    It's a violent game. You got to get that guaranteed money when you can.

    How many millions of dollars has Tebow earned since playing at UF, and still earning in endorsements and speaking engagements because he was star at UF? A huge multimillion dollar platform provided by Florida, which also helped his draft stock. You will never see that coming from a lower tier program.

    I’ve always wondered what Ingle Martin could have done in Urban’s offense. Obviously Leak worked out fine. Just a curiosity.

    Bo, Herschel and Tim Tebow all would have made millions in endorsement deals while in college.

    And in my opinion, they deserve every penny. They were worth way more than a diploma the schools they represented.

    You have some serious reading comprehension issues. I did not call anybody a “money grabbing gold digger “. Your words not mine. What I said was, 98% of these kids won’t reach the gold ring. Statistics bear that out.

    Stop posting lies. Better yet, stop promising to leave and just do it

    I agree and it would have been in the true sense of Name, Image, Likeness like it is supposed to be. Not this wild wild west pay for pay crap we have now.

    They would have been doing the same thing they’re doing now back then if it was allowed.

    I think they were
    The numbers were different, but the system was the same. The only really big difference is the amount of money and the stupid ass transfer portal that they jump through every three months.

    Me three. Enjoyed the polite Utah fans in Gville during and after the game, although after they were obviously subdued. They did enjoy The Swamp atmosphere, but when we went to SLC for the rematch I was extremely impressed with their stadium and loud fans even though their stadium seats only a smidge over half what we do. They were WAY into that game!

    When I saw (on tv) how loud their fans were when we played out there, I thought, and still do, they were so impressed with the crowd noise at the Swamp they decided beforehand to take a page from our playbook.

    That, and they really wanted to exact revenge for our stealing the first game from them.

    This is a guy I am really excited to see the recruiting staff and coaches and NIL to lock up. Has got a lot more interest than his ranking suggests. He has some excellent traits, and would complement VB. Could be a special receiver class this year.
