1. Since he has one year left, Hartman's best fit is a school that runs an offense like WF. That, in addition to probably wanting high visibility and a schedule ripe for success (ND should be no worse than 9-3 in '23), limits the schools that he might pick to maximize his pro possibilities.
2. The real amount of NIL money floating around is grossly exaggerated, fed by Narducci's wild-ass claim that Maye was offered $5M.
3. NIL money isn't a bottomless pit. Most of the NIL money appears to be being pushed to guys with far more years of eligibility. i.e., Caleb Williams with 3 years or Dante Moore with 4 years are "worth more" than a guy like Hartman who has one year. Overall, there are probably 10-15 programs (ND included) that have significant NIL money to throw around. Which of those schools are going to offer big $ to a one-year guy?
4. ND does have excellent NIL $ but they aren't used to using the "bagmen" that some of the more prominent programs are very used to using. Thus, ND is shier than, let's say Oregon, in "advertising"/throwing money at recruits.
