I think he meant to say that NIL is going to cost a few select kids who get overhyped by the media for whatever reason but decide to come back anyways*
Well what’s his source? I’ve never seen an officially reported NIL salary figure. Do schools have accountants for these things? Can you do a FOIA request? I don’t understand how it works. I work at a university and there’s budget officers, business managers, etc etc. I don’t understand how these worlds fit together. I know money gets handed around but exact figures seems to imply an infrastructure. Whose full time job is this
Because it’s not the schools doing the deals, it’s the collectives. That’s the whole thing that makes this work, the separation. The numbers you hear are largely guesses. Agents will throw stuff out. Sloppy collectives leak a bit. Very few people see the actual contracts.
He’s good when healthy, but like famed poster billdozer said, he’s a big hit heat seeking missile. Seems to go out of his way to find and take the biggest hits imaginable
Apparently this is the board of our collective. I guess the CPA guy would handle the financial stuff? Maybe it’s less work than I’m thinking. But typically this role is a full time job where one gets paid well. Hard to imagine how it works
said the same thing about ward and how did that turn out? It's a supply and demand market and there is no supply. Miami has a glaring hole at QB so they are going out and buying one in an uncapped sport. How could that money be better spent?
The board likely meets weekly or monthly outside of maybe NSD/portal szn. There’s likely a lawyer or two below these guys doing the busy work. The CPA can probably handle most of the financial stuff. Then there’s a go between which is your GM/director of player personnel who is acutely aware of what both sides want/are capable of providing.
Surprised Kansas getting the punter from McNeese St isn't dominating the conversation. Carson Beck might be good and getting paid but this kid can punt with both legs. Opposing teams won't know what to do
yup. This is what Miami came up with Tamper and get beck when the other options didn't work out. Feel free to give a better option
I know thats supposed to be a dig but just imagine what Miami season would have been without all that tampering and money spent. If its going to get this bozo 10 wins again sign me up for it
yup. Other people spending money let me enjoy 10 wins and a shot at the playoff. Sign me the fuck up again. Could always spend a little less and go 2-10 or get beat 41-17.
Maybe they can get Gabby to write another article about how Miami doesn't recruit over their HS recruits. The moral superiority on this is so weird. Everyone is in the game. It's like saying I only do coke 5 days a week, but I don't have a problem LIKE THAT GUY.
Literally exactly what we already knew. Just like the Rashada situation in reverse. Miami's NIL pays back what Lucas owes that was already paid toward next season and everyone goes their separate ways. Wisconsin doesn't seem to want to do that. But I'm sure this is just a situation where the kid didn't know how to properly enter the portal...
unless he signed a revenue share deal with the school ( are those even official yet I thought it was supposed to start in summer?) does it even matter that he signed a NIL deal. Those aren't supposed to be tied the school itself so the school doesn't have any grounds to stand on on behalf of the collective. So taking it to court is just going to be another loss for the NCAA/schools versus players.
Says the fanbase that keeps making Pop tart bowl jokes after going 2-10. If you are taking shots at Miami after that embarassment of a season, my post is tame at best.
Yeah, this is a potential financial issue, not an eligibility issue. Schools still don’t classify the players as employees. They do not sign employment contracts. They are free to transfer and compete at other institutions per the NCAA rules. There may be financial consequences for doing so, but Wisconsin has no grounds for restricting that movement based on a deal signed with a collective.
It's peak petty which I get. They beat Miami out for him last year on NSD. He plays well and shows he was pretty significantly under-rated as a recruit, then Miami poaches him in the portal. If the roles were reversed, I'd be annoyed as a fan. But that's the damn game. Nobody is crying for Miami that Bama did the exact same thing with Horton.
And the schools have the power to change all of this. They can make the players employees. But they don’t want to do that.
but whats going to happen to them by doing it? Nothing. so why not do it just to be petty. People can say it will hurt with recruiting but outside of maybe sfl kid (which they don't get alot of anyway) most kids won't care as long as they get a nice NIL deal.
how dare you insinuate i'm a nole after my norvell HEADSHOT yesterday which the nole fanbase still hasn't recovered from
Nice pickup for them. I would’ve been fine if he wanted to be our TE3 instead of using a true freshman there.
I've never wanted him, but I sure as hell wouldn't want carson beck in a gus bus offense. Just thought that was one of the weirdest projections I've seen for any player.
I'm sure FSU has buyer's remorse on Castellanos like I have buyer's remorse on a gas station burrito - it cost four dollars and it's going to be an unpleasant shit to get rid of it but it's not going to ruin my year.
Same with Ole Miss - We had 14 starters just from last year's portal. Would have been a rough team to watch this season otherwise.
This is only if Beck loses the use of his right arm If he's fully limbed then norvell has no interest
