It is great for all of them. All levels are able to get sponsors and all sports are able to get sponsors.

When we see golf team and women's field hockey players bringing in 7-figure deals, I'll be happy to agree with this.

Till then, though, this is just a case of the rich getting richer. My alma mater is in SE Ohio. I can promise you that we aren't going to be able to recruit any better because the local Ford dealer offers the star player a couple grand to do an ad. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if that local dealer doesn't try to get a Buckeye in the ad and convince Columbusfolk to venture down US 33 to find their new car.

The big schools will get the big deals. They'll keep getting the big players and the players who are drawn to making the quick buck. The lesser schools will have to fight and scrape all the more to try to keep up, and their job is likely harder today than it was two years ago, even.
