Jarvis Brownlee Holdout: Day 3

Someone could write a **** good book — ranging from inspiring to tragic — based on Brownlee's 8-word quote below.

 

[CaneSince4Ever]

Yeah, but I'm not talking about whether they got into trouble, I'm just talking about the open secret in Tallahassee that F$U football players could take whatever they wanted, including Adrian McPherson being allowed to take the Booster Club president's checkbook, and Warrick and Coles getting 99% discounts at Dillards.

Coles, McPherson, & Warrick's ultimate punishments were not any more than most first time offenders who plead out.

And McPherson wasn't "allowed" to take a checkbook, I believe He was charged with a felony and later plead out to a misdemeanor.

Now Winston, that's another story.

Kid must be a cancer in the locker room.

 

[TrumpyCane]

I guess a couple Nole players are saying this is BS.

Now FSU fans are turning on them too lol.

That's... Something else. But it's this starts a trend, could trigger a hasty demise or at least severe reigning in of NIL deals.

But you know, philosophically, if we're saying these kids are professionals and should be treated like stuff, and the pros have the right to hold out for more money.. Why shouldn't the college kids? Just pretty funny right now it's happening to FSU.

Captains Log day #3:


We are running low on fuel. Moral is low. Hopefully this $38 NIL check clears and I can get back to blowing my assignments on deep 1/3.


Cordially,
Jarvis

For one thing, it's not controlled by the college. For another, if I'm a coach, I'll play the third string walk on before the guy who holds out for a better NIL deal that I have zero control over. Have fun getting drafted from the bench or transfer. Then it becomes a question of who'll take a transfer that refuses to play absent an NIL deal to his liking.

Well I'm not saying it's a good career move, I could just see more kids doing it.

 

[Hurracanes]

In all seriousness, how long until a player or (more likely) multiple players go on social media 48 hours before kickoff with: "Not playing Saturday until my NIL money is right."

And what exactly will the coach/AD/boosters do at that point?

Legally, the school has nothing to do with the NIL deals, right? Sitting out only hurts the team, not the NIL. I don’t get it.

 

[FromDeeeeep]

Didnt Wiggins burn him in 2019 too with that bomb from Jarren Williams or was that another DB?

That was him.

Kid must be a cancer in the locker room.

How? His teammates are literally coming to his defense in those tweets.

 

[Hold My Beer]

The U should give Trumpy a NIL deal for the way he roasts the Noles and Gators.

That MF'er just sits at his computer and launches missiles towards Tally and G'ville

Not sure how many 18- to 22-year olds will get the distinction.

When these players got recruited out of high school, it was most likely the coaches who work for the university telling them where to go to get the hook up.

 

[Memnon]

Kids will still stupidly sign with FSU, that’s the funniest & the worst part about this.

You can literally show a kid exactly how bad it is & how things will go & they’ll still go head first into the dumpster fire.

 

[Billy D Williams]

I knew FSU would have problems because there is not enough local wealthy businessmen with NIL interests in the program. Businesses are only in Tally to offer NIL deals to legislators.

As long as NIL deals benefit Bama, UGA, TAMU & Texas, they ain’t going nowhere.

The only way NIL deals will ever be altered is when the powerhouses schools don’t gain from it...

Until then, nothing will change of it. NIL deals are based around the State laws not the NCAA, in most states there are no restrictions or prohibitions on NIL, so it won’t be a Nationwide phenomenon.

 

[KANE]

Nole posters on 247 are saying he should stop being lazy and start making/selling merchandise like other players lol.

Guess players are supposed to be selling tshirts out the back of their trunks and ****.

FSU Football Administrator.....
