    Caution-- long post ahead. The fed judge who issued the injunction on the one time transfer rule pretty much explained it, and the rationale would apply to the 5 yr rule too. Judge said the one time transfer rule was an unreasonable restraint on trade and an anti trust violation. The...

    I feel very good at about it for the simple reason the NCAA isn't going to want to take another L in federal court. It will just grant the waiver to make the problem go away. The circumstances are unique enough (basically only had two handoffs in his fifth game ) that the ncaa can find wiggle...

    He's was a phenomenonal HS QB in his own right. Taulia was on pace to shatter every passing record in Hawaii high school football history (most set by Tua or Mckenzie Milton). It was even more impressive when you consider that Tua was at St Louis HS in Honolulu, an elite private HS that...

    Nah, if he's eligible it will be Miami. I don't think his family would lie about him wanting to play closer to Tua.

    Perhaps he thinks Cristobal is still there. Easy mistake.

    Thats why Id wager he wouldn't cost UM a dime. He'd have lots of NIL options on his own (well, because of his brother). So that 2+ mil UM has allocated for the portal could get put into the same safety deposit box where Cristobal stashes his unspent timeouts.

    I don't think UM will have to figure out any NIL deals for Taulia. I'm sure there are plenty of businesses that would pay to have the Miami QB brothers in tv commercials.

    10+ win planning scenarios Plan A. Ward (would take all NIL available) Plan B. Salter (would take all NIL available) Plan C. Taulia and Evan Stewart (Taulia probably goes to UM for next to nothing, give the rest to Stewart to give Taulia a #1 WR)

    Go back one year. In 2022, prior to Gattis becoming Marylands OC, Maryland and K State had nearly identical RZ offenses (both 90% and top 20). Since that is your metric, does that mean Taulia was as valuable last year as Howard is this year?

    If you look at 2023 (Howards "breakout season"), Will Howard had nearly as many INTs as Taulia in 100 fewer passing attempts- so would you be crapping on Howard if UM had landed him?

    Brennan didn't play HS ball in Hawaii. I didn't move to Hawaii until 2009, so I missed his UH career. Can't really compare the two as I only watched UH play on tv a couple times (from what I recall, it was a fun offense to watch).

    I drove the Taulia bandwagon a few years back when he was transferring from Bama. Used to read about him all the time in the local paper in Hawaii, he was on pace to shatter every state passing record (basically all held by Milton or Tua). After Bama bought his family a new house closer to...

    Probably a better chance if he tries to sue the NCAA for the 5 year eligibility rule. The current fed court injunction against the NCAA that is now letting athletes transfer twice was based on the ruling that the one time transfer rule “unjustifiably restrains the ability of these college...
