Recruiting Football Talk VIII

If that's true...then UNLV are the garbage thieves and liars.

Somebody there better have receipts...surely to goodness if somebody paid the guy, they got receipts and a money trail.

What a mess...if this kid was promised a certain amount of money and that promise was not kept, then I don't blame him for doing this.

If I am going to take sides knowing what little I know, I would take sides with UNLV, that the university and its lawyers met their agreement for they certainly would not open themselves to such a lawsuit knowing how much bad PR that would be for the university and future prospective athletes. Lot of bad PR over a relatively small amount of money.....not worth it.

Hearsay unless a written contract appears for the $100,000.

Isn’t the other side of the story - that he went into coach’s office and demanded more money - also hearsay?

It's been since 2006 since the Vols have won an SEC top 15 road game.

Now since Sept 2024

Well Sluka went to a Peddie School before going to College. So his Parents obviously aren't hurting for money.

Like Mani Pedi?

Probably but as in every argument there's his version and there version, when the truth most likely is somewhere in between. All parties could be exaggerating and making themselves look like the victim.

Those are nice as well .

This. We would never vote for a yeti to be the king of the RF.

Nor would we vote for @SergeantVol for Mod, so don't get any silly ideas in your head.

Also this says it was a verbal agreement. Bad business by his agent to not get a written contract. Interesting thread

You can't support NIL and be mad at the UNLV QB. This is the culture money creates. Look at professional players constantly holding out over contract disputes.

What have you been doing to get your balls frozen? The wife keep her purse in the freezer or something?

At the present time they are not frostbitten but it was the most horrific thing I could think of at the time and I surely will keep that fear from my wife, she is creative enough already.

Yeah

Georgia is 49-2 in the last 51 games…. Two losses to Bammer… 1-2 vs Bammer in that stretch. Last loss vs anyone not named Bammer was 4 years ago vs Florida. But Kalen Deboer leads the gumps and we’ve yet to see that coaching matchup between two behemoth rosters stocked full of Blue Chip after blue chip… I wish they brought back ties for this game.

Good news about Heard. Guess his contract negotiations got worked out.

They hold out because NFL contracts are not guaranteed. NBA and MLB players do not hold out. If you sign guaranteed contracts, this stuff doesn't really happen. But when you agree to verbal deals and non-guaranteed deals, this is what you get.
