Matt Campbell Drops Shocking ‘Top 20 Pay Cuts’ Bombshell on Iowa State Football Roster
It’s a different world out there for college football. The NIL has changed the landscape, with players going after where the money is. It’s made it harder for programs like the Iowa State football to keep up on the financial side of things, and that was very much apparent in what Cyclones head coach Matt Campbell said during the Big 12 Media Days on Tuesday
“Our Top 20 guys took a pay cut to come back to Iowa State,” Campbell shared, per Pete Thamel of ESPN.
With the Power Four revenue sharing in effect, the Cylones need $20 million to stay competitive, but it’s a price they seemingly couldn’t meet. As such, many of Iowa State football players have decided to accept reduced shares, putting more priority on the success of the team than chasing much more lucrative offers somewhere else.
