Adonai also talked about being able to buy his 2-year-old daughter nice Christmas and birthday gifts. What did he get Icylinn for Christmas?
"I got her a (play) kitchen. That's her favorite thing. I'll call her and she's like, I'm making carrots. Girl, you can't make carrots."
In an era where some want to knock NIL opportunities for college athletes, I found AD Mitchell’s answer on the topic enlightening.
“Players gave their blood, sweat and tears for free…Now, I’m able to take care of my daughter and pay for daycare every week.”
