I will still own
The only thing you own is the couch & end tables you bought for JP Pegues’ Auburn apartment…but, plot twist, you gave those away.

Did you get visitation rights?


A new live look of fubear just come across the wire, this is him watching Tyler Huff do his laundry at Jacksonville St.

You two stop it. I just want to know if we are paying NIL money. If I understand you two, you both think our basketball team is getting NIL money but no other sports.

That is NOT what FUBeAR said...

FUBeAR has HEARD/SEEN that the FU Hoops Team paid $300k of NIL money to Players, the bulk (relative to what the 14 other Players rec'd) of which went to a current Auburn Player, in the ~.500 2023-2024 Season that ended with a tied for 4th place, roughly 'middle-of-the-pack,' exit from the SoCon Hoops Tournament, after finishing only ahead of 4 other SoCon Teams in the regular season.

FUBeAR doesn't KNOW if that NIL payment to Hoops Players info is true or false.

FUBeAR has no idea what NIL is/isn't being paid to / earned by FU Student Athletes involved in other FU Sports...

...other than FU Football Player Evan DiMaggio is involved with the Alex's Lemonade Stand Childhood Cancer Charity that is working with Northwestern Mutual & FCS Nation Radio to raise funds for the charity. That effort seems to have some NIL component to it - so, perhaps the Players are paid some small % of the total donations for lending their name, image, and/or likeness to the fund-raising campaign. The total amount donated in DiMaggio's 'bucket' so far is $825.

Hey, what say we refrain from turning our guns on each other?
Furman fans do like both basketball AND football, right?
