Two separate funds you can select either. 

We raised a total of $3000.  That's not enough to keep anyone anywhere.  Especially with their talent level.  Besides, as you should know, NIL is not paid to a player to keep them at a school. It's for their Name, Image and Likeness which was used here and on social media to market themselves, the site and the Bulls. 

 NIL is payment to a player to play for your school disguised as image and likeness.

Not for those that follow the NCAA direction AND the law established in the state of Florida.  Start a new thread if you'd like.

One other thing I'd add to this conversation is I have been reached out to by USF players interested in engaging with our site.  Of course there would be an exchange, but I was happy to see the proactive nature.

Proactive nature would be coming here to celebrate after beating down some AAC teams finally. I feel if we are going to pay players it should be result based. Donate a X amount of money per win, sack, and td. Speaking for myself am never going to directly pay players for playing for USF. Anyone else is welcome to. I am happy to contribute to stadium fund or x-amount per win pledge to stack on top of it.

I am pretty sure they were paid for their performance on field masked to follow their likeness and image .  Sure they may show up or market a product but they are 100% being paid to play at big time programs. The agents , sponsors, and boosters are using the NIL as a way to get money to the players hands to play for their team. Sure the players may have to post something, show up somewhere , sign something, market a product, but at the end of the day they are being for their on field football skills.

Not sure that is how NIL works. Name, image, likeness.  Don't see any Ws in there.

Notice the graphic I posted all the players that are earning at the top all of them are being paid by big boosters through the NIL. To deny that is delusional or just trying to skirt what the NIL really is. It essentially the defense people use when getting caught with an escort, they were paying for their time.
