It's my understanding that roster sizes can now reach 105, up from 85. USC is facing schools raising their NIL money to astronomic levels. My suggestion is that SC should limit their roster level to around 85 and thereby spread their NIL money over a smaller roster level to make us better able to compete for talent. Thoughts?

Interesting point, an nfl roster is what 56 players? USC is playing catch-up with the whole NIL thing. We tried, as usual, to go the cheap route and Oregon ate our lunch. I think we need to start acting like the big boys we are and jump into the deep end of the pool. We chose to spend donor money on renovations instead of directing donors to HoV.
If Oregon is really spending $40mill on 105 players that’s like $380k per player. Wow. It seems clear to me that we are going to have to spend. We have a very expensive coaching staff, our DC is likely the highest paid in CFB. We need to give our staff the best players.
