'25 Portal Thread

I’ll also add that it seems like that Karic can get another year, so you’re looking at having Heard and Karic being your returning guys. Then we’ve heard good things about Satterwhite at center. My hope is that Bennett Warren can break through and start at the other guard spot next year. Heard-Karic-Satterwhite-Warren-Sanders might be what we see next year. I also hope we get some IOL portal help as well, so we have plenty of options.

Jesse. Perry.

Everyone seems to be forgetting about him. Perry came in and immediately drew rave reviews. He's ahead of Warren on the depth chart. Of the freshmen OL, he's the furthest advanced.

Once you get to campus, recruiting rankings do not matter (to the extent that they even mattered before).

This is insane if true.

Who is Jack Pyburn?

Good luck finding a team that will let you pigeon hole them like that kid

 

[Carp]

Yeah. Then kids just never sign with your team in the first place because your NIL payment terms aren't competitive.

Total value doesn't change. Just the payment schedule. If your total value is higher than other teams, you will still get kids to sign on.

 

[Carp]

That is insane. His stats were super mediocre this year.

Hate to see Jordan Matthews and Jalen Smith in the portal.

Any word on whether any of these guys end up sticking around? Haven’t been able to keep up with the madness of late.

Both were going to get buried on the depth chart

Who is Jack Pyburn?

That was my thought as well.

Obviously you flunked your Finance class.

We're talking about a few months difference here. The time value of money isn't relevant on such a small scale.

Nope neither will be sticking around for the CFP.

Callahan started following Bothwell. (He didn’t before)

Someone go ask him if we’re recruiting him


Also follows
- Josh Thompson
- Travis Shaw
- Jalil Farooq (not sure if we would be interested in him, who knows)

Doesn’t follow Wendell Moe

Per On3 article a day or two ago Tennessee had interest in Fluff, they might just be guessing though

I was just making a joke about the Wendell situation.

He said we weren’t recruiting him but he said he was offered. So who knows

good for florida. guaranteed playing time is toxic

Costsl Carolina maybe?

 

[SGMVols]

good for florida. guaranteed playing time is toxic

Even NFL deals don't guarantee starting jobs (not explicitly, anyway).

Absolutely ludicrous demand

 

[DaddyChad]

There’s no talk of McCoy and Boo leaving. Sure we will have to pay them more, but the odds of them leaving are slim IMO.

There was discussion about Sampson last year as well if NIL didn’t get sorted out. They got it fixed. Both those guys will be back and will get paid unless they want to be somewhere else.

 

[DaddyChad]

This is insane if true.

Florida is such a damn dumpster fire right now though. Even if a kid left here, that kind of detail would never see the light of day with Heupel in charge.

Like King has said some demands were ridiculous as well on certain kids but he never said any details of what those demands were. Just seems crazy to let out those kinds of details if you’re negotiating with a player in good faith.
