Ekeler Leaving for USC
- Thread starter Removed Spleen of Jordan
- Start date
Exactly and I agree however unless we Husker fans start donating to NIL I'm afraid the NIL we have is what we have. Rhule has even alluded to the past couple years of asking for more NIL donations from Husker Nation. Indiana has Mark and Oregon has Phil. Buffet is an alum of UNL but he's never going to donate money to sports and he's richer than both of those guys put together.
I cant believe our NIL collective hasn't done this yet......
Bumper stickers saying I Support the Huskers, and sell them for $50. You will quickly see them all over Nebraska with some vehicles having stickers that span the whole bumpers like an Ohio State helmet.
I'm sure a unique design that catches the eye can be found. Cost per sticker to manufacture, administrate and distribute? About a buck 2.98

I agree with you in concept. However, 50 quid/smackaroonies/benjamin's/chedda for a bumper sticker???? That seems a couple of light years past excessive.
Dear Football Gods, let the numbers I play for Powerball and Mega Millions hit and I'll make sure Nebraska has more money than anyone.
It's a status marker. It tells everyone who sees it that you support the Huskers with $50 of your hard earned dollars. Instead of having a Blackshirt flag attached to the outside of your window on gameday, everyone knows you are a True Supporter of the Huskers. The only issue is making sure the design is distinctive and trademarked, so it's not copied.
Or maybe a special edition state issued license plate that costs a extra 100 dollars with a cool Husker emblem and a saying like "MAKE ROOM FOR DADDY" on it, cuz a lot of folk don't want a bumper sticker on their car. Every year you renew your registration it costs an extra $20 if you have the MRFD plate, with funds going directly to UNL athletics. Let's get the hole state involved. Everyone will know immediately that you are an athletic supporter if you are sporting a MRFD plate on your sled.
1. I want nothing to do with daddy, nor will I make room.
2. So for those of us living outside of Nebraska, how can we buy this plate? Maybe if there was a decorative version? Place it inside the car, showing out the rear windshield, maybe?
3. More reasons...

Or just donate to the program. Do we really need a trinket to prove it?
Heck, y'all can send me the receipt of your donation and I'll make something for you. Magic marker OK? I'll even let you choose red or black ink.
I still think some sticker that signifies you contribute will get a lot more response than not. Maybe just an outline of the state with "NIL" inside it. Stick it on the front window or the garage door. How many people have Husker stuff marking their homes and cars?
How effective is our collective at getting a grass roots response for a call to arms, financially speaking?
I keep going back to Ben Franklin's thoughts on fundraising. 1) Ask people you know will give. 2) Ask people who might give. 3) Ask people who you believe won't give. You may be surprised.
Anyways, before throwing my idea away, what do you have as an idea?
As a starter option, perhaps we could raise NIL money here on BHF? I go get stickers made that says BHF-NIL. I send them to a mod who is willing to oversee and they get mailed out to BHF members who want to support the Huskers in a small way. Money raised would go to the NIL. I would purchase 50 out of my own pocket if there's interest.

Clearly Rhule doesn't like Ekeler's over the top enthusiasm taking up some/alot of space in his Husker Rhules world. Damn shame Rhule can't just sit back and enjoy the ride incorporating it into the program. #1 reason people leave a job has always been because of their boss.
Apparently Eks energy is a little too much for both Rhula and Holgerson. Whatever. Someone on that sideline needs to show some energy. I love Eks energy.
