Thought this was an interesting article on 247 ranking the schools by the amount of donations received. No surprise Oregon was #1 with Phil Knight. Ohio State outside the top 10 coming at #11 was surprising. There is a $230M gap between OSU (#11, $536M)  and Texas (#3, $766M). A little bit more change to throw towards a certain 5* OL? Of course, not all of these donations went towards athletics, but a good chunk did. Its a rough proxy to show the NIL gap OSU faces against certain schools.
