What's this?

Cannonball, VI Pirate and a few others have inspired me re: NIL ….

I have made my position clear here . I hate it and don’t think it is sustainable. That said, and I have no idea if I will continue in future years , but I am donating to the collective this week .

300 hundred bucks . I will send it today .

If 999 more people do it, maybe buy an O tackle or two for next year .! Or maybe a power hitter for baseball !!!

Let’s see what happens. I think NIL is going to be a disaster , but I don’t want to be part of the problem . As much as a bitch about it here I want ECU to be able to find some players short term to get us at least back to competitive.
