Updated stipend amounts- will it affect recruiting ?

It might if all other things are equal. I thought Texas was offering significantly more?

East Carolina (ECU) will be offering $4,025 to all football, men's and women's basketball players. Athletes in other sports will get $2,025. It will be interesting to see what the other AAC schools will offer.

Coco, I thought the same thing. I thought Texas had stated that they were going to give $10k annually.

Well, it worked for the money guys behind fixing the 1919 World Series

Maybe they should give them each a million bucks. Then within 10 - 15 years someone else besides us could win an NC.

One would think that SC can offer their coach 500,000 dollars for the NC--they could be top dollar stipend for their players!!!
I thought I read earlier that the Vols would be offering 10,000 or was that supposed to be a joke?? Not funny!!
