Apparently there is a “big nil announcement” tomorrow at 6:40am on wsil 3. Leonard is supposed to be on to announce it.
Anything to report ?
With the announcement of the new collective, I’d like to hear from the AD where the money needs to be flowing. I know in an ideal world people would donate to the athletic department AND the collective, but for some that may not be an option. We still need facility upgrades, but we also need to win. My gut says NIL first and hopefully winning drives more donors to both.
Glad we are starting to get this information out there regardless!

I would say NIL is first. NIL gets players. Players win championships. Championships sell out the Banterra Center and also increase donations and sponsorships which increases money for all other things.
But it starts with winning, and NIL is the best place to start for that right now.
Can someone tell me what the Special Admissions policy was? Please. Thanks.The family who owns Marion Pepsi is not very fond of SIU. The boneheaded move to implement the Special Admiissions policy that almost killed SIU is a factor. Actions have consequences. https://thenews.org/2013/09/08/56831/@tj-mcflys I really like the Pepsi idea 👍🏻
Great news. Sounds like it’s going to be much more organized than the previous efforts.
The website is already an improvement. I see you can specify which sport your donation goes to.
What does this mean for Saluki Football Alliance? I already have a recurring payment through them.
from what I understand it’s going away and all nil will go through the new alliance. But I’m not sure if your account will simply roll over to the new alliance or if you will have to set up a new one.Great news. Sounds like it’s going to be much more organized than the previous efforts.

Leonard mentions Saluki Insider on the NIL update. I was laughing out loud !! Our voices are being heard by HIS MOM !!! I love you Mrs. Leonard !!! xoxoxoxoxo
Leonard said that his promise to Nagy is that we will build the largest NIL Collective in the MVC . . .

Caught that. Ambitious goal as SIU doesn’t have the reputation over the years as a fundraising powerhouse.
