It is hard for the WAC to build on the previous season's success when players keep flooding the transfer after each season. The WAC needs to keep players the conference like Darrion Trammell and Fardaws Aimaq each year.

Are these transfers out, transfers in, or both?

Most WAC schools can't compete with other HM and MM when NIL money is being used to recruit these guys away from their current schools.

Correct! GCU just does not have the tradition yet which hurts us. However, we will get there. GCU has a fantastic financial model, strong leadership that supports athletics and is located in the heart of a major city. Lots of upside.

There has been chatter that Adien Igiehon is making $70k on NIL. If that is anywhere close to being true I wonder what Nuna and is bringing in with NIL... NIL is being used as a recruiting tool. For example Washington State promised their new QB 500K, housing, a new car every 6 months, and travel allowance for him to visit family back home or to have them come to Pullman. Drew Timme is being paid north of 500k to rep a Spokane casino as well. The new wrinkle that is NIL for college sports is going to shake things up dramatically.
