While Michigan boasts a strong athletics program and passionate fanbase, some analysts whisper they're behind the NIL eight-ball. Schools with oodles of wealthy alumni (think Texas A&M) might have a fundraising advantage. But hold on, didn't Michigan just make it to the National Championship? That kind of exposure is a goldmine for NIL deals!
The Verdict: We're in the Game, But the Jury's Still Out
Look, nailing down a definitive number for Michigan's NIL haul is tricky. However, with a strong athletics program, a fundraising collective, and a recent championship run, it's safe to say the Wolverines are contenders in the NIL game. Are they the top dog? That remains to be seen. But one thing's for sure: the future of college athletics is awash in NIL money, and Michigan has a seat at the table (and hopefully a very comfortable, endorsement-deal-funded chair).
