The newly released texts, filed Monday by an attorney representing Nancy New’s nonprofit, show that Bryant, Favre, New, Davis and others worked together to channel at least $5 million of the state’s welfare funds to build a new volleyball stadium at University of Southern Mississippi, where Favre’s daughter played the sport. Favre received most of the credit for raising funds to construct the facility.

Text messages from August 3, 2017:

"If you were to pay me is there anyway the media can find out where it came from and how much?" -- Brett Favre

"No, we never have had that information publicized. I understand you being uneasy about that though. Let's see what happens on Monday with the conversation with some of the folks at Southern Miss. Maybe it will click with them. Hopefully" -- Nancy New

"OK thanks" -- Favre
