Message: [QUOTE="SUDadx2, post: 5111731, member: 8174"] If you want to to attract top end talent from high school or the portal a program needs to check a few boxes. - Win. You need to win games and not just enough to play in any bowl game, but enough to play in a bowl that people actually watch. Ideally, win enough to make the playoffs. - Coaches who can recruit and who can close. Check. The challenge is going to be to keep them from leaving. - NIL $. Syracuse appears to have improved significantly in this area, but is it enough to compete for 4 and 5 star talent? The CB who just decommitted from Alabama is probably going to a school with very strong NIL opportunities. Most of the discussions in this thread are not talking about the need for NIL $. It is still the elephant in the room. Syracuse will not be able to compete without it. These funds need to be replenished every year. [/QUOTE]
