Nah man. I was just the guy who sold to the guy who sold to the guy who sold to your dealer.

If the store is selling it for X dollars and he’s selling it for <X dollars, he’s selling it for cheaper. I own a business. If I sell something for the same price that I did 10 years ago but the other stores are all selling it for more, I’m losing out on profit. If I was the only store in town...

Imported Canadian whiskey was a huge seller during prohibition. You’re also making an assumption that moonshiners didn’t care about the quality of their product and were just mass producing a product that would make people go blind. I’d say the underground liquor market was about as well...

You just made my point. The illegal guy has to sell it for cheaper. It’s literally basic supply and demand economics. The stuff you learn the first day of a freshman macroeconomics class. At the absolute minimum there was a percentage of people who used to spend their money on illegal weed who...

Maybe you’re paying full price for black market weed but in California and Colorado those guys have to sell it for pennies because people there aren’t paying full price for a lesser product. You’d pay the same price for a stolen TV as you would from the store? Also, 50 year old white dudes are...

I would say that players here have an opportunity to do business with owners who aren’t particularly Miami fans though. For example, King singed a deal with that bar on the river. That’s not some Miami booster throwing a player a bone. It’s a promoter trying to use a local celebrity to promote...

You must have never sold weed or you wouldn’t think black market weed dealers aren’t losing out. The only way they can sell their product is by selling it significantly cheaper. In places like Florida where medical weed is still new and not a lot of people have prescriptions, it hasn’t hurt them...

Look at the coaches. The ones who have been excited about NIL possibilities are the one who know it will help them. The ones who have been against it and don’t talk about it are the ones who know it will hurt them. It’s like being a weed dealer and all of the sudden weed gets legalized in your...

This. People seem to be confused. They think that teams that have been spending money illegally on players have some type of unlimited budget for dropping bags and paying NIL deals. THE BAG SCHOOLS HAVE NOT BEEN HOLDING BACK. It’s not like they haven’t been completely tapping every resource for...

Agreed. The program went from a place where players came to win titles to a place where players killed 3 years before entering the draft. I get that we were trying to sell the program to kids who wanted to play professionally but if they had focused more on winning consistently, the draft picks...

You’re making it seem like players couldn’t transfer due to lack of playing time before the NIL existed. Once again, nobody at Miami transferred this year besides two grad transfers who went to G5 programs.

It’s a contract that pays you for your likeness. It’s not a contract that pays you for football like an NFL contract. You’re gonna hurt yourself reaching this hard. Besides, kids could have hit the portal already if they felt there was some kind of “favoritism”. None have besides two grad...
