Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Well I didn't know that.

We still haven't had a ton of gold starters leave like that.

This downright sucks. No other way to spin it, unless we can keep him.

They just have to make these guys employees. It's ridiculous.

They might as well if they're going to ruin everything else that has to do with college football.

I wonder when the revenue sharing kicks in if they aren’t just gonna make contracts and make these players employees? People make the argument that coaches have been able to leave whenever they want forever. But it’s not the same. If a coach just decides to leave on his own, he likely violates his contract. These players have way too much freedom.

The patients shouldn’t be running the asylum.

Had a busy day, what’s the word on Ricky Gibson?

As of now, it looks like he is panning to enter the portal in April.

We kinda needed Houston to lose to have a good chance at a one seed. Although the 1st or second 2 seed wouldn’t be bad. Someone was saying anything but the west?

Future OL coach or even OC?

Hmmm…

 

[Jimmy Football]

Some rumors floating around that Gainey might be out with illness.

Have come to the conclusion that second seeds are preferred.

This is the new "business" of college football. It sucks, but it is what it is. Choices are limited. We either pay up, entice some CBs into the Spring portal ourselves, or play with a bad secondary next season. My guess is we pay up. My hope is we don't just say "screw it" and play with a bad secondary next season. McCoy's injury hurt us in more ways than one.

Might have to move a safety to cb. This why we can’t be dragging our feet in the portal and losing hs db commits right before signing day. Pretty infuriating how you can go from loaded to empty cupboard so quickly. Same feeling with the wr room as the db room.

I do think rickey gets his bag and ultimately stays but man it feels rotten all the way through.

Welcome to the World of College Football players holding teams hostage for more money. Don't get me wrong, pay these guys but leveraging for another bump in pay after already getting one is uncalled for. Hope CJH tells Gibson to kick rocks..

 

[JCVol00]

Future OL coach or even OC?

NO NO NO

he ran OU’s offense into the ground

 

[JCVol00]

Score of big interest

 

[smokeyhuntsgators]

Easy solution to this. Have punishments for violating contracts. Want to bolt after signing a deal or try to get more money? Fine, but either you or the school you're going to are going to pay a buyout.

@JacketVol frame work is absolutely beautiful

Need someone to overlay the strike box on the video clips

Is Ga imploding?

Wouldn’t even try to keep him.

Negotiating a new deal is one thing. Immediately shopping that new deal around and leaving mid season is quite another. Unless you’re going to redo every guys deal let this one walk. And I like his talent, I think he was going to be a big time player but you can’t deal with this level of BS on the team.
