This was literally not said at all by Dean and it’s a huge jump to attempt to say that he was doing anything like that.

I’m all for piling onto shit reporting and shit information RSS provides. But I hardly consider a dude reporting what he was told by a player he interviewed him proclaiming anything.

"I also found it interesting talking about NIL with him. He said really only a few Texas players this year benefited from it, and Nebraska is the best he has seen in terms of all the opportunities for the athletes on campus. That is something he said he wants to talk about more tomorrow."

So this is what he said....it's complete bullshit.
Don't know why you have a problem with someone calling Dean out on it. Again, I know someone(who is a UNL alum and booster) who works in Atlanta with NIL stuff. She said Nebraska is way behind in NIL and is getting further behind. It's ridiculous that Dean keeps reporting that we're top 5. It's a straight up lie.

Did you miss the part where he said Casey told him this?

I don’t give a shit what anyone says to anyone. If you wanna be wrong about it you can go ahead. Sean did not allege we were better than Texas at NIL. He was relaying what was told to him by Casey Thompson. It’s not that hard.

I get what you're saying...but hes implying, whether he said it or not, that we're ahead of Texas in NIL...which is asinine. Each starting OL from Texas got 50k. We had 3 over 50 and 2 right at 50, correct? I just really don't understand the White Knighting for that imbecile Sean when he's clearly, on several occasions other than this, said that NU NIL is top 5. It's an utter lie and for the 99% of morons on rss that believe every word he says, it's harmful to the program. I know a bigger booster who went hunting with Nutsmasher thru the NIL deal, (awesome stories btw) but he said it was a clusterfuck to set up because of ABM. They wanted all tips to go thru them and all receipts of food gas etc. He wanted to give some other "donations" but by the time ABM got back to him he was so pissed he said fuck it. He knows of other boosters with the same problems. Yet we have dipshit Sean Callahan trying to tell us they're ahead of most other universities. He's a fucking liar and it pisses me off. Sorry if it offends you.

1000% Know of 2 Boosters who wanted to get involved with NIL and they had similar stories to yours. Couldn't stand dealing with Gerrod and felt like he was scamming them. They did not trust him. Also felt like they wanted to direct who got the money, as if the coaching staff was telling them who's wallet should be stuffed with Pesos. Said it was not a professional run operation at all. They got so frustrated that they just said Fuck It and put away their checkbooks.

The way our NIL is being run does not sound good, yet Dean is telling the Sheep that it is a Top 5 NIL Program, or at least saying it is doing great. That's why I am picking a Rock Fight with him on RSS and calling him out. Still haven't read my DM from him cuz I got too much work shit going on right now. I just want him to do his fucking job, do some reporting instead of Fluffing & Cheerleading. Journalistic Integrity is out the window and don't get me started on that band of misfits he calls Sports Writers.

To be fair the way this is all going NIL is pretty scammy lol. Made up businesses to pay players and stuff

Yup, just the NCAA's way of saying they can't control it or profit from it so lets get the IRS involved taxing it and make it legal. They felt like Gerrod was taking advantage of the players and not doing what was in their best interests. Just overall a bad and frustrating experience trying to deal with ABM. I don't like to hear that because it hurts our program. But meanwhile Dean is Whiteknighting to the Sheep that all is well so that is the general consensus.

Well, maybe Turd could've used this for a reason to fire Frost and not pay his buyout since he's directing players to a shitty NIL deals that support his buddies. I still find it hard for those boosters who are unsatisfied with ABM couldn't form their own company and have it ran more professionally. Maybe they can recreate something similar what they did on the HBO series "Baller's" (Yes I know it's Hollywood) but it could work.

It has been brought up. If I felt like living in Lincoln I might just do it. Hire some players that just graduated and rake in their friends. Bring in some Husker Legends to join the staff because you will need protection going up against Frost's friend and the TC Crowd. The program is not gonna get 100% behind it cuz they got Gerrod in their hip pocket.

That's a pretty good idea and this could be a way to bring legends like Suh or Lavonte David back into the fold vice the guys who are still living of their fame from the 90's. I guess it's safe to say that Turd is part of the TC for allowing this shit to happen.

I originally figured Turd was part of the TC but from what I was hearing he was doing his best to stand up to them on a bunch of stuff. Appears that even if he was a Plant by the TC he at least is trying to do what is best in terms of the university and not the people who have an agenda, whether that is profiting financially, protecting friends or gaining political power. I had my doubts about Turd but gotta say he has proven me wrong a bunch of times, love seeing him stand up for what is right for the University.
