A call to action

Bless your heart but you dont understand how NIL works, the university can't just simply put more to NIL. Now they can get creative to increase NIL via deals like Playfly Sports which we did to add an additional 10 mil annually to NIL on top of the rev share. But the AD can't simply just shift revenue.

Imagine bitching the program isn't giving Rhule enough resources while at the same time Rhule has free reign over everything he needs & wants...

...while other sports actually win, at a higher level, with minimal funding.
Once again asking for Dannen to give Hoiberg all of Rhules assets at this time.
 
I’m just here to ask where I should go to read exactly what resources money wise Rhule is getting to buy players since OP knows it is not enough?
 
I don't know where to start with this. I have been frustrated for sometime over what I perceive to be an lack of commitment from the athletic department in maximizing NIL funds. I believe the funds are there and the athletic department is not committed to doing what is necessary to free them up. I gave up my season tickets and quit donating last year. It wasn't a lot of money but it was enough that I think people would agree I have the right to express my opinion. Anyway, after what I'm witnessing with the portal this year, I spent about 2 hours crafting an email that I sent to the athletic department that was critical of their efforts at raising NIL and their overall commitment to pushing the envelope with NIL. Of course, no response.

I then posted a thread on RSS that pointed out several statistics with the AD budget and provided email addresses for points of contacts at the AD to contact if they, like me, were frustrated with the perceived lack of commitment. The thread was taken down this morning on RSS. I actually DM'ed Garrett about my efforts PRIOR to the thread being taken down and asked him to share on here to see if there was an organized effort that could be made to get more transparency and make the AD answer some questions about why we can't spend $40 million on a roster. Thread gone. Its funny that it happened. I copied the contents of my post because I had a feeling that may happen. I'll post below. But feel free to let Sean have it on RSS if you can as to why my thread was taken down. All of these fuckers are in bed together. As a fan that sucks. I know many don't like Rhule but I think he is the one person trying to push these assclowns to work harder and get the program with the times and spend money. He needs help from the fanbase.
Spot on 100%. Rhule begging them to fire him.
 
Not sure I get all the hate. Sorry for posting it. I get it it’s a long. I used Grok to summarize my thoughts and to help give people an avenue to try to change what I perceive to be a problem. Based on posts and NU’s performance in the portal, not sure that I’m too far off. I have thick skin so carry away and take shots. I’m a fan and I care. I have put a lot of time and a decent amount of money into supporting Nebraska football. Instead of arguing for endless hours on a message board, I wanted to give others who are frustrated an idea on how to fix the problem.

I thought there were like minded people who cared and would be interested in trying to make a difference. Obviously, it wasn’t taken that way on here. I don’t agree that my idea is as crazy as is being insinuated on here. But I guess if you don’t know me personally, you may think I’m just some crazy guy typing away from a basement. Regardless, I won’t talk about it anymore on this forum. Sorry.
