any money not spent on players needs to go directly into bitcoin to beat inflation for future players

Yes their NIL model is too over spend and outbid by using resources the NCAA hasn't checked yet or reported by the school


They say they have 20 million but are spending 25 to 30 million.

Watched a special on it the other day

We need real business people running our NIL
NU needs a woman to run NIL and then tell that woman "Just treat the portal like you do Target...you say you are going in for eggs and you come home with 3 pillows, 14 shirts and a piano"

The money clearly doesn't exist. Not in the spades Rhule tried to claim it was anyway.

I believe the money is likely out there.

But if it were your money, would you trust your investment - rather, gift - to Rhule? I'm guessing many bets are being hedged. And whatever assurances may have been made in the runup to the Minnesota debacle, it would be no surprise if those were conditional on a strong finish to the season.

or Rhule is being told, by the investors, to not to spend $2 million on a guy with absolutely zero college starts.

If Rhule did match Kentuckys offer and the kid sucked many on here would cream him over that decision too.

...maybe we should ask Dylan to come back. Why TF not. Anyone really think we're going to do better at this point? Really?

I think somebody sold old Matt some Portal Coupons. I was told the ND QB was here Sunday and they tried to lower their NIL offer. Again, I have no first hand knowledge of that, but given the current state of things in Lincoln it would not surprise me one bit.
