'25 Portal Thread

Rice was the closest NFL player we've had to MJ imo. Dude never stopped outworking people, even into his 40s at the end of his career college kids couldn't keep up with the workouts he did during the off season.

We also don't really know his true 40 since there is a big gap in reported times as fast as 4.45 and as slow as 4.71...I actually think he was a 4.4s guy all day watching him. One of those guys that understood angles better than anyone as well.
I don’t recall him getting caught from behind much
 
People think if we don’t sign every player they want out of the portal and in recruting it means we don’t have any money 🙄

Some of these posters must be really bad at handling finances if they think throwing millions & millions of dollars at every portal player is a good investment.

Spyre is being smart which they don’t seem to understand.
 
We just made a deal with David Sanders that Ohio St couldn’t sniff…so we may be better off than you think when we want to be aggressive.

Ohio St mods know this first hand.
Yeah, this idea that we won't or can't pony up when needed is just absurd.
Just because we spend more money on retention rather than acquisition.
 
So us versus Phil Knight? Yeah….
Phil is spending like a man who knows he isn't taking it with him when he goes soon. He is 86 with a net worth of 33 billion. If the rumors are true that he and others spent a combined $23 million for Oregon's roster last year, that is literally nothing to him.

You are right, we wont beat Phil off the field.

I was being sarcastic. I don't blur font. And to be fair, I thought calling Trippie princess would make it obvious.

Now, about us pursuing defense....

From what I can tell looking at Oregon's roster, they have 8 returning scholarship WRs and have already added Malik Benson through the portal and 2 Wrs through HS recruiting, including the #1 WR in the class. How many WRs are they going to have? Is Phil Knight providing unlimited NIL resources? Are they willing to get into a bidding war to add a 12th WR?

He didn't get where he is by ignoring ROI and giving his money away. I'm sure he gives a lot, but I doubt he's just slinging around as much as he can trying to buy a championship
