But if I "donate" to a cause, it sure as hell isn't going to be to an NIL foundation. It really is crazy to me the amount of money that some people give to freaking sports at this level. But hey! I'm glad they are because I'm not going to! 2 7 Quote Link to comment
Micheal Posted December 19, 2023 Share Posted December 19, 2023 I wonder how much money goes towards staff salaries at the 1890 Initiative. 1 Quote Link to comment

Red Five Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I guess PJ and other MN admin are using 1890/Nebraska as an example when talking to donors of what the Gophers need to be. He is emphasizing that they are not going to be able to compete with peer schools like Nebraska due to the amount of money we are spending not only on our top players, but also on the middle and bottom of the roster. He has specifically mentioned the NIL scholarships packages that we are giving out to walkons with other FBS/FCS offers as something that Minny needs to be doing to get the kids that go to the Dakota schools.
