Great news about Nico, and obviously, the NIL deal played a role (probably a major role) in landing him.

What I want to know is what does the NIL opportunity mean for future big time recruits?

I'm sure that Nico committing and the NIL deal will open some eyes, but is it conceivable that other recruits are going to have a "where's mine" type of attitude regarding their recruitment to Tennessee or could we still sign a big time LB, DE, OL, etc. with showing them the money?

Obviously, there is a finite amount of money so if other big time recruits are looking for their deal too, how much money is available for a guy like Carnell Tate (1 example)?

Hypothetically, if there are several 5 star type players that are interested but also expect their NIL deal, how many could we afford to lure?

What does this mean for other nice but not necessarily 5 star recruits like some of the guys currently committed like Bussell, Davis, and Luttrell? Is there ANY NIL money for them?
