It’s not official yet. Just projecting he lands here.

But like you said. We need to be investing in better linemen

And here’s what @BigOrangeMojo has been saying (maybe in other places) but 11.6 mil a year in nil isn’t going to make it easy to win championships. When the top 5 are spending 23. Even Bama is begging their people for more money

Thats depressing.

Saying we need to spend money on the line and not just skill players

 

[Orangeslice13]

Thats depressing.

It is and it isn’t.
Apparently our collective is sitting on a lot of money for NIL use. They just aren’t breaking the bank yet

It's depressing to me that this is what college football is now.

I get what you’re saying, but it’s always been about the money. Just more blatant now.

Oh, I didn't know that. Lulz.

Bustin your nads. I'm just so tired of hearing that too. Whether it's true or not I get tired of hearing "out coached" because alot of people in the FF that don't seen to know crap always jump on that first.

I know it's Always been about the money, but the whole landscape is changing. The portal, NIL, playoffs etc. I know it's going to keep going forward, but that doesn't mean I have to like it and can't bish about every once in awhile.

It’ll correct itself at some point. Hopefully

Not just bama getting away with it.
And they’re losing out too.

 

[Orangeslice13]

You think they’re gonna put some type of cap on it ?

 

[Behr]

It’ll correct itself at some point. Hopefully

I don't believe it will. I think we'll just get used to it.

 

[Orangeslice13]

I’m going to throw a random guess out there.
DS considering a NIL offer that would have him return for his senior season.

 

[Orangeslice13]

There’s just no telling where I heard that.

Ohio State defender confirms suspicion about Tennessee's offense after Buckeyes' big win against the Vols​

"We had three weeks to prepare (for Tennessee)," said Ransom. "Hats off to the coaches. It's easy to play fast when you've been shown so many looks, you've been shown what's expected from them. And that's why we were able to play fast and react fast because we had seen it three weeks in a row. Our coaches came up with a great game plan. Our scouts did a great job for the last three weeks [of] showing us the looks, the exact thing that we thought Tennessee was going to do."
