Simply stating they are working to set up a NIL platform is the same as me saying I’m starting a charity for cancer research…sounds cool, means nothing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to create name, image and likeness opportunities for Indiana University athletes and be able to pool resources from businesses, boosters and all fans, the Hoosier Hysterics NIL Collective has been created. If there is a business, booster or just any fan who wants to contribute to NIL in general but doesn’t need a reciprocal relationship, the business or booster can contribute to the Collective, then the Collective will pool the money together to create significant NIL deals, and an athlete or athletes in turn promote Hoosier Hysterics. That could be social media posts, appearances, etc. https://247sports.com/college/indiana/Article/New-NIL-initiative-The-Hoosier-Hysterics-NIL-Collective-169529715/ So, this sounds like a way to pay players to appear on their podcast, using other peoples money. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also pay for themselves to travel places and bring family. They are losers and need to be stopped. It’s embarrassing with the way they act and the crap they pull. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure they are IU fans but this isn’t some philanthropic quest to attract and reward IU athletes. It’s annoying at best, and exploitative at its core. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some fans but hopefully any videos like that can be avoided. The HH's are back in California so they shouldn't be around any recruits in person for a while. Cali. I was guessing grown affluenza kids from the east coast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bustout Posted October 21, 2021 Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 I get the impression that social media debacle rubbed Fears camp the wrong way. Also, word from Illini fans is IU was big time negative recruiting against Illannoy on visit and that also didn’t sit well with them (particularly his father). Could be complete BS - I don’t think Matta has anything good to say about Illinois (and Illinois would feel same). Just what I’ve heard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 With Cupp and with us going after Little hard, it might have just been a tight fit in his mind. Very good player but we can't get everyone. I would like to see us get into Illinois sooner rather than later, though. I know we are trying. Fears and Freeman, two kids I liked alot. I like the approach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IU Scott Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Back in the summer it appeared he would be the next commitment. Everything changed when those idiots on Hoosier Hysterics got in the way 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it didn't help...who knows...but there are TONS of other factors effecting these choices. I highly doubt a couple over-zealous fans scared this family away. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 Imagine you are a player. Do you honestly think you are going to make the decision based on a couple of dudes with a podcast? That theory doesn't hold any water. I doubt any player worth having is that delicate. 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
