Btw remember i was saying these coaches yall claim have this great track record of developing position, for example Corey Redmond and Brian Hartline.....yeah it was really all about just getting the highly talented players in the first place. Yes there has been underrated players in it, but its mad easy to develop someone who is bigger and faster than the competition and get them go first round, even with average production in college.

JT had no track record other than his own career, in terms of putting guys in the league, now he does and he can recruit against anyone. Mind you Mesidor was not some elite recruit and Bain was underrated.
 
I have no dog in this fight, but sometimes you just have to sit back and acknowledge you were wrong and said some dumb ****. I do it all the time.
This was my first post that apparently sent these dudes off lmao.

And here is the 2nd one

What was wrong?
I was saying we don't want it dragging on before a flip. Then within 2 days we flip Bryant.
It’s not those two posts. It’s the subsequent nonsensical replies that involve moving the goalposts, gaslighting and other passive aggressive commentary littered with lmao and lol every other sentence as you try to out-intellectualize some of the smarter posters on this forum.

Though I agree… I would point out that saying Bain was underrated is bit of a stretch. Should he have been a 5 star? Absolutely, but he was a top 100 overall composite player… that’s pretty good lol.
 
Yeah but kids dont have to sign NIL. The more the system continues, the more players are aware of these roadblocks. Also they may sign stuff but tell the schools they wont start collecting till such time to protect themselves. Atleast that's what I would advise kids to do. I will sign as long as contract only becomes enforceable after i start collecting would be the stance i take up.
U would hope so
But a lot of these kids probably need cash now
Esp with the way the country is going so I couldn’t blame them if they started taking in advance
The smart thing to do would be to get an advance from your nil agent but not sure that would
Be kosher
 
Jacobs can be part of the greatest D CFB has seen in 25 years a D with possibly 5-7 #1 draft choices.

MC losing the NC has made it a quest to make a team that will destroy every single team we play at least 3 levels deep in elite players that will be drafted even though there not starting.

We will be playing with a ferocity level that plays on Sundays.

How can any stud turn there nose up and turn away form the invitation to DOMINATE in all aspects of CFB with no remorse.
 
There’s no way this dude is happy with his commitment. We have all the hype and momentum right now. After yesterday, I’d be surprised if we don’t flip him. Hoping he’s a surprise visitor this week. If he is, it’s a wrap. Would be even sweeter with how they tried to **** with us right before our game.

Facts

And also seeing who will be what as well, evaluation cause some guys are just hype, and to see that and know that and avoid them even if they are a 5 star is an elite trait

Saban threw everything at Bain, that tells me Bain was a 6 star
 
Correct.

And here's something to think about. I was talking with a co-worker from Wisconsin who is a big booster and connected to other alums up there. He admitted to me that Wisconsin ****ed up their own program by shoving these 2-year and 3-year NIL deals down the throats of the recruits. And all it took was Xavier Lucas challenging the system to break the illusion that these players have "no choice" but to sign the most oppressive deals.

And I know that other attorneys on the board such as @AtlAtty and @Fluffhead and @RVACane have similar sentiments. People can CLAIM that these NIL deals and rev-share deals are "negotiated" fairly, but the reality is that there is such a tremendous disparity between the parties. Schools like Wisconsin are among "the most powerful universities in the country", while many of these recruits are from poor families that have never hired an attorney in their lives.

Right now, through avenues like legislation and lawsuits, schools are trying to impose a NEW restrictive and one-sided system to replace the OLD restrictive and one-sided system. "Sure, we'll give you some cash if we can still treat you like our property." It's just ridiculous.
100%. It’s a monopolistic system that traps players in it - at least what the ncaa wants to do is.

Nothing wrong with "I can guarantee you a late visit if you wish to somehow encourage me to reserve you a date for such visit. A contract, signed."

That's not NIL, it's just like you getting an appointment to have your Ferrari delivered and serviced on a specific date. Not always easy. You'll pay for that reservation.

There's ways. And then there's ways.

You hit a wall - go aound. Can't go around - go over. Can't go over - go under. If that fails, you use cutting compounds like C-4, or Semtex - and go through.

Within every problem - resides the solution. Just gotta find it.
 
The dominoes were already falling, this one is the one that continues the tidal wave of dominoes falling

Dawgs want to play with dawgs.

Alphas see this. Same thing Saban pulled off.

You could see and hear it in interviews all those years when recruits would talk.

Mario has that now.

Kirby was able to pull it off very early on at Georgia but it has worth off some recently.

The best want to play and compete with the best. They know they no longer have to go to the $EC to get paid under the table. Everything they want and need is at Miami.
