'25 FL WR Jaime Ffrench

[Jackcrevol]

I have a feeling this will be the excuse moving forward. Yeah who needs to stock elite talent like UGA, TX and OSU does every year right? I guess it’s better to get some elite guys every few years and hope for the best.

ugh, please no.

 

[LittleVol]

From reading APs tea leaves we may be moving on here.

Seems like Travis Smith Jr or DJ Miller is the direction the WR board is going.

There was long discussion on here about Ffrench and how weren’t going to give him a Lamborghini

Right or wrong a program has to do an ROI analysis based on market value. The slowdown in peer recruiting (my perception anyway) is pretty telling. If cost is above value add CALCULATION time to apply time and money elsewhere. Especially in the one year rental world we are in now. Hate to spend big for a development year and then wave goodbye. Rather go after them later IF they prove out, so let them walk away in a friendly manner.

Yes but it’s first time I’ve heard AP say we may not even bring him in on an OV. Just thought that’s another level of moving on.

Yes since we weren’t in the Top 3 right after his visit to TN. No reason for TN Coaches to waste their time.

He was talking about a Lamborghini NIL deal, like Bijon Robinson received at Texas. Not buying him one. SMH

6 one way, half a dozen the other. Arguing semantics. Either way dude was wanting a lambo. Can go pimp some other program.

Is this kid originally from in-state?

Well this escalated quickly. This is life in the NIL world and part of the reason I don't read at least half of these threads anymore.

… I don’t even know what to say to this lol.

WHY would he a want a deal from Lamborghini specifically? You know what that kind of deal would include right??

No

Can't get them all .BOT wants to pay these high school kids whatever they want.

False. But I do want to pay the elite ones what they want. That’s how you build championship rosters. Gotta pay up. French is elite. It’s obvious other big time programs are willing to pay up. Why not us?

I would rather be focusing on building a elite offensive line first.

With a great OL, Nico and GM can make a 3*WR look like a 5* see Lad McConkey of Georgia.

We dont see the value. I think we are confident we can find someone who wants to be here, equally as talented without the pre madonnadnessitude.

I got a 65 skylark… needs battery,some paint and bondo. Motor needs some work and it has a couple of broke windows but it’s push button drive and ought to suit him just fine. It’s out in the pasture with some weeds growing up in it just come and get it. Be sure to bring wasp spray and watch out for copper heads.

I agree with that but we need to stack studs on the OL as well.

Why are you assuming he is a diva just because he wants a car?

Why can’t Lambo of Knoxville let him drive one for a year?

A Lamborghini is more than just "a Car" with a base price of $237,848.00. That's ridiculous!

 

[knoxvol52]

I'm cheap, I would've only asked for a brand new fishing rod and a Ford Explorer.

Does that mean he is a diva or a pre Madonna though?
