Lol so his conclusion is that the payments depend on how good the player is? Breaking news!- Texas Recruiting Notes 2023: Strippers, Monkeys, and 5-Stars
"Stability" is an interesting one with those 3 schools. Kirby obviously ain't going anywhere. Saban might retire. Sark is the least stable HC. BUT it's the reverse for OCs. Monken and BOB won't be around for more than a year or two, while Sark is the OC.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Guarantee you there are seeds already being planted in the minds of some of them, I'd be shocked if the whole lot make it to the '23 season wearing burnt orange. Of course same goes for nearly everyone aggy reeled in..not just one position group. At some point schools may start realizing they're better off waiting until after year 1 to offer big money to guys. Because if you get them out of high school, you have to re-up every single year to keep them (if they're good). If you poach them after their freshman year, they no longer have that free transfer which pretty much kills any leverage they have to re-up.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
But has he tweeted and deleted anything about it yet?- NIL Recruiting News Megathread
SIAP but good (long) article on NIL, including a Surly / Burnt Ends reference: https://www.si.com/college/2022/05/02/nil-name-image-likeness-experts-divided-over-boosters-laws-recruiting tldr: it's fucked- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
For sure. The token visits also give him more NIL negotiating leverage. If we matched then sure it could happen esp with Marion. But would we really match $2-3 mil? Seems highly doubtful. And don't forget USC has some good selling points too - Caleb Williams, Riley offense, Mario, Hollywood, etc. My totally uninformed prediction - he takes 3-4 visits including us and Alabama. We offer him something like $1 mil. Alabama makes it interesting. He ends up at USC as expected all along.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Idk if these are the "concerns" they're referring to, but some 247 posters were freaking out a couple days ago bc Hall deleted his UT commitment tweet.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
I'm willing to bet Addison takes some visits just to counter some of the tampering allegations. We would be a logical one because of Marion. But let's be real, it's USC in the end.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
I hope one of our BMDs starts an NIL revenge fund that literally goes out every year and tries to poach someone from schools that tried (or did) poach from us the year before.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
So we’ve got a TFB - IT source off?- 2022 Texas Coaching/Support Staff Thread
Wait, so not only did we extend these jokers but we gave them raises in their existing contract years??- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Anyone else find it interesting that Phil Knight is tampering with players from Nike's #1 college revenue source (and I'm sure other Nike schools)? Quite the conflict of interests for a publicly held company. Dude needs to focus his tampering on Adidas and UA schools and lay off his moneymakers.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Exactly. Except with all one year contracts!- Texas Football Roster 2022 -- "Welcome To The Party Pal"

I wasn't criticizing, just stating facts that he isn't some proven commodity- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
HS teammates with Bijan. Signed to play in PK's defense. Doesn't look like he really played on Defense last year., prob special teams- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
Go on...- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
This is hysterical. We're in the wild west of pay for play and tampering but the NCAA is "busting" Nebraska because an analyst did some coaching. Which also happens at every school.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)

You realize they have more than one field and can also have people doing stuff on the side while it's not their turn, right? Or instead of having four guys in line for each individual/group drill, cut it down to 2 guys in line and just have more lines.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
wtf. why.- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
I'm not saying there isn't coordination. Of course there is. What I'm saying is, hypothetically, it is possible for a collective to drive the ship without coordination if they feel like a staff is pussy-footing around. Ex: UT officials are scared of tampering so won't chase anyone who isn't in the portal (hypothetically. Idk if that's true). What if CFC goes out on their own and offers $5 mil to Dallas Turner? Clearly the coaches wouldn't turn him away. (again, that's a ridiculous hypothetical but just illustrating the point)- 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
This is what's so messed up about it to me. There's really no practical/economic value tied to these deals because it's all just coming from (wealthy) fans who aren't even in the program. I think you are underestimating the power of emotional fandom though. A lot of pro sports owners don't give a shit about profits, they just want the pride of winning a trophy. They'll spend for decades to get there. - 2022 Transfer Thread - It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)
