The first line is obviously tongue in cheek lol obviously video games are video games and not real life. But the point remains that there are many different factors that go into a kid deciding where to go to school and those factors are weighed differently for every kid. Is there anything you disagree with there or did you stop reading after missing the joke in the first sentence?

Just memnon already covered this, NIL NIL NIL. He isn’t media he’s memnon. I agree with what he said about conference prestige being absolute bs

@Memnon literally posted receipts about this conference bs narrative excuse but people don’t like to be wrong. Just say you wrong and that’s it. The highest bidder wins man it’s that simple. Like if I am wrong I say I am wrong. What’s up with the egos man no one is going to care that anyone is wrong here it happens we all get things wrong.

The money is tablestakes - if you’re not in the same range you’re not getting the kid 99.9999% of the time.

I don’t think anyone is saying a kid is taking a $1M discount to play in the SEC. But I’d be shocked if there aren’t people willing to take 5% less (eg $475k vs $500k) to play at a better program, with a better coach, against better competition, closer to home, a better city, a better play style fit, a coach that shows they want them more, etc… it’s simplistic to think it’s ONLY about money.

More importantly, it's not just a $25K differential. It's when kids DON'T EVEN CONSIDER teams because they aren't SEC or Big 10.

Good lord, we all know Miami is a Top 5 NIL program. And yet we see kids with an all-SEC Top 5. What, those 5 were the top NIL bids? Give me a break, a kid like that simply wants to play in the SEC, regardless of whether Miami can offer more money.

These people who are acting like conference affiliation and "the best want to play with the best" are just made-up myths...it's wild. It's weird.

It may not be every kid, but some of these kids never even consider an ACC team or a Big 12 team, no matter how much NIL might be offered.

Acc has only finished top 5 recruiting 3 times since 2016. Clemson 2 times and Miami 1. Some of y’all can keep trying to deny it but the sec has been pushed all these kids life. Now they are pushing the power 2. Even the nfl draft promotes for them

NFL Draft was sickening this year.
 
I'm in discussions with Musk and Bezos right now to back me as Head Corch of a Sun Belt Team.

Natty in 3 years, maybe 2, if get serious.

You ain't seen TUFF N FYZICAL until you've seen EmpiricalBall.

There will be zero roster a slots for feminine punters or receivers.

Don't ask me for tix later.

Perry-Wright, Anthony Jones, and one of the 5star DTs is who I'd be going ALL-OUT for to finish this class.... well and one top Safety too. Those would be the only 4 flips I'd really give a **** about tbh.

**** getting Russell+Cooper. Get that other WR Paris and the IMG RB, and literally put the difference in NIL towards increasing those 4 players' NIL offers.

Need at least 1 more DE and prefer 2. DT, I’m good with 4-5 and seeing who develops.

I hope you're right but I thought we were out of it for most of those guys.

Yeah, we will see by the end of the year. Hopefully USC, LSU, and Texas just keep collapsing. Though Texas probably has the money regardless. USC will be interesting. Past few years they built good classes before it kinda fell apart on them. And right now they have a great class with a lot of players I'd like to flip - like we did Lowe last year....
