[Agreement Reached] Miami Emerges As Favorite For Duke Transfer QB Darian Mensah/Plus hidden menu items at Publix, Greatest Wrestlers debate

Basically he thinks that Duke’s argument for damages is clear and that the damages = the $4mm paid to Mensah. But since the contract outlines the damages precisely, it weakens the argument for the TRO since you need to prove that “there was irreparable harm for which there is no adequate remedy at law”. Since the contract says that the cost of breaking the contract is $4mm, that shows there is a way remedy this by paying $4mm.

So my read of his opinion (not mine since I haven’t read the contract) is that the TRO preventing Mensah from enrolling is weak and should be arguable but that Miami / Mensah would owe $4mm to Duke

Yep. Id add to your summary that whet he says "Duk wins and it's not close" he means they'll win the argument that Mensah breached the contract, but the remedy will be Duke gets paid $4M. Fair?

Should be $2M since Mensah fulfilled half of the contract. But who's quibbling.

I believe it was 4 mil per year. So four left over.

If I recall correctly when he transferred the reports were that it was 8 million

They said he didn't get 4 and it was very incentive based. So it's way less

the reddit /ACC is a collection of the biggest pansies from Wake, Duke, UNC, UVA, et al circle jerking each other about how great "coastal chaos" is and dreaming of all winning the ACC as if that is even remotely cool in big boy football.

I refuse to go there now, but I imagine they are all saying how mean and unfair Miami is for doing this to the great and powerful Blue Devils.

Bro Reddit is entirely low testosterone phaggots.

There is no transfer portal.

There's only being enrolled at a school.

He can leave one place and enroll at the next.

This sounds like exactly what will happen.

Apparently the current judge from which they are moving away from to a different judge is a Duke Basketball season ticket holder?

 

[jifarina]

If Duke had created some masterclass contract, there is likely a damages provision in it. Not sure the fine line being crossed re pay for play and employer/employee aspect that Duke is teetering with here.

The first judge was.

There is a provision. Which contradicts their TRO filing.

The contracts state it's the value of the NIL of 4M essentially.

There was a tweet from a guy that was well worded. Said duke should win. But their win will be monetary damages in the sum of 4M

 

[MiamiCanesFan77]

Can UM compensate Duke directly for that $4 million to facilitate getting this resolved?

 

[CanesAreAble]

So when is the absolute earliest that Mensah could join the team?

As of now after the hearing on Feb 2, if the judge issues an order at that time. If the judge takes it under advisement, could be longer.

He's trying to get that hearing moved up.

Why would you want to force a QB to stay with you that can throw an interception on every play. Get benched. And you are where you were to begin with.

Because these guys want to go to the nfl. So you can pout but you are ultimately hurting yourself.

 

[MiamiCanesFan77]

UM went without Beck participating in spring practice last year… of course he was still with the team though and could learn the offense.

Hopefully Mensah’s case will get resolved well before spring practice.

They included the tweet from the Barstool guy in their complaint

Tthe external timeline is a tweet from Liam Blutman, which Duke includes as an in-line exhibit rather than pleading as fact: At 2:07 PM—nearly two hours before Mensah called Manny Diaz—someone tweeted specific details of Miami's offer: Buyout of the Duke contractApproximately $10 million total (for what, IDK, but I'd assume for Miami)Country club housingAdidas campaign
