The United Football League is experiencing financial woes that are serious enough that the football league has sent home players due to a lack of funds, according to an industry source with knowledge of the situation. The Hartford franchise informed players tonight that training camp wouldn't be starting due to the money problem. It's unclear yet if the season will be played. UFL commissioner Michael Huyghue has repeatedly said the season will be played. "While we certainly continue to look for other sources of financing . . . things are still moving forward and players are in camps," Huyghue told the Virginian-Pilot. However, the UFL has had several instances of unpaid bills, including players not being paid on time as well as other employees. At the very least, the UFL is having major problems that call into question both its short-term and long-term viability. Source: National Football Post
Sucks that the NFL couldn't fund it and use it as a farm system for those rookies that aren't yet ready for the pro level.
I live in VA and i sent my resume to the Destroyers, they got back to me saying they didnt have any openings after i had just saw job postings for them. I guess i now see y lol
Damn I want to watch Jerrod Johnson develop. They still have 30 days for the NFL to decide if there gonna help or not, just chump change for the NFL.
