Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[engineerVOL]

Can you tell me what you were talking about earlier when you said "After what just happened"? I think I know but I'm not sure.

Oh I was just insinuating the boosters that got roped into Pruitt’s McD’s bungle, are gun shy about joining an NIL venture capital movement to help a university that investigated itself for wrongdoings and burned the ships on that island.

And yet I didn’t see what the big deal about it was. That was a copy cat post from Mehlen.

It showed the inherent wit. He’s basically a Van Gogh who refuses to go to Dollar Tree and buy a canvas…because he has an earache.

You committed on his mom??! You sick pervert!

This is a family site, sir!

Well we’ve been waiting for a committ

Former Tennessee Vols defensive back slams Jeremy Pruitt

I must be out of the loop. Who is on our team that shot him in the leg?

wow

 

[GVol1966]

NIL deals don't go through coaches.

Right that would be cheating. That never happens.
Look we all know that, but if you believe Saban ain’t involved in everything at Alabama then you’re wet behind the ears

that pic looks like it's from the renovations a decade ago, i think this is jokes

Respectfully, you're crazy. Iowa State is an all time Bottom 10 program. That guy is an amazing coach, 1 year doesn't disprove it, just proves how tough a job that is.

You would think that you wouldn't even have to explain that..

Candace Parker trolled Geno Auriemma over her dominance over his UConn Huskies during her college days at Tennessee


Not football, but still fun!

Only <8 more days until whatever @butchna knows comes to be revealed. Or less!

Yeah, I’m not buying it.

 

[butchna]

Esp for teams like UT that are sleeping giants and just need that boost. Can really flip a roster and plug massive holes with this portal. Teams like Vandy though are screwed bc they can’t just enroll anyone haha Love to see it.

Said it better than me…so props.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Sobering NIL stuff handed down last night. It’s the reason…not that residual Pruitt DB recruitment jazz that’s being floated. He wants to be here but it ain’t happening unless what Swain’s preaching and what tnvol72 and Bruce Wayne are hinting at swings it back around. Gibbs + others is what got me overexcited on here.

I have tried to tell them all day that is what you were saying, but they would not listen..maybe they will listen now that you've come straight out and said it.

I thought a lot of folks here were better at reading between the lines...but nope..

 

[SweetasSoda]

Let's also be honest, $$$ people want to see a product they're willing to dough money out on before doing so. Heup did it and now the money will flow. We're behind because of a crappy last 15 years. We will also catch up quickly.

May be concerned about him going to OK also.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

People call it Texas because that's the beneficiary, but none of the money directly goes through the school or anyone officially associated with it. This is its own entity, Clark Field Collective. The people donating to the Clark Field Collective are Texas donors of course, but their donation to the CFC is in no way tied to the university.

The CFC will then donate money to University of Texas athletes for different services because legally there has to be a quid pro quo. In this case it'll most likely be autographs, appearances, and it'll also help pair local businesses with athletes.

Why do people have such a hard time grasping this stuff?

GAY4JOSHEUPEL. LOL. That might be a clue about whether this is real.

From the article:

The Pruitt era at Tennessee was full of toxic stories like this one. Vol fans should feel fortunate that Pruitt is gone and Josh Heupel is now leading the program.

Oh, we do.

We do.

Meanwhile Mr Oak Ridge Dish Network Man is like..."but that's .1% of my monies and would take 1 whole week of investing to recoup...too rich for my blood!"

And that is why we have it so hard.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

So we need to find a way to outbid Bama? Damn. Hard to see that happening. Only hope is them spreading that money around so many great talents.

They will pay him just to keep him away from us and others...not because they need him, or that he is going to make them any better. Alabama has played keep away like that since the Bryant days...but they have perfected it in the age of stupid teenage lemmings.

 

[bigorange]

LSU about to get screwed on this deal if Kelly can't get his staff to leave. You can hire replacements but replacing that many at once = you're not hiring who you thought you were hiring.

I hope he does get screwed. He is an arrogant clown and I hope he loses every game

Every game except vs bama and UF, right?

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Forgot about Jack Sears, blast from the past name

Yep..old Sunshine.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

If Texas and TAMU are allowed to do straight up funds, USC, tOSU and BAMA will follow. Then It's over for the rest of us. That's the truth. If student athletes are allowed to do their own hustle as opposed to donors setting those things up THEN we have a fairer playing field but we won't compete with oil money or Tech/Hollywood money or even BAMA's brand at this point. We'll compete with smaller schools like Auburn for 2nd tier. 3rd tier schools and lower might as well fold up shop.

My question is..how did so few see this coming?

Bruh, you’re talking to the ring leader of the “Clear bell, clear mind” movement. I’ve been busy this morning, what did you ask

If you will check your quotes you have seen them. I asked you what you were talking about when you said "it ain't happening" to see if it was what I thought you meant.

Oh, we do.

We do.

That is some low down dirty stuff. Kid takes the fall so to speak and you don't even visit. Then you ask him to walk.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

NIL deals don't go through coaches.

No...but you have to think that any concerted effort by any NIL collective would ask who the coach wants them to pay.
