Lol i know the angle you are approaching here, but you made a big assumption that i will shake off as well meaning. He was fine and was diversified according to sound investment advice. When a retraction occurs it occurs regardless how protected you are, but timing can also be everything. I highly doubt any retirees at any major event went out unscathed.

Save Warren Buffet who was the only one green in the recent slide.

Yes, it means the "reporter" just started a rumor, no sources necessary. And the following:

literally says that what the On3 guy did "could" [i.e., also could not] "provide" other schools "daylight" to gauge Nico's interest. It does not say that other schools were gauging Nico's interest so the brave On3 assho wrote his story about that.

And wtf is "provide...daylight" supposed to mean? Enable backchannel contact? They could do that anyway. It didn't "enable" anything. Except the threat that the idiot margin will boo their own QB. And then that will be reported.

This is a giant nothingburger. Unless dumbasses like the guys in the FF thread incite other dumbasses to boo Nico at the spring game. That would be the stupidest sh-t ever. That risk alone makes me glad the game is not being televised.

Occams razor guys. Yes this will end up nothing as far as Nico leaving. It running in multiple news sites including CBS with "sources' says it was not just conjecture by on3. Also it hurt Nico's image - right or wrong. So while it will be nothing as far as him leaving whoever in his crew is handling negotiations should be summarily dismissed as all the major schools already have their deals done so his market now is small.

What sounds alarm bells in the House v NCAA settlement imo is that the settlement would require NIL deals worth more than $600 to be approved by a central clearinghouse that will vet contracts. How much opportunity for favoritism and bias is there in that? Not to mention extremely valuable leaked information to pets.
