negatively impact AthDepts IMO. Then I was just noting that disparity in TV $ based on conference afiliations has way bigger "negative impact" on those Ath Depts in conferences not named SEC/Big 10, so fans shouldn't worry for AthDepts re NIL. If youre concerned about VT AthDept, then focus should be on getting better TV deals! Comment about VT fans posting negatively about NIL was just my wish that VT posters would embrace it because I think NIL is great. I suppose it is possible that if perception of VT fans is that fans are negative toward NIL, that it could cause a sponsor to not engage in an NIL relationship with a VT athlete to avoid blowback, criticism, etc. Who knows? And I'm a Hokie so I only care about VT.
