Recruiting Forum Football Talk IV

[Leeleesteeth]

I asked you guys to pray for my wifes family in Alabama the week before Christmas because every last one of them had caught Covid...well thank the good Lord her sister just got out of the hospital.

The rest of her brothers, brother-in-law and sisters-in-law and neices and nephews had cases ranging from mild to really severe, but one sister (56 year old in horrible health) had an extreme case and has been hospitalized for the last two weeks..It was touch and go for a few days, but she finally turned the corner a few days ago and just got released to go home today.

Thank the Lord, and thanks for your prayers.

Praise God!!

The NIL stuff is speculation. The TE is a walk on

thanks, bass. if youre right about the nil, i think thats an innovation in nil land

 

[UpstateVol613]

Not too late to cancel the game for Covid. Do your thing Karen Rovell.

 

[Dooby15]

Get ready for a terribly called game.

Wade is an FBI issue. NCAA doesn't have precedence over them ofc.

But Pearl paid his dues. I believe in 2nd tries. He also just lied to them. He didn't kill a dang man lol. Surely not worth a lifetime ban, would be ludicrous.

A coach on his staff was arrested by the FBI. He's dirty as hell. He's just learned his lesson about covering his tracks.

 

[Paper_Towel]

We’re giving these walk ons, the equivalent of solid 3 star players, NIL deals IMO. These aren’t normal walk ons

Wait wait wait…. by giving walk-ons NIL deals, you’re essentially giving them NIL scholarships?

Jesus Christ.

There is a current NCAA investigation into LSU basketball. I’m also pretty sure that every school involved in the FBI investigation has either been hit with some kind of sanctions or is in a pending NCAA investigation.

Spyre has been in sports marketing for some years. Eric Berry just made a tweet supporting them the other day, as he's known and used them for years.

They have said 90% of these funds goes to players. 10% for overhead. And they're shooting to make it 100% in the future. 10% may not even mean much of a profit, if any, given all the events they appear to be setting up. Depends on the volume and scaleability, I suppose, but I digress. Imo their play is to build business relationships with these players that will pay off over the long run and build their brand by being the face of NiL for such a big university.

90/10 is better than most charities fwiw. I also hope they agree to and publicize about auditing these funds. I think that will give some assurance to (reasonably so) skeptical folks like yourself.

Ok...already acknowledged that 10% was fine with me.

Speaking of Chuck..wonder what Chuck Smith is up to these days.

Are we cheering for a meteor, a ginormous sinkhole or chronic, spastic diarrhea?

Yes

Very Random but it involves music…we have often talked about Kenny G being the absolute but I think y’all have been sleeping on Tim Cappello (sexy sax man) im here for this open discussion

Clarence Clemons would put both to shame.

Well they won’t be able to screw an SEC team, one of them has to win.

 

[utvolmaniac]

Sasha Banks in the CFP opening skit? LOL. ESPN has stooped to new lows.

 

[VolNash17]

I hate this tonight. I’m picking Georgia.. But somehow hope it ends up a no contest and stadium sinks into the ground. Saban retirement immediately afterwards

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

Time for the depression bowl

 

[ugg]

Hot take: The Dolphins let Flores go because they have Saban locked in. Works for me anyway

Jesus Christ.

I'd hardly believe walk-on caliber players are earning the equivalent of a full-ride. A large majority of scholarship players aren't making that kind of bank (30-100k?) and walk-ons aren't even expected to ever make an impact.

I mean, we've had good walkons in the past (Jumper especially...believe he had academy scholarship offers) so I wouldn't jump to conclusions, especially with an in-state kid.

 

[UTSuave’]

@Devo182 get ya boy and make him walk some laps

 

[InVOLuntary]

Y'all realize this is 100% orchestrated. This is exactly what Skanks has been working toward.
