Lol; bro I just sit back & read while trying not to laugh. U r so spot on.
I can guarandamnwelltee bet that more ppl know who Devonta Smith is vs. Brevin Jordan. I’m going to bet my bottom dollar that more ppl know who Trevor Lawrence & Justin Fields r than D’Eriq King. Ppl r seeing “oh, but we’re in Miami, this should help.” First of all, Miami, per the Nielsen support, is the 16th largest market in the nation. Not even top 10. Second, if we’re basing this off of “market” then kids would flock to Illinois since Chicago is the third largest market; or kids will go to GA Tech, since Atlanta is the 10th largest market. How about D King foolishly left the 8th largest market in Houston to come to Miami. Lol.
Bruh, like u said, the NLI has chit to do w market. It’s r YOU marketable. U become marketable when u r WINNING or u r putting up other world #’s that’s going to get u drafted highly. But primarily it’s WINNING. U show me a fan who stands in line to wait for a JAG autograph, or rocking a JAG’s jersey. And for some posters saying how strong our brand is; BRUUUUUH, most of us who didn’t go to Miami that r fans r in our mid 30’s+; WE WERE WINNING THEN! Lol. Now we’re stuck in love. No different than Bama fans popping up all over the country.
