Eli's a Montana guy, as is his family

I don’t know, man. I mean I hope he stays and I have zero inside information, but the last 3-4 weeks have been a whirlwind of shitty occurrences:

1) Teams are throwing BAGS of money at him
2) His position coach leaves
3) His brother drops out of college and goes home
4) His head coach retires
5) He starts following Iowa state and Indiana coaches

I’m not saying he’s leaving, but man…at this point it’d be a miracle if he’s wearing Maroon and Silver in August.
 
I don't always agree with mthoops but I do here. I really don't think his brother leaving is a reason he would leave. college position coaches come and go all the time (granted Green was here a long time) head coach change really will be seamless with Kennedy as Eli is familiar with him and his personality. Trust me he is making some bank here as well. I think he is here for the long haul. unfinished business.

Guys his mom literally tweeted last night that he’s still all Griz!

That means little to nothing. She’s not making the decision. There’s a real possibility she hasn’t even talked about it with him. Deleting the post, removing grizfb, and following FBS coaches could all be innocent sure, but it doesn’t give me a ton of a confidence. I would be paying attention to HIS actions, not his moms.

You are wrong! No Offense!

And that’s great. Given the number of people echoing this I’m inclined to believe it. I’m just lost as to why he’d suddenly (1)- delete his return announcement post, and (2)- follow just about every relevant IU football coach?

I can't and I won't speak for Eli or the Gillman family, but I know Eli and his family are happy at UM and people just have to trust this! Curious, do you donate to Eli's NIL? Be great if everyone who comments about him would do this?

Myself and my family contribute to the general NIL fund. Maybe missing something here, but haven’t found a way to channel funds towards particular sports and/or athletes. Would be great to see a little more public marketing and education on the Griz NIL. I know Bozeman does a lot in that regard.

I would pay more attention to his Instagram than his Twitter. He’s much more active there.

You obviously don’t know Gillman or his family. Very close.

I know for a fact, at this time, Eli is staying with Montana! Maybe if some of you posters that don't contribute to his NIL and who want to comment about him should contribute to his NIL?

What's the best way to do that? Pretend like you're explaining to an idiot who has no idea how to contribute to someone's NIL. That's definitely not me though. Asking for a friend.
