Kobe left that **** on the basketball court lol ..If Raiola only just played like Patrick Mahomes no one would find him weird.

Nuts on the table....this is the one for me.

Yeah, he's kind of strange with the Mahomes ****. Oh well, he's a kid and he looks up to one of the all-time greats. You know who else is a weirdo poser who worships someone else and does everything they do? Jayson Tatum. World Champion. Can you play, or can you not? IMO, this kid can really play and he'd thrive here with this line, weapons, and scheme.

And, I'm sure most people know this but I doubt everyone does...his grandpa played football at The University of Miami. Family ties here, for sure.

Is this kid a lead-pipe lock, sure thing, 100% certainty who wins the Heisman next year? Who the **** knows? Nothing is a sure thing. But I think this kid really fits what we do here very, very well. I'll take my chances on this and if I'm wrong, I'm wrong (Full disclosure, I thought we could do better than Mendoza last year at this time so the inside of my skull houses one (1) unpopped popcorn kernel, at best)

No thanks.

I haven't watched much Raiola, other than videos mocking him for his Mahomes act so I won't opine on his actual football abilities. The only thing I'll say, it seems like he lacks authenticity, and you wonder if a guy like that can be a leader. Like, do teammates think he's a joke or do they buy into him? I have no idea or insight, but that's what comes to mind for me when you see players that look a little phony.

Spot on. This is exactly what I’m saying no one knows how they will view him in that locker room..for all we know they could accept his Mahomes shtick but it’s a valid question ..but Dudes on here saying matter of factly the players don’t care ***** how tf you know?
 
What was his season ending injury? Will he be ready by spring? Really don’t want to not have someone ready for spring ball even though it worked out with Beck.

Raiola feels similar to Beck from last year. Off field questions, kind of a different type of leader, big pedigree, injury history, etc. I would want the staff to a deep dive on character and leadership with this kid before saying yes.

Broken fibula.
 
If Miami gets involved, would imagine they’ll do serious homework. Would be surprised if he ends up at Oregon. Odd fit for system & Lanning would probably be familiar with Raiola’s UGA recruitment.

Arm talent is undeniable. Haven’t followed him closely but seems like there’s some instability or guidance issues in his camp.

The Cosplay **** is definitely weird and his dad and uncle need to stay the fvck away and let the kid sink or swim on his own.

It would be fun though to revisit those tweets from Rhule if we did sign/fix him.
