I have news for you guys. You can never get rid of “tampering.”

Players are tampered with in professional leagues all the time. You can’t completely eliminate it.

DWade tempered to get LeBron.

You reduce it by collectively bargaining with the players but the schools don’t want to go there.

UM will just need to spend some money to make it happen. Some of the money will go to Mensah of course, but UM will also need to pay Duke 4 million. Its just a price tag and UM is willing to pay it.

No, UM will not have to pay Duke anything close to $4mm. UM may decide to throw Duke some money for a clean break, but zero chance it pays Duke anything close to that.

What 3 Qb’s are you bumping from this list?

Kelly
Kosar
Vinny
Walsh
Gino
Dorsey
Ward

Let’s see how he does on Monday night before we start thinking about giving him any kind of GOAT status. Even with a W on Monday, he’s top 10. No way he cracks the top 5.

My understanding of the House settlement is that any buyouts of RevShare contracts are supposed to count towards the yearly cap. So if we gave Mensah the Ty Simpson offer ($6.5m) + $4m to Duke it's supposed to count for ~$10m against the 2026 cap (which I believe is $21.3m), which is a lot for a single player.

IMO, the cap is a fantasy right now, since there isn't a valid participation agreement signed by all the P4 schools. The CSC keeps releasing memos about "enforcement" but I don't see how they plan to police cap violations when there isn't a valid agreement empowering them to do so.

Schools are likely violating the cap either directly or indirectly by promising 3rd party NIL deals before they are cleared by NIL GO. We should too until the participation agreement is signed by everyone. I doubt this system lasts past the first time the CSC decides to penalize a school for violations and the school laughs at them.

I suppose Oregon didn’t make any calls to Raiola before the portal opened when they thought Moore was leaving. And Texas Tech never contacted Sorsby. They just happened to agree to a deal 5 min after the portal opened. Miami does it and it’s going to destroy cfb. Looks like order has been restored to the universe.
 
I was told they were working to get something done yesterday, but my assumption was Fifita or Bailey.

Mensah is legit. I'd definitely take Mensah over Leavitt (for several reasons), and though I see the upside with Sorsby, Mensah is a more polished QB ready to play now.

My Bailey love runs deep, but even I can admit Mensa a more sure thing for next year.

Raiola wasn't a take for Miami (at least before the pressure of the deadline came about). Dawson isn't in love with Bailey like I am.

Mario is a gambler. Three years in a row coming through in the end. Might be back here next year again, but I'll have faith again.
