Purdue picked to win Big Ten

We are starting to see the “brand” doesn’t have that much pull, even if NIL donors can bring $$$ to the table. Rumor is IU had the highest offer to Reibe, but he still went to UConn. Rumors of exact same thing goin to happen with Mullins.
This was exactly my point in our earlier discussion. NIL money can only bring so many recruits to the table.

If you lack any success, culture or development of players. They will find what avenue fits their own agenda and sometimes it's just not about the money. We can only speculate but there are reasons why kids choose other programs vs getting the big pay-day.

Right but the IU fan base insists that their “brand” and NIL will be able to attract the highest of recruits and…it’s not. You can say well look at their transfer portal guys..and yeah money is the number 1 factor that got them to IU—nothing wrong with that since that’s what is todays world with college sports, but to still say the IU brand is thought of highly by recruits and transfers is…something 😂
