Gotta be dude from Florida

Oh totally, forgot about that sleezeball

I thought Kiffin and Layla had reconciled. Not that that would stop him.

I just figured his college aged girlfriend left him and he’s thirsty

Notre Dame upgraded when Brian Kelly walked. Joke’s on LSU.

I don’t agree with 20% on these deals but I can understand higher %s because often times the players who get larger NIL deals are only at that given school for 1-3 years. Not like a pro contract that can be +/- 5yrs depending on the sport with massively larger numbers.

Yeah, i think anything north of 10% is robbery IMO...but that's how I feel about lawyers too. They take 30-40% of the settlements people get who have actually been hurt, killed, or wronged in some way. I find that ridiculous on it's face. These "agents" for college players, and pros, didnt even have to go to school for 4 years and pass the Bar exam. Where exactly is Agent School? There isn't one. There isn't a program for that at University either. In most cases in college, the "agent" is just someone close to them who they trust. Family or even a coach. You or I can pay a lawyer a nominal fee to look over contract language and make sure it isn't gonna exploit the athlete...if that's even necessary. I bet once we get a salary cap for players, the rate for college "agents" will come down as well. Them making 5x or 6x what NFL agents make seems crazy to me.

Dont stick your tounge on the flag pole.

This isn’t an opinion.

You’re so imbedded, you sit in staff recruiting meetings. We’re grateful you share with us mere plebes.

You're not clueless.

 

[butchna]

Well at least you aren’t getting ripped apart by the crowd like I did.

Have fun lol

Your kidneys back to 50% functionality yet?

You’re definitely acting like a plebe

Let’s clarify the attorney part of your post. Attorneys get a 4 year degree before going to law school for at least 3 years. Then, they have to pass the bar exam in order to practice.

The contingent fee (i.e. 30%) is just that- a contingency. If the attorney works the case, and the case is a loser, then the attorney gets nothing. The client never pays out of pocket until there is an actual settlement or judgment.

I appreciate the narrative that I know these things but just randomly have a non-objective ax to grind about our OL coach’s recruiting.

Some on here think they should be hired on staff because they were high school stars

 

[FranklinVol16]

As with DeerPark, LWS and other legit insiders, there’s having sources and then there’s overshooting your coverage and superimposing a personal OPINION as INFORMATION.

Well you are the dumbass that wouldn't shut up about Joe Osovet being an offensive savant and future OC and HC here..

Hourly?

Its all about a case by case basis. Money is different to everyone.. There are some strictly NIL agents and then there are reps for guys who are likely friends/family..... Everyone has different circumstances.

For what? Not a contingency fee.

I misinterpreted your comment. Press on.

“Shoulda gone pro when they had the chance”?

 

[Adam Sandler]

You're not clueless.

What you did there, I seent it.

I liked his upside, but the the rest of that mess you mouth-vomited is your own contrived fiction.

Explain it to me like I’m not a fellow professor.

Is that a prerequisite for posting on here?
