Anyone know what’s up with SUfootball NIL

[Cusefan69]

Very interesting that it’s crickets now.

What is interesting is you coming to a board that is full of STHs, fans who if they can't buy seasons at least go to a few games and donors (greater and lessor) and telling us we need to do more. Perhaps it would be more prudent to find other ways to bring in "new fans and support " if that's your goal.

Read this thread. It’s all counterproductive. Let’s support Syracuse

I don’t think anyone here doesn’t support Syracuse. I think that’s why the thread got started

 

[AZOrange]

Joke. Disconnected message. Trying to control a narrative

We all must be idiots.

Edit. I mean the message you responded too btw. Not you.

Well I am an idiot sir!

 

[AZOrange]

That would be nice. I’m curious. Is he not being included because he’s not donating much to NIL? Last offseason, we heard we might have $7-8 million in player funds with rev share and NIL, “plus whatever Melo might throw in.” But then we never heard if he did, and the NIL pot didnt seem to increase. We need his help financially right now so we can attract the best coach possible.

With people like Melo it isn’t always about what he throws in but what he can help is get others to throw in

 

[SUfanNC]

Well I am an idiot sir!

Well I definitely am as well but I wasn't trying to ruin my exquisite persona here. Cats out I guess

So is this the recap?

People who have no administrative or executive role with the university may or may not be mad about a hire that was made. These people feel that writing check buys them the right to sway the decision in their favor, not necessarily what’s best for the university. They may or may not be throwing a tantrum and pulling their funding.

What did I leave out?

Just want to take this chance to say... I love all you orange loving psychos. Hoping cooler heads prevail and our rich benefactors band together to build something great. Thanks to the insiders for sharing what they have! Makes for a fun friday night after some brews.

An orange sunsetting of the previously functioning web site for the most potent Football NIL is...un-good.

I really hope this gets rectified. If it doesn't, Fran won't be as good of a head coach...

Fran and agent are already preparing contingency exit plans if true I would guess..You know what the boy scouts say...

 

[tep624]

If anyone and I mean anyone was pushing Heather Lyke as a candidate then they need to have their head examined. And I don’t give a flying #%*^ how much they donate. If that didn’t happen, good, but if it did it’s idiotic.

Is there not a way to put some real pressure and heat on the lallys via social media to push them to play ball? We aren’t a large community but if enough followed the same script to engage and call out this BS…

Maybe start with anyone here who has an X account loading up comments on the Lally foundation recent tweet demanding they stop trying to take over and put both major sports at risk and focus on working together to maximize the total investiment into NIL for both…

This isn't all on the Lally's as noted Syracuse itself has caused some issues with keeping certain people in the loop and others out of it and we have other factions that don't feel they were treated appropriately. Blair and the new chancellor need to get together with all involved and get the situation cleaned up yesterday.

Fair enough but there has to be a pressure point somewhere to lean on…. Or multiple for that matter…

At the end of the day, the most likely outcome is that this all gets worked out at 90% of fans have no idea anything happened. Might be good for everyone to take a step back

Step back where? Into the Lallys pool of golden coins?? No thank you sir!

 

[orangefog]

Sounds like what was being said during the AW and Lally drama. Neither side has small egos

One ego was big enough to push the other ego out. It’s too bad, we need all the egos we can get.

 

[2B20Again]

Someone should send this thread to Haynie and Brian Blair. First thing they will realize how immature this entire problem is. Secondly, they will realize how passionate we are about SU athletics.

lally was on the search committee. imo he shouldn't have been.

Agree 100% There needs to be defined lines between Employees, BOT and donors. Seems like there were no lines. Reeks of Tamany Hall for you old enough to remember. If not look it up. I am truly a fool believing that the real crooks were politicians, insurance companies and Big Pharma. Shows what I know. I’m tired way past my bed time. Truly hope it all pans out. Too much drama for me. I just want to enjoy good basketball and football from the team I’ve followed since my dad carried on his shoulders into Archibald in the late 50’s. I guess I watch General Hospital with my wife. Im out

 

[LpoolNative]

Wonder how much of this will blow over if hodgson gets hired

 

[kingtidge]

Ut oh someone must have disobeyed the Lally Family. The Lally’s deserve our utmost obedience if we want to live in Lallycuse.

I want to represent the lallypop guild...

Just not sure if I'm doosh enough.

 

[CbusCuse]

Whenever Lally comes up on the board, all i can envision is Buddy Garrity.

 

[NineOneSeven]

This school, man. Lmao.

 

[OttoinGrotto]

 

[NineOneSeven]

you can be mad at me. a lot of people do that.

I was really mad at you when you banned me from this board during the 2013 final four run

 

[rrlbees]

I was really made at you when you banned me from this board during the 2013 final four run

Weren’t you like 14 and acting like it? Lol.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Just to say it again for the __nth time. College athletics. What the heck happened?

“Athletes bring in so much money to the school we have to pay the players! But raise money from the community in a fund separate from the university that is managed by something somehow! But yes millionaires actually have the most money because they are millionaires, so we need them the most! And because they have the most they also want to do more stuff, so they need to be included in decisions for reasons. But how many should be? Should all? What’s the entry fee to sit at the table to choose the next su athletic dept employee? And if they aren’t they will be upset. And maybe they won’t donate as much. And maybe their hair falls out like Walter Sobchak’s ex wife’s Pomeranian. And if they don’t donate, the players won’t get paid. So then the players won’t play. So then we lose games. So we need more money. So please donate!”

Life is a circle and we are all just water.
