAA pre tourney pressers, he was asked about NIL

gave an interesting take. UCLA has a lot of MVB Alumni (as does Beach) as Al Scates won huge # of titles

says he's worried about donor fatigue long term

over time, how many times can even P4 schools go to the well asking for donors to fund payments to players

maybe a novelty now

I think Long Beach has a different donor fatigue induced by Jane
