I'll get the conversation and plan started shortly.  We've got just under two weeks left for this.  That was by design so that players would be on campus for Fall Practice.  Coincidentally, saw this out there today:

Not that our 2-3K solves all problems, but we can make some difference.

Does a full athletic scholarship not pay for room/board?

I think we're supposed to be hearing something soon on @mgrothe8 doing some NIL work for the Bulls.

There is some chatter out there that it might include a third party.  I'm glad to see USF getting involved in this to a greater extent even if indirectly.  Let's see if that pans out.  It would be nice to be able to work together.

Otherwise, we'll simply need to reach out to the players we choose and do it ourselves.  

We have $750 to go on our goal if anyone wishes to join in and support our NIL drive for USF Football.

Just threw something in the pot. Not a lot, but the point is that all of our "not a lots" add up. Go Bulls!

I'm not big on the NIL stuff that came into the ncaa, but it's part of the game now.

The way I look at it . . . I donate a little is like seeing a player or few out and I buy them dinner or whatever. I drop $20-50 to show my appreciation. 

What's crazy is that buying a player a happy meal is probably still a violation.

TheBullsPen.com's Crowdfund Effort is a nice way for our little online community to show our appreciation.

Thank you for setting this up Brad and to all of those that have donated.

I can't get to smazza level, but with less than a week remaining . . .

Any $5 donation until Friday - I will match. If 20 people donate $5, I'll donate $100

We're at $2,360 . . . can we get to our Goal of $3,000 ?

You now owe $5 only $95 more to go, do I have to be unique people?

I put in an additional 5.86 because I am bad at following instructions and it would then trigger another donation from @Jim Johnson thus turning 1 donation into perhaps 3.

Promised myself I wouldn't go over the initial $100 but love to see other people spend their money. And had I known it was Smazza matching the first go round I probably would have put in another 100.
