Color me surprised that people promising NIL as enticement have not followed through at all and those who have done everything by the book have set expectations that will be met.  It's almost lik

You've seen Texas' LB coach right? Hasn't been able to get anyone but a 3 star LB in the 2022 class. Dude has no clue what he is fucking doing in terms of recruiting key talent

actually brought in 4 star Derrick BRown also. Plenty of misses, but he brought in 2 kids.

Apparently Perkins has an uncle who is driving the bus and considering this staff struggles at times to recruit the kids themselves I have a tough time believing we can navigate the uncle.

A&M struggles at times to recruit the kids themselves and that hasn't meant shit with the families.

His mom wants him at A&M for some really weird reason.

I get that but this guy isn’t going to bama’s #1 receiver….  The game plan is better but at Georgia if he’s good enough he will make it, at Bama he might be receiver #4 or more.  We as fans have huge pride in our team but you think it’s ok for a guy that won a Title with a team to just switch to the other team he helped beat?  I get changing your status but wtf at that point, have some pride and faith in yourself and your team. 

I mean that's on Georgia for not opening up their offense.  Jameson is going to be a first round draft pick.  Burton probably thinks he will get the same opportunity to showcase his ability.

Look I'm an old soul myself but how are you as a Texas fan against these types of moves?  We went fucking 5-7 after a 4-1 start and look at the portal additions that we've made.  Can you imagine the power that we will wield in the portal if we can ever figure our shit out?

We are in a new era and you can have all the pride and faith that you want in this program but it will be built on the shoulders of hired guns.

If by “hired guns” you mean kids attracted to NIL money, maybe. If you mean mercenaries like Dindy and Nolan, probably not. Alabama literally didn’t pursue Nolan this cycle because they knew he was a Merc and his dad would be a headache. Even programs that have bag programs in place avoid some mercenaries.

No wonder Max Johnson couldn't resist transferring here ... but the King comment.  Phew.

(And these are aggies ... they're not kidding.  These are serious comments.  This is really what they think.)

Texas is learning how to play the game per TFB

Spoiler

NIL” Deals and Transfer Recruiting ImpactBy: Super KPosted on: January 24, 2022
TFB

***First, let’s be clear, in my estimation, what’s currently happening in CFB recruiting can hardly be called NIL deals. Plain and simple, this is boosters inducing players to go to school. And while some of that stuff happened before, under the table, it was nothing like what it is now.
***I spoke with a coach late last week and he told me that while he’s been on the road, he has high school coaches now asking for a share of “NIL” money.
***I spoke with a source with some direct knowledge of NIL deals and I wanted to pass some of that along to you.
***Was told that a particular transfer QB from a P5 program had a multiple P5 transfer opportunities. He ended up at a G5 program. Source told me said QB was offered close to seven figures after a booster or two from said G5 got involved. The family simply couldn’t turn that kind of money down.
***There are high school players being offered 400K plus.
***I was told that Texas outbid Tennessee for Wyoming WR transfer, Isaiah Neyor. I don’t know exactly what was offered but was told by a solid source on this that Tennessee had offered him a deal worth 250K and whatever Texas offered couldn’t be countered by Tennessee.
***Remember though, that Texas wasn’t on Neyor in the beginning. You’ll recall that we mentioned there was some back channel work to get Pitt WR, Jordan Addison. Addison never entered the portal so Sark and co couldn’t do what they did with Neyor. But I suspect it’s no coincidence that a day or two after Addison said he wasn’t leaving, he posted…

I also suspect it’s no coincidence it was around that time that Sark and co went after Neyor. I was told Sark wouldn’t take no for an answer.
***Now, I do believe that there are major regulations coming. The sense I’m getting is that a federal bill is in the works. But…
***For now, I bring this up to say that you have to suspend some of your previous understanding of recruitment, especially as it relates to transfers.
***The reality is, you can have a player trending in your direction but you have no idea what’s going to be offered the next day. One coach told me, “I can recruit a kid and land him, wake up in the morning and find out I lost him to the money”.
***We don’t know who is being offered what at all times and that is the point.
***So while we can be first to tell you Mario Williams is visiting or that Texas is in the lead for Ochaun Mathis or that there is a possibility of that Jordan Addison will enter the portal, trying to predict where these kids will go in this current environment is really challenging for everyone, including coaches. Again, a player can have a certain intention and express that to folks we’d normally talk to and the next day a booster steps in and changes the game.

They are.  But the extrapolation from "struggled against Kent State" to probable star NFL QB is bananas.

Ok. I thought, without context, that they might be talking about 200 million as NIL for the starting qb over his time there.  Which sounds like lunacy until you apply it to the source fanbase.
