LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Louisville punter Brady Hodges said he opted out of the Sun Bowl this week because the Cardinals' NIL collective did not pay money promised to him in September. Hodges posted on social media during Tuesday's game against Washington in El Paso, Texas, that he had not been with the team since Dec. 10. Collective president Dan Furman did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Hodges was Louisville's primary punter and holder for two seasons. Redshirt freshman Carter Schwartz took over those duties in the Cardinals' 35-34 Sun Bowl win.
