Todd Anson claims alumni NIL endowment was rejected by Warde
Todd Anson is an alumnus who was very instrumental in getting Jim to come home to Michigan in 2015. He tweeted that he was working to create a big NIL endowment but it was rejected by Warde. Tweet is quoted below. Perhaps a source of friction between Jim and Warde? I worked ALL ‘22 on a large, 501c3 nonprofit NIL platform, The Winningest Team (named by Jim) to “unlock the sleeping giant of UM.” Planned to create a funded endowment to support NIL. Warde shot it down. Would NOT support our donors sharing their support with our players.
