Dear IFL Coach,
If we had a trophy, we’d have to name it after him, and last year the metaphorical Hansen Trophy went back home to its namesake, Mr. Nick Hansen, who returned as the IFL’s champion for the second time, 9 years after he won the first one, in the very first season of the our league’s existence. Joining the elite ranks of our other two-times, Jack and TC, it feels a little different when its our forefather, and first-ballot IFL Hall of Famer, a man who is literally on the IFL Mount Rushmore. Every year, this invitation is a challenge to prevent a repeat, and this year I’m upping the ante - let’s make it another decade before Nick wins his third ring.
The 2024 draft order selection is underway, and if you didn’t catch it, here’s the draft lottery reveal video:
The buy-in is the same as last year’s, $60. With 16 owners, that makes the total prize pool $960. The 2024 payout structure will be as follows:

Godspeed men.
