    Not good enough for NFL but good enough for one more pay day!

    At first I couldn't figure out why a lot of these guys are entering the portal so late in their career. Some are doing it to better their NFL options. Some are top dogs where they are at. However, I think a lot of it is because they are a fringe players in the overall picture. Probably never...

    Just hire a Defensive Coordinator

    Might stop some of these players flipping or some to commit if they knew who the Def. Coordinator was???

    NLI - NIL

    I just noticed something tonight when reading an article. We use the same letters for National Letter of Intent (NLI) as Name Image and Likeness (NIL). Just thought it was ironic! When is the early signing day? Wonder if any big NIL offers will lure our high school QB. 55 TDs should be...

    Worst Tackling

    This has to be one of the worst tacking exhibitions I have ever seen. The whole game tacklers were getting nothing but air. One juke and we miss an easy tackle.

    Seth Green

    All the talk in the QB thread about Kramer just being a Wildcat guy got me thinking about Seth Green. Maybe it has been discussed here. But see he is a TE on the Cowboys roster. Was on their practice squad …. cut and resigned in January. Always liked him. Hope he can stick on some...

    NIL in other sports compared to football

    I have only been hearing about these big NIL contracts football players have been getting. Maybe I just don't pay attention to other sports. However, wondering if that if affecting the basketball recruiting too. I am assuming that a bad record has a lot to do with Minnesota's situation ...

    Transfer Portal Question

    Do these guys just up and enter the transfer portal or do they tell the coaches ahead of time? Just was wondering if coaches get a chance to talk to a kid who they would like to stay or they just get surprised to hear about a kid leaving.

    Top 100 NIL Deals

    Not sure how accurate this is but here is a link for the top 100 in NIL deals: Look who is at #59 https://www.on3.com/nil/rankings/player/college/football/ Might be a reason a lot of these guys stay in school. A bunch of them may make more money in college than they will afterwards ????

    Agents

    Dont know if this has been touched on but do these athletes (male and female) have agents to help get them deals. I know somebody mentioned tax account to make sure they dont get in trouble with IRS. Or do schools provide this type of help in addition to the NIL money???

    Thomas not seeing field

    Watching Duke-Kansas have not seen Ky Thomas on the field. Might have been a bad decision for him to transfer.

    Landing Spots for Portal Players

    How have the guys who entered the portal done as far as finding a new home?

    Fun Comparison of Star Rankings

    https://247sports.com/Season/2021-Football/CollegeTeamTalentComposite/ I think someone else posted this a long while back but I just came on it again. It shows a comparison of all the conferences combined or you can click on a conference and see that comparison as well. Georgia was certainly...

    May have to start new divisions

    We have always had divisions dividing tier one, tier two and non-scholarship schools. The way things are starting to look we may have to divide teams by how much NIL money they produce. The 25 mil. that has been attributed to Texas A & M is only the start. Who knows ... we might have to...

    College Football more like MLB than NFL

    College football is more like major league baseball than like the NFL. In the NFL there is a salary cap. In MLB there is no salary cap and that is why you have so many haves and have nots. There is a lot of parity in the NFL because everyone has the same amount of money to spend. It has...

    Portal players playing in the same season

    Was just wondering if any portal players who enter early enough play for the new team in the same season that they transferred or if that is even allowed.

    Texas flips two OL from Oregon

    I would think $50,000 a year for every scholarship lineman at Texas might have had something to do with that. The NIL wars are in full swing!

    Transfer Portal provides few opportunities for high school seniors

    Here's a good article on the transfer portal and how it has caused fewer opportunities for high school kids. Last year 400 fewer high school scholarships were offered to high school kids and they think the number will grow...

    NIL

    For good players but not great … are they staying in college for extra years because they want to get that additional free education … have a better opportunity to make more money in college from NIL endorsements. Not much chance of ever making the pros …. Do you think this played a factor in...

    What was the most important play or plays of the game?

    I didn't get to watch the start of the game but found out later about the safety getting tossed after the first play. That may have been the play of the game. From what I hear about him is that he is kind of the glue that holds that defense together ... the QB of the defense. So I think...

    Subs

    Was driving in the car and listening to KFAN yesterday. Fleck was doing a show with a live audience. I didn't hear the whole conversation but the question was asked about subbing or lack of subbing. I didn't agree with his answer and don't agree with his practice of playing starters very late...
