Wanted to jump in on this gambling topic as NIL has been discussed. I’m as disappointed to hear some of these guys gambled on Iowa State games at whatever amount as anyone. And who knows if the little amount of NIL money we’ve shared is a part of that. And for that I feel horrible for all.
But NIL has done so many positive things for Cyclones that doesn’t make the news. Just this week, a football player’s family was struggling to pay the bills back home and were close to getting their power turned off. We were able to find this player an opportunity in the community and he sent the money back home to help his folks. That won’t make headlines, but the impact is real.
