Portal thread. Who’s leaving, who’s coming.

[egregious]

He was telling the truth but things changed.

Just like Joe Biden.

universal lie coverage

[TC]

a little different. the #2 qb entered the portal 2 days before signing day. they were going to have to either sign a qb or get one from the portal.

personally i can't wait for the day contracts become a thing and hold all sides to a little accountability.

That would stop a lot of this nonsense, agreed.

[BleedinRed]

Do how'd you feel about the staff telling that QB that he was the only one in this class?

I guess I give the staff a pass since they had a QB on the roster who decided to portal out.  I guess the staff shouldn't be able to replace him with another QB?

As badly as it sucks, the sport needs collective bargaining.

We can pine for contracts all we want, and I agree we should.  But if Ole Miss tells a guy they will give him the same money without the restrictions from our contract, he's going to be a Klansman.  For this to work out even remotely fairly the sport needs a standard contract.  That can't happen without collective bargaining.

Most of these guys aren't gong to make this kind of money in the NFL. They are just extending their opportunity for that big payday. Pittman wouldn't let the two TE's pull this shit, but he let's the Olineman.

Hope no one makes this a racial thing.

[animal]

well some of y'all called this exactly right:

I don't usually say this, but fuck him.

That's fucking funny. Good thing Pittman saved that keed's future so he could go play somewhere else.

[Barton Fink]

If there ever was a reason to burn a truck....

[Piggielicious]

Pittman canned his agent and hired sexton to get paid as soon as he could get a better deal. Kutas is just doing what his coach did. This time the shoe is on the other foot.

As for you retards giving him a pass for lying to his qb recruit, any idiot could see the backup was going to transfer.

Nicely done

Isn't that what a ceo type is supposed to know? I mean if the x's and o's are left to BP and TW, then wtf is Pittman doing in the ceo role?

I agree with you, btw.

Is this the kid from Bryant?

Not portal, but money related.

speaking of nil - this was kinda interesting from the former Edge director and the thread that ensued.

I'm not sure I understand the issue. He wanted to go to FSU, but LSU offered him a new Range Rover more cash.

So what's the problem?

[vegashog]

and it's funny that kelly went on his rant about the players wanting money and then out outbids fsu.

I'm guessing you're referring to the guy who posted it. Not sure what his point is.

This is a case that is more common than people think. These kids are gonna choose money over everything else.

I believe we are not competitive competitive in NIL. If what htl says is true (I know) that we are upping our NIL to ~$10M and other schools are $20-25M, how can we conpete with that? You're already at a disadvantage in HS recruiting.

Then do it! I mean what the fuck are we waiting on? If he needs 20 million in NIL to "win with..support", then give it to him YESTERDAY! Us fans will replenish to coffers soon after proving that what you say is true.

Because let's be frank, this looks like a cash grab on Sam's way out. Hunter too.

You're right about that. But this has been the way of college football for 5 decades now, maybe more. At the end of the day (I hate that phrase) this is nothing new. We can trace it back to ED getting a 'vette, and it was happening even before that.

The only difference now is that kids have more leverage, and think covettes are cars for old white guys wearing new balance. Kids want cash.

I cant blame them.

[animal]

I thought it was a trans am

[egregious]

I believe GT has that trademarked, damn, several of the guys have that as their go to verbal crutch.

I guess it is better than "you know".

(naturally I overlook what I would have sounded like at a press conference at 19 or 20 or 21.)
