Taking a ridiculous offer ($13M) from a school that is known to have a messed up NIL program that could likely not come thru = bad business. Doesn't mean he's a bad kid, but certainly not the smartest and/or has people around him giving him bad advice.

Maybe not a big name 5 star all world guy but there's plenty of really good/solid starting QB's at lower tier P5 schools and 4 star QB's who will compete and lose out on the starting spot at big name schools that will happily hit the transfer portal that we'll certainly have a good shot at. New...

The problem with NIL/Portal is any big name QB like Rashada aint sticking around if he isn't playing after more than 1 year. Cuz there's always another school with a bag and starting spot open. You cant really stack 4/5 star QB's any more. Sure there's an exception here and there but its not...

Terrible look to lose top QB commit to the Gators. Big L for Mario and you worry about recruiting implications with others But this is 2022, you can flip an entire roster and position room overnight in the portal. I didnt see Rashada wanting to sit for long, so I always figure 50/50 chance he...

100% better. Bag game at bama/uga was ruining CFB. NIL will make that better but will still be ~10 schools that dominate, all the mid size & smaller programs (most of ACC for example) have no chance still.

Not complaining as a UM fan. Ruiz is a godsend. Everyone on this board should download Lifewallet and show support. Just saying implications for CFB overall diminish the sport imo. that said, Go Canes and let's roll

Yeah not exactly. These kids have reps/lawyers too now (at least the high valued 4/5 star ones certainly will) who can negotiate guaranteed money, money upfront, cash payments every month (whether they play or not) etc. 1 school wont agree to those clauses cause they only want to offer money if...

agree, could care less if Ruiz wants to blow $10M per year. It's the implication on the game. Every year every talented kid jumping into the portal to see what other schools will offer and if its an attractive number, they jump. Straight up free agency in CFB. But unlike the Pro's where teams...

yes agree the $8M is a clickbait headline. But he is still reportedly getting $350/400K upfront. That's a huge sum of money. NO WAY with teams putting up $20-30M per year for NIL, a 5 star QB is getting zero or little upfront. 1 team since no money upfront? ok fine, I'll get it from the next...

Yes no doubt the $8M deal Tenn QB deal (Nico?) is heavily back-loaded and incentive based as I'm sure many of the NIL deals are but i remember reading somewhere on CIS (rumor cause no one knows the details) it was still a guaranteed (or maybe upfront) payment of $350-400K. No way Jaden is...

I get the feeling you are literally going to spend a couple hundred $K (or million+...) for.Jaden for essentially a 1 year commitment and/or spring try-out (after TVD leaves). And if Jake Garcia wins, Jaden hits the portal and money is basically wasted. Lol at what college football is about to...

Yes but supposedly $350K upfront. And then Im sure its somehow milestone based to earn the rest

This. Ruiz has a lot of money but there's still limits. And Rashada will prob hit the portal after year 1 if he's not starting. So you're throwing hundreds of thousands (maybe million+ per year?) to have him to compete for the job for 1 year. That's how crazy this now gets. Or are we better...
