This seems made up. Doesn't even make sense.

I'm so shocked that he's going to end up at USC

Shouldn’t admit this Sark lol. I thought Lane was the OC though?

We also lose JWhitt and maybe Neyor after this year, leaving Worthy as the only proven WR. Hall is a guy you take for the future more than for this year.

2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
As others have said, Hall took that stuff down weeks ago. 247 posters were freaking out at the time. Obviously he hasn't enrolled so of course he isn't on the roster. That one is even dumber. 5 days ago he posted this. That said, it does seem odd that he hasn't signed yet.

Maybe expect it sounds like Bama was on him well before he officially entered the portal too. I still suspect this is like Mario Williams or Caleb taking some token visits as tampering-defense / NIL leverage only to end up where we all knew they would, but I'd love to be proven wrong.

"Confirmed" is not a word that belongs on this board..

Theoretically Jones should be much better at RT than he was two years ago. Development and all. Hopefully there really is a new emphasis on strength in the S&C program that helps Majors. We shall see if that was bs or not.

Who is this guy? But yeah, gets hired and suddenly Fong is firing off ATM CBs so sure does look like his source.

That's not the shoe wall he's talking about. This one is in the bball practice pavilion. There's a fancier one in the SEZ. I've seen it in some social media pics.

That guy posted SEZ interior pics before anything was public. Seems to legitimately be one of the laundry guys there.

Speaking of WRs, has Agiye Hall signed yet? Don't remember seeing it. What's up with that if not.

Imo the one kinda telling comment from all those interviews. Bet he'd be committed here if we hadn't totally shat the bed last season.

Yeah seems like a pretty stupid huge loophole if so. Idk how that works- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
It's hairsplitting in that example although still technically different. And it does have a practical difference because the Pancake Factory example requires you to pay EVERY OL $50k per year, not just the 5-stars. Big financial difference doing that versus giving the scrubs $0 and using that money elsewhere. And some examples aren't hairsplitting at all - ie Addison getting $3 million to go to USC or Evan Stewart however much to go to ATM. Those are cut and dry inducements.- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
Too much either/or in this thread. Seems to me that both of you are right to a certain degree: The completely legal stuff like HWH and Burnt Ends is awesome and very helpful to the program. At the same time, it's gonna take more than that to land the Addisons and Evan Stewarts of the world.- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
These reports are saying they’ll go after schools whose boosters/collectives offer deals before a kid signs with their school, including transfers. So yeah you can pay them but I think the distinction is that you can’t pay them specifically to come to your school, which is obviously what every school is doing- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
Honest question - how do you do it legally with big transfers like Mathis or Addison? Guys like that are clearly picking their school based on inducements from boosters/collectives. Side note - LOL at that Miami booster who basically tweeted out his inducement of that bball transfer. Whoops!- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
Something tells me her bosses would have problems accepting sanctions from the NCAA.- NIL Recruiting News Megathread

The NCAA can squawk all they want but all of this ultimately comes down to enforcement. Everyone in the sport knows ATM broke the current rules, yet nothing is done about it because the NCAA can't get hard evidence. How do these new guidelines change that? They don't. It was already illegal. Schools like ATM will still proceed the same way under the table and just wait to sign the official deal when the player enrolls. Agree with others that there needs to be some kind of salary cap but it still comes back to enforcement. The NFL is actually able to enforce their salary cap. Idk for sure but I'm pretty sure they have the ability to pull private records (ie Tom Brady's cell phone that he destroyed). If Jerry Jones tried to pay someone an extra million under the table, it would likely end up in disaster for him. In college, there are too many boosters, uncles, trainers, etc willing to find under the table avenues of paying extra money, and no one has the power/ability to dig into private records to get evidence. Even if there's a salary cap, people will just cheat to surpass it. So yeah, the only way this ever changes is if the schools grant the governing body, whether the NCAA or a breakaway, a lot more powers for enforcement. - NIL Recruiting News Megathread
