crooting is totally different in portal era. Any min a kid can dip out - nil, playing time, culture fit, buying deion's BS, etc. Developing kids for 3-4 years is a thing of the past. It's all about who can contribute now and how much do they cost (some exceptions of course)

Staff has been hyping up Wes since moment Mario got him to commit and stepped on campus but he's severly underwhelmed for 2 years now. No reason to believe the light cant come on now but LOL at anyone who thinks we shouldnt try to upgrade. Better to spend limited NIL money on a DT? Yeah sure...

Kiko is a stud, Wes has largely underwhelmed and then we have a bunch of high potential young kids who have proved nothing and you dont want a solid experienced p5 starting LB? Lol

This. Any top 100 kid outta HS like Wayne will cost big bucks. If he isn't clear starter material after year 1, he becomes a bad "investment". Unfortunate but you all wanted to pay players so welcome to the business world.

Lol pass. Wonder if USC cut his NIL back this year or if he can somehow command more from someone else whose desperate? Ridiculous what college football has become. Free agency with 1 year contracts for every player.

A swiss army knife type player adds new dimensions to our offense but sadly, i dont have much faith Dawson actually knows how to be creative enough to use him effectively (see the complete lack of usage of any speed players last year...) but lets hope Im wrong.

to my knowledge - recent court decision enabled unlimited transfers (as of now) but not set in stone and could change again. Wild times

This. With NIL, they all coulda got paid big FULLY GUARANTEED bucks to come back AND improve their draft stock (aside from maybe Lee or Cohen). Wish them the best but the decision seems like a naive immature one all around And if you're only going to last 2-4 years in the NFL (average is 3.3...

So tired of hiring "big name" entitled position coaches, majority who are overrated as F, think they deserve even more money and look to jump ship every year, and accomplish jack s*** like Addae. Hire a super hard worker who will coach and croot their *** off. If Guidry wants him, dude can coach...

Love the ol offseason greentree legends tradition. Poff Poff Pass about to light it up. Lets go

For simple reason of doing something different that DC's didnt gameplan for. Dawson became extremely predictable which kills you against any decent DC (see NC state for one). Had we pulled a louisville and suddenly did a bunch of TE over middle, RB screens, motion, etc. that no one saw coming...

Lol at NCAA hitting FSU for this when literally every big name school is guilty of this. what a joke.

For guys like Denis, Kirk, Sago who transferred in, can Mario even kick them out if he wanted to? Unless they graduate to grad transfer they would have to sit a year to transfer which really screws them. Not sure Mario wants to put kids in that position and create that reputation. Someone more...

$100K/year?

Not sure what Zo does but not impressed with overall portal evals. Dont need a Zo to tell you that Cohen, Lee, Mesidor, Kiko are going to be good, they were a given. Need Zo to find the underrated guys and very few of them have panned out to be anything special or even above average...

My wife LOL'd when i said we landed a D2 QB named Poffenbarger. O how far we have fallen. That said, hope this kid balls the F out and proves all of us (including myself) wrong. Also reading between the lines, sounds like we whiffed on Ward, saved $2M (some may go to Baby Tua) and now have...

Those are HS kids we've been recruiting for years who commit for 3-4 years. Not Portal kids with 1 year left before NFL or no football ever again. Try Again

"still in talks". Does that just mean Ward's are negotiating for even more? And will actually come if we hit a certain number? What else is there to talk about at this point...Or are the Wards just a total mess going back and forth?

Of course it is. What WR is going to commit to come here with no QB1

Stack talent. Need a nickel CB. Could prob land Jackson with no nil, no OV. Easy as they come. Spots may be an issue but theres still lots of dead weight on the team right now, did Mario learn nothing from Saban...?
