Welp, let’s assume this is true, we never stood a chance

 

I am quickly coming to freakin hate A&M — and I even went there

 

Well, at least we know what the going rate is. Lol

 

I’m curious to see how hungry those 18 year kids are once they get paid that amount of money. I expect some of these guys, if not mature enough, will not work as hard for that next level, or become crappy teammates only caring about themselves. Going to be interesting to watch.

 

Does a big NIL contract make a 4* a 5* now?

 

Yea this is just for one player… i don’t think we’ll ever have that kind of dough to dole out… doesn’t mean we can’t have top ten classes.. but the difference between top 3 and top 10 seems pretty drastic to me

 

Shit cracked me up @bobbybaker86

 

Let's assume this isn't just internet garbage, although it likely is. How much pressure is put on a coach to play a player that is getting paid top dollar to advertise for some business or another? That business could tell the coach that if the player isn't getting playing time, and therefore his name, image and likeness aren't worth jack, that they aren't going to keep putting up money to buy players for the team. Not much difference from when shoe companies were steering players towards certain schools in hopes of them becoming famous and profiting off them with future shoe contacts, it is just now it is going to happen with more than just shoe companies.

 

Reminds me of the time I told my girl friend I chose her over Cindy Crawford and Elle Macpherson.

 

Was Thornton of Baylor on West squad the same kid that was committed to UF at one time? Speedster from Miami?

 

I guess that was meant as a compliment and not a statement of minimal expectations?

 

Gator on Gator crime

 

Yep that’s him

 

I’m just impressed he didn’t jump early!

 

He should learn the actual name of the institution too. It's not the University of Grambling.

 

I think that’s the part that will balance itself out. They’ll stop paying as much for kids before they even see them play a snap. Especially if there are busts left and right. But i think it’ll get worse with the transfer portal i believe
