This is going to create a super toxic atmosphere between fan/players when they don’t perform up to their “salary”. Also worry about these players being busted for tax penalties simply be of ignorance.

It's already toxic on social media by the crazies. Not sure how much worse it can get than death threats, which even happened pre social media. Believe it was either ainge or crompton who even had family members receive threats.

Not sure if it's any worse in the pros where guys are not living up to salaries or much different than college players already not living up to expectations. People just need to grow up

Why does anybody pay any attention to obvious idiots? Everybody knows they exist everywhere..so..why do people act surprised to find out they are out there, especially since the internet and social media has given every moron on earth a worldwide bullhorn to spew their retarded 🦬💩?

i don't think Stetson Bennet gets enough credit. that due is really frustrating to play against. you think you should just be able to destroy the kid, but he just makes plays.

that said, i think KJ and Hendo are the two most dynamic QB's in the league, and are virtually interchangeable in many regards, though i'd say KJ is a bit more physical in the run game than Hendo. but i think Hendo throws a better ball, very catchable.

Bryce Young is/will get the accolades b/c a) he is very talented and b) so is the rest of his team.

all in all, going in, i think you have to look at those 3 at the top of the league. but someone always comes out of nowhere, kinda like Hendo did last year, and there's several you could look at in the conf this year. Rattler has an opportunity to be that guy, and whoever suits up at QB at aTm will definitely have an opportunity.

The "out of no where" is whoever is at aTm (as you said). They'll have the talent around them and obviously Jimbo has generated NFL talent at QB in the past.

This Levis hype has gotten out of control. Can’t wait to beat em again as usual

Both can probably be true. Obviously people see something in him, but he's in a tough spot as I bet their offense regresses a bit due to losing the OC, wr coach, wandale, etc. Stoops will probably re-inject himself and ruin things. He could be like Tayven Jackson...shows all the signs of being a good one, but stuck in a garbage offense.

After typing all that...he probably should have transferred.

agreed.

but you know what, i'm still the guy that dog cuss's the idiot that cuts me off in traffic...like it's the 1st time that's EVVERR happened....lol.

i think the bigger reason is, people that have negative attitudes/opinions are always more vocal than those that are satisfied or content. so it seems that the only feedback is negative feedback. when the reality is, there's usually a silent majority that doesn't feel compelled to vocalize their feelings.

there's a lot of people on this board that never post at all, many who probalby lean either more positive or at least neutral on most things. Meanwhile, the ones that troll or have a problem............

i would lean that way too.

but a fresh start is exactly what Rattler needed. we'll see if it pays off for him. USCe's roster isn't as good as aTm's or OU's so how much impact can he have, even if he is "better now"?

I fail to believe that Spyre doesn’t cover the responsibilities if not outright set up the reporting itself before dispensing the dough. Mebbe had a meeting or a 100 leading up to the contract signing?

Exactly.

We have an entire curriculum set up for students and now Spyre. They are 100% going to be reminding these kids to pay their quarterly taxes every few months. It will in no way be an "oops it's April 14th...everyone go pay all your taxes now" situation.

I mean, no doubt a few will fall through the cracks, just like the general population. But I don't get how people think they'll just be flying blind when we've set up soo many resources for them. I could even see us having CPAs to work with everyone come tax time. And at worse...they pay late payment penalties...it's really not a huge deal. Actually reporting the income honestly is by far the most imoprtant thing, legally speaking, and that part is very simple...I'd imagine they'll get a 1099 from Spyre giving them the exact amount.

Will we have 0, 1, or 2 receivers drafted higher than Velus Jones next year?

Lot of unknown beforehand. IF Bru enrolls, IF Bru performs at a high level, IF Tillman matches and/or exceeds last season’s production, health hypotheticals and then the requisite Underwear Olympics and Pro Day numbers. Biggest factor in Velus going second day was his domination in Senior Bowl practices and his numbers at the Combine and Pro Day.
