NIL Impact on Recruiting
NIL affects recruiting in several ways:
- Initial Interest: Prospects with high NIL importance will show more interest in programs with strong NIL reputations.
- Visit Impact: NIL presentation during official visits can sway prospects who value brand-building opportunities.
- Closing Factor: In tight recruiting battles, NIL resources can be the deciding factor for NIL-conscious prospects.
