Rattler to charge $150/autograph

[Scottsdale.Sooner]

I have a program from when I was a kid, has Troy Aikman, Brian Bosworth, Spencer Tillman. Have it framed hanging in my gameroom. I heard that Rattler is giving everything he makes as a Sooner to charity. If so thats a smart move, would speak high about his character.

I think the sales of his tee shirts goes to charity. He has set up a trust and trade mark protection for his logo/NIL. I am told that he has set up a program that will provide financial aid for his teammates on an as needed basis. He attended a youth football camp in Phoenix from the time he was in the 6th grade. He has returned to this camp as a mentor since he was in high school. He was a major pledge to contribute to the cost of running the camp this year.

Just read this recently. My position is they are welcome to make the money. But, our grandkids will never know the excitement of meeting one of their favorite players (Quentin Griffin) in the elevator of the team hotel (Waco, TX) and get them to autograph the local sports page during the ride. I would assume his "agent" would not allow that. If he is going to donate the $150 per autograph to charity, I think I would prefer he give autographs to fans, especially young fans looking for the thrill of a lifetime, for free. Plenty of time and money for charity donations in his lifetime.
I won't dislike or disparage anyone for charging. Just missing the good old days (you know, 2019).

seems about right, Johnny Football was charging $50 for his.
