    I don't think people understand the dollars being thrown at these kids. It's ridiculous but it's the way it is now.

    I wouldn't be as skeptical of him getting that offer from Bama cause Saban may see the value in him being a dependable back up who could probably help with play calling. We are all very familiar with Freeze's offense. An immobile QB, who can't throw deep, can't run a little bit and doesn't get the ball out quickly is not what Freeze is know for.
    What? Did you read my post? I literally started the post with He, as in Will, as in the player we have been for the last several posts. And you call me dumb? Such reading comprehension failure

    Last time, Will was offered significantly more that you can comprehend or want to believe. More than we could match. This player that you want to cut so bad and can't fathom being worth more than $50,000 much less $100,000 was offered well over that. Do you understand now. I am discussing that one player who's name is Will Rogers!

    Thank God he is all dawg and not like you. He actually sees value in his team and this university.

    I don't care what you heard or that your momma's hairdresser''s niece lives across the street from Will's grandpa, Auburn is not offering him that much money, I'll assure of that. If you do truly believe that, I've got a bunch of stuff I need to sell you. Of all the QBs in college football, he'd be one of the worst fits for a Hugh Freeze offense.

    Your assurance is worthless. Choose to believe what you want. Better yet up your donations to BI, because unlike you I'm getting real world numbers not fantasy.

    Oh I believe this. I'm concerned that we might not be committed enough to sustain a collective strong enough to compete, especially if we experience down seasons. My $600/year will need a lot of replication. We need a few multi-million dollar contributors.

    I really wish MSU would decrease our season ticket holder donation to the Bulldog Club in half and encourage fans to donate it instead to the Bulldog Initiative.

    For me personally it's getting to the point where I may just StubHub my MSU football tickets and use what I was donating to the Bulldog Club to the Bulldog Initiative where I feel it will be more productive for MSU.

    We need to get some large corporations involved- as I'm sure that is what Charlie is already doing. It's unrealistic to expect fans only to support NIL although we can make a huge difference and we should donate what we can.

    This is the correct answer. Business pocketbooks are always deeper than personal pocketbooks

    I wish posters wouldn't post about our players leaving or shopping around and posting it like it's fact when it is a just an unconfirmed rumor floating around on the message boards and then some posters go crazy and post stupid and sometimes hateful stuff about our players on message boards and other social media outlets. Some on message boards need to find other interests than trying to interpret what one of our players means by some action or post he made on social media too. Pretty pathetic in my opinion but I guess it is what is now.

    I think we have to look at something. BUT, we still have to pay to operate. Women's sports all lose money. A shit ton. Heck, we lost boat loads when we're were GOOD at women's basketball. Then throw in track tennis etc. have to have em. Have to try to win as best we can. Have to pay for em. Its tough world. Make that a tough league.

The individual just has to love our institution, as you do, to pay. And as I said many are. Just need more. And I'm not the guy to tell someone how to spend their money.

    Yeah. That's the catch.

    My hope is we buy better players with NIL and that hopefully leads to more success which leads to more people donating.

    Sounds good on paper anyway.
