‘23 CA QB Nicholaus Iamaleava (Tennessee)

Next year will be interesting. Tayven will have a year in the system and is a good QB that fits Heupel’s system as well. I don’t see Nico coming in and being the starter day 1. Will be a great competition to watch next year.
Nico will be a day 1 starter, you don't bring in a guy like this and leave him on the bench, unless you're Kirby Smart.
 
Nico has been playing football for two years and has the chance to end up the #1 player in this class.

Potentially better than a kid who grew up with insane football pedigree and has spent his entire life training.



That. Is. Insane.

If Archs last name wasnt Manning Nico would be ranked higher. Not a knock on Arch. He's a great talent but go watch Nicos film. His Arm strength, Fast release and touch are INSANE. The kid has talent I've rarly seen at his age.

I get what your saying but UGA doesn't have a QB like this. Watch tape and look at the accuracy and drive on his ball. Then watch the body control on the run and ability to change arm angles to make the throw he needs to make. Then finally his touch on the ball. Maybe the Vol in me but Nico is the real deal.

I'm simply taking the word of the journalist who broke this story, and has seen the contract, Stewart Mandel, as to what is in it, over you chaps who have not. It's not any more complicated than that. You guys can keep doing your Lloyd from Dumb and Dumber routine as long as you like. We got Nico, and 8 million reasons we can keep him but we're going to keep him because of the money, not because he has to be at Calhoun's every day at 2 p.m. or any other bullshid cartoon villain scheme you've seen before on Darkwing Duck.

No lawyer here but I'll refrain from making any comment about the NIL deal without reading the WHOLE contract. Could be a journalist with ulterior motives cherry picking what he shares. Call me crazy.
 
So the contract apparently is that he can earn “up to 8 million.” It is not a guaranteed 8 million. So if he comes here and is a back up, he isn’t getting that. His market value plays into it somehow. Don’t ask me to explain it

makes sense and actually seems for fair--- you turn out to be all that is advertised, we pay you big... you're a bust, and we pay like you are a bust...

The journalist who broke this story which is the best piece of news for Tennessee football in decades.

I'm saying Kirby would totally sit a guy like Nico, he's already done it with Justin Fields. Nico's the real deal no doubt, I don't think Heupel is the kind of dude to sit him in favor "experience" though. Nico will start the opener in 2023 imo barring injury.

Lol. Lane Kiffin just retweeted The Athletic $8 Million NIL deal article. Someone is salty. He knows Ole Miss will never pay $$$ like that and he wishes he was here.

I've tolerated that piss-ant for a while now, but after the game this year and all this recently with the tweets, he can straight suck it... I hope the next time we play him we hang 100 on the mutha F'er...

We should be able to hang 100 on him, whether we can keep him from scoring 101 is the bigger question.

Heupel is not a guy thats afraid to play a Young QB. He has done it everywhere he has been. And I agree Nico knows the plays he starts season opener in "23"
 
Sorry if already reported. Does this mean he is shutting down his recruitment and will not be visiting Georgia, Oregon, Bama, etc in the future?
He's still taking his visits but I'm not worried at all. This kid is as committed and one can be. You can relax Hoss. He bleeds orange
