Donta Simpson to the portal

[QuattroCane]

Better ways to handle it than announcing it the day after the biggest win for the program in the last 24 years. Showed good potential so its disapointing.

AKA **** move

Bye ****bird

 

[HurricanesR1]

NIL "dispute" when he's DT4 at best and had the best program victory in 20+ years?

GTFO

 

[90scane]

Did he dress? I thought I saw him in on 1-2 plays.

 

[305407cane]

Wasn’t he injured for last nights game ?

His management team is clearly trying to leverage the Miami media buzz from being in the CFP to get other teams to associate UM'S dline performance in the CFP to Simpson must also be talented but buried on the depth chart. So a G5 or mid major P4 team could make him their NIL dline bell cow.

Go Canes

He was "out" so Mario didn't actually lie on the report lol

 

[CanesLifer2]

Hmmm Moten goes down with an injury and he enters the portal? Something tells me his agent is leveraging an injury for money

That's some greedy, selfish bull**** if that's the case. I get the "business" side but as an old school minded, team-first guy, I hate this narcissistic trash.

 

[FreddyCane]

If he went to Dallas leave him there on the tarmac Lane Kiffin style. I have zero time for these dumb games.

Semper Canes!!!

I think I heard D$ say he didn’t make the trip.

 

[Fawk_U Haters]

If this is really an NIL dispute it’s a really selfish, doiche move and he’s getting bad advice. This reeks of the Nico situation and that didn’t work well for him either

 

[MedleyCane]

Let's slow down, and wait to hear what is really happening. This could simply be a negotiation tactic.

In the middle of a playoff-run?
Fck the kid and his handlers who put him up on this shenanigan.

 

[Elmer Leghorn]

Bummer, thought he had a bright future here

 

[MedleyCane]

I think I heard D$ say he didn’t make the trip.

He was apparently "hurt".
I suppose sprained NIL tendon.

 

[cookies]

Dumb career move

 

[MedleyCane]

I get that but he is being lead astray by bad guidance. I get he probably wants more money but now is not the time. He has a bad agent and is leaving a companionship team for what? Very shortsighted

I think this is only the beginning.
We see a very talented UM team.
Vulture agents like Rosenhaus and O'Dare plus their adjacent street handlers see UM football as a target-rich opportunity to make money from early and often.

Shades of Dionte Mullins announcing his transfer right after ND 2017

But this is the reality of college football now. I guess we’ll have to increase our offer or let him go

How do y'all even remember stuff like this??

 

[Steve44]

Strange.

If Moten can make $800k to $1 mill to come back here, and maybe play self into round 1 or 2, its a strong decision. He will make more money next season in college for sure.

 

[Cajuncane]

This is my only real issue. To let it get out now is simply a bad decision. It's not nearly as crazy as the nico situation but these kids & more importantly their FAMILY need to learn that sometimes the threat of having leverage is enough & relationships in business matter. Fafo is always their reality.

When a player enters the portal is he still accepted in the team area? Or is he outcasted immediately?
