    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    So now you are going to pout and make everything an extreme statement ("he sucks"). I'm not trying to diminish Wong. I'm just pointing out that his 2-year performance is nowhere near as rare as you originally made it out to be.

    Yes. Plus, they are SOOOOOOOO careful about not overpaying Portal guys who "aren't worth it"...keep up the good work, Gaytors...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    No I wasn't. I asked for an example of whether the poster has ever taken a job and then two weeks later demanded and received a raise based solely on a citation of Glassdoor data. I never "argued against the value proposition of GlassDoor", you logic-clown. I've used websites many times in...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    OK, fair enough. I've never criticized Wong for wanting/seeking more money, simply for the way in which he and/or his NIL agent are doing so PUBLICLY.

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    What an ignorant post. You are another overpaid airhead who can't stick to a topic, and you choose to make everything about yourself and your irrelevant personal experiences. Brag to us more about your bloated salary and then convince us that it is even in the same realm as what Wong's NIL...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    Yap, yap, yap, yap, yap. I'll just let you tell me about that one time that you accepted a job, and then 2 weeks into your employment you said "I just went on Glassdoor and now I want a lot more money". Again, I'm not citing a bunch of irrelevant non-comparisons just to try to play devil's...

    I agree. I'm trying very hard not to assume anything, but it's hard to envision a scenario that does not involve Wong at least signing off on this strategy. Guess we'll find out soon.

    Sure. And EVVVVERYTHING changed once employees started going to the press. Hilarious.

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    Agreed on the terms of the deal. But the public announcement of terms and negotiating positions creates a situation that the NCAA can attack as a textbook case of what is NOT allowed for NIL deals. The NIL agent can't just walk those words back. A public ultimatum of "pay me more or I...

    Wrong. "Reading a statute" and "reading a room" are two different things.

    Because Omier was smart enough and self-aware enough to NOT let himself or his contract be used for leverage.

    I used to root for Chris Lykes once too.

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    Look, Wong has had plenty of time to pull an Amarius Mims by calling all the websites to say "I didn't actually commit." I agree the NIL agent is dumb, but I think that Wong was OK with this approach. Or maybe it's early in the morning and I've missed all the retractions? Regardless of how we...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    Yeah, it's a rookie fvckin' "NIL agent" who thought, "I'll get Wong a basic agreement, then I'll represent a transfer, and then I'll go back and get Wong matching money, and this will be as easy as stealing candy from a baby." Yeah, didn't work out so well. I hope players and recruits are...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    You need to quit while you're ahead. The issue is not "renegotiation". The issue is renegotiating IN THE PRESS. If you want to get paid more at your job, you do NOT "go to the press". And I'll make this simple. I will eliminate Wong's DESIRE to renegotiate and focus solely on the METHOD...

    Wong trying to pull up on Ruiz

    Wellllllll....setting aside the fact that Miami just joined the ACC in 2005... I'm still going to play the game.... First, Shane Larkin was the ACC Player of the Year and First Team All-ACC in 2013. That may not be "two-time", but it's still a pretty significant accomplishment, considering...
