    I would be surprised if it takes too long for us to get some overseas talent to X. Miller seemed to have a decent pipeline of guys while at Arizona.

    Re: NIL money

    Does anyone have any idea what X has to offer here? I've seen people saying we have nothing and then I see people saying we have a good amount.

    Another poster in the Freemantle thread said he has heard some of our guys are making as much as $250,000 in NIL money this year.

    I feel like that's pretty good right? I mean I don't expect X to be able to drop millions like some schools (cough Miami FL) but 250k seems good.

    I do not believe the $250k NIL amount. Just saying.

    I was shocked by that number, so yes, I think it true it is very good.

    For what exactly? I mean are players literally being paid to do nothing? I see no X guys pitching anything or out signing stuff for cash. Can you buy a Colby Jones Xavier jersey?

    Therein lies the problem with NIL. No guidelines or rules about services rendered for what money received. Seems like the Wild West out there.

    I guess it’s like the more star power the more they can charge for their appearance? Only explanation I can come up with…

    What appearance? Name, image and likeness on what. I am not aware of any X players on anything, anywhere. No commercial spots, no autograph signings, no posters, no jerseys. What am I missing here. Is it really just deep pocket donors paying kids to play at their school? Nothing else required in return?

    For the most part, around the country, yes. Though I did see a bunch of the guys tweet about player cards lately. I’d guess that’s the “NIL” work around.
