Subject: Words from a self-important, arrogant blowhard... Author: Purp 1 [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: Saturday, March 29, 04:25:33pm Author Host/IP: syn-074-070-140-050.res.spectrum.com/74.70.140.50 In reply to: Purp 1 's message, "I might also note...." on Saturday, March 29, 03:15:20pm This is what happens when you become a millionaire and look down on people who aren't on your financial level. Re: Niagara Fails to Qualify for MAAC Tourney Post by jhart » Sat Mar 08, 2025 8:45 pm I hear all the disappointment, yet I want to know if any of the commenters have money in the game. I doubt if more than a handful contribute real $ to NU athletics. Most are giving a 100 or two and think they can opine on our program. I and a few others give five figures every year and we don't make as much noise! If I'm wrong, please let me know. You can do so here or through my email privately. I'm paying a quarter to a half of a hockey players NIL if he stays for next year. I'm an Elite BB supporter and Elite Edge of hockey before any NIL. I'm on the NU NIL Collective Board and daily following where we go with legal decisions imminent. I do this for my love for NU! I'm retired for over ten years with no employment income. I just had to say something! Top [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

No you can't. If you don't have an investment in the NU programs, you don't have a voice unless you are under 30! That's my opinion! RESPONSE... Well, I guess my return is short-lived. I'm sure season ticket holder of over 30 years doesn't count. Attendance is dwindling every season, and student support is basically zero. I come back to discuss what I see and get told I shouldn't have an opinion. Who over there is actually promoting NU basketball? Can we get more than 900 people to a game? I also like how you state all the contributions you make to NU basketball. Thank you. If I could, I would. They have had 2 winnings seasons in the last 12 years. Someone might want to switch some stuff up over there. How many guys are coming back this year? Is the collective returning the same ZERO players as last year? [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Author: Purp 1 [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: Saturday, March 29, 04:52:32pm Author Host/IP: syn-074-070-140-050.res.spectrum.com/74.70.140.50 He's a whale. That's what they call a big spender at the casino. They treat them like luxury, give them all the bling, free dinners, like they are royalty. And what do they get in return? They get a person in love with themself who thinks his shit doesn't stink as he walks around looking down at others who don't have his money. This is the perfect marker for NU. Absolute perfection! Feed the guys enormous ego, make him think the school closes without him and make him feel as though he sits higher than anyone else. jhart is NU's whale. [ Post a Reply to This Message ]

Sure, he gives a few grand here or but there are far larger people who support the program to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars, who you don't know about because they don't shoot their mouths off. If he's funding NIL so well or so he claims, why did the three best hockey players we have enter the portal yesterday? Perhaps if Robert Wegman wasn't put off by some hypocritical priests years ago, NU's financial situation would be much different today.
