FKIM01 Posted December 16, 2021 Report Share Posted December 16, 2021 Nothing surprises me...makes me feel a little sick, but not surprised. I'm fine with kids making a little pocket money, but it just feels like Pandora's box is open and it's going to morph into something that looks very little like the college basketball we see even today. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An NIL deal announced last week was that all Texas scholarship OL would receive $50K per year- and unsurprisingly they sign the best OL class in the country yesterday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't understand why Texas has been stuck in the mud for what, 15 years? If I was a stud football player from dang near anywhere, UT would be in my top 3 no matter what.

I would be very worried about this kid moving around a lot because it doesn't show much commitment.

Maybe Montverde is a better fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, they are deep...but JHS doesn't get subbed out much... I think in the matchup vs Bruce Thornton they said he played all 32 minutes...

Hopefully the fact he grew up a Purdue fan helps some, but you really can’t look at any players as 4 year commitments in this day and age. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuswingman Posted December 27, 2021 Report Share Posted December 27, 2021 I wonder if any coach will decide they will only go after transfers. why bother training a player when you can go take experienced ones. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be difficult. You see a lot of these kids have been recruited by a lot of these teams before and are familiar with their staff. Difficult to just start a relationship with a kid with no previous contact previously. Not saying it can't happen or doesn't on some occassions but it seems most bigger quality recruits either go to big time programs that are a big step up or they switch to schools where they have a past relationship with assistant coaches or a recruiting history.

We got a hint within the last day that there were some things going on being the scenes but who knows. Potentially 4 high schools in 4 years isn’t a good look. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
