Also, Pitt's fans not supporting NIL still doesn't explain the 10-20 teams with worse fan support that are ahead of us.
Beyond that, I'm not pointing any fingers at myself. I'll just quit watching if we start to blow. I can flip a switch just like that; I've done it with other sports/interests/hobbies. It'd probably be better for my sanity anyway, as I'm not a huge fan for how the head coach is running this program at the moment. And I'm certainly not a fan of NIL culture. It actually upsets me that anyone would contribute to that and makes me lean toward not wanting to watch this stuff anyway. At least now I can trick myself into believing some of these guys are playing for each other, the city, etc. I don't really feel like watching a bunch of mercenaries play a game. At the end of the day, it's just a stupid game after all. It's all the other stuff (the pride, the pageantry, the fans, etc.) that make it something bigger. But when it's reduced to being about NIL and selfishness, it becomes its lowest form. That doesn't appeal to me at all.
