To be honest, CougConnect makes the athletes earn it much more than other NIL's
Many different athletes have come onto Twitter Groups or Discord groups to do a AskMeAnything (AMA), where they interact with the subscribers and such.

A lot of athletes have written reports - specifically during spring practice CougConnect had at least 1 player, sometimes 2, writing a report about what happened that day and who was performing well, who had a good play, etc.

Your "irritation" with NIL means your fight is not with CougConnect, but the NCAA. (None of us like the free transfer as much as you like and millions of dollars in NIL being thrown around like candy situation) But, in the meantime, CougConnect is trying to create a way for us Non Millionaires to help with the NIL battle. While it may not be as big as the Royal Blue Collective, I think its a great tool that he has created to help athletes. Tre Alexander is one specifically that has really connected with CougConnect and leaned on them for different things. I know CougConnect was vital in getting some players last year from the transfer portal. He has helped multiple athletes qualify and get loans for cars that they were otherwise having to get part time jobs for.

CougConnect also does Sub-Exclusive events where you are able to go meet and talk with current BYU Athletes. While I know the "Click bait" is annoying (although thats basically how any newspaper or news article online works, they try to get you with the title and make you subscribe to read the content) to some here on cougarboard, its just another group trying to help BYU Athletics succeed.

I'd be curious what you think would be better methods to advertise? Seems like sharing on a BYU athletic focused message board would be a great place to advertise.
