Wisconsin Alum Begs for NIL Involvement

On April 22nd, a prominent Wisconsin alum in sports media heavyweight is straight up begging

the Badgers Athletics Department to let him dive into.

Their NIL game.

He's offering to fundraise and get hands on, but he's fed up with the radio silence

he's been getting.

He just announced a call with Wisconsin set for this week, which feels like a real breakthrough

after months of trying to connect.

Still, he laid out how tough it's been to break through and actually contribute.

These fans are cringing at this, especially since the school's NIL set up has been

wobbly ever since name, image, and likeness deals kicked in a few.

Years back, it's hitting home because Wisconsin's got a huge alumni network that could be a

goal mine.

They do have solid donors like Ted Kowner keeping things steady, but under the old athletic

director, Chris McIntosh, outreach to folks like this, Alam fell short, no mega whales

like some other schools, but plenty of high profile grads ready to step up.

With this call on deck and more alums pushing to join in, Wisconsin's NIL operation might

finally tap into that deeper donor pool and level up for the long haul.
