The fact the collective has just 2,000 members is embarrassing and unacceptable. This fanbase always prides itself on the passion for the school but yet when it comes to spending we don't show up. Why? 🎧 https://t.co/2ibwztwewy 📺 https://t.co/51wTU91JM7
Catch-up time in a big way w NIL & revenue sharing at WSU, @WSU_Cougar_Pres says. $20 million per year is goal. #GoCougs

@zacyourback You are correct! Cantwell has a plan. She did not come to the poker table without chips when firing McCoy. Several large donations have come in this week with more to come. Getting vibes that this move has shaken the dust off the Cougar fanbase wanting leadership & a plan.

The media speculation bubble has been a cancer in college athletics, and we’re watching it pop. ESPN is staring down two straight years of steep linear declines. The SEC and CFP deals, the “cornerstone” Disney was banking on to reverse the slide, just ballooned costs and didn't
Carriage battles are common in media, but ABC/ESPN’s latest YouTube bout is another symptom of a bubble about to burst. Their SEC deal is untenable. Disney’s filings cite “contractual rate increases for the NBA and college sports” as a main driver of ESPN’s domestic income

@efrandsen Coug here. Nothing you’re saying is wrong, but it’s worth adding some perspective. While every other school has spent the last few years adapting to the new NIL reality, WSU and OSU have been in the fight of their lives just trying to find stable ground after the Pac-12 imploded.
