Barton Fink

Saw where Singleton visited App St. Not sure if he will get any high major looks.

I would take Singleton just to be able to look at and have his mom around the program.

I'd be promising her that I'd treat him as if he were my stepson.

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

especially if I'm a QB in this era I'd be looking to get my stats up so I can get a fat deal with an SEC school so it makes sense for a guy like Singleton to go somewhere and start.

One could also make an argument that RB is a position where guys should really try to get paid as well as possible because of the wear and tear on their body. A kid like Russell we would have run the dog out of him next season and likely wanted him to take a hometown discount. He said fuck that. Nice thing about football is somebody else will work for that.

Haven't seen any either. Wonder if he has the option to come back.

There's no need for visits if MissisSIPpi University is involved.

Ray Zorback

I'm not sure why anyone is visiting. Just text them the amount.
irritatingly incompetent & infuriatingly unhelpful

Hearing Crutchfield and maybe Dendy are on their way back from Mizzou.

Would take both in a heartbeat. 

Crutchfield would be WR1 here next year.

Heard he'll end up at OU.

Wait one fucking minute. Someone can put limitations on when a player can transfer, in the portal?

I just read a comment about the portal opening and closing. So a player can't transfer and get money at another school on December 31st? January 12th? Why not?

What entity is doing that? The NCAA?

If an entity can limit the time period of the portal, they could put other limitations on it. How often you can access it. Whether You are eligible to enter it at all. Whether you can transfer to schools within your conference. Whether you need a hardship.

Where are all those rules?

THEY WANTED THIS

NOW the "WHO IS THEY" is the question...my guess is it's the TV execs constantly looking for ways to fill dead air convinced$$$ the college presidents to vote for college free agency and do whatever it takes to make it happen. They have endless streams of content with all this shit now...it's like Christmas if you are one of these guys that beats off to recruiting news. AND WHO GETS TO FUND IT? OH LETS MAKE Scooter sitting in his mom's basement fork over money...he's an idiot.

The Can of worms opens further and now we have Big Wigs and Fat Cats looking to BUY into a controlling interest of a college team.

My dumb ass continues to think this isn't sustainable but then you get 2nd string linebackers getting north of a half a million to go compete for a role somewhere else with virtually no stipulations and will be an unrestricted free agent again next season. No performance clause, no academic clause other than having a pulse and "showing up"...zippo.


And how many of those 17 to 23 year old kids earning more money than they know what to do with will be worth a damn by the time they hit 30? Peaking too early with life changing money can really fuck up a lot of these kids. Also the sharks gotta be swarming getting these kids to invest in this and that...entire family members with their hands out. I mean that's a lot of pressure to put on a emotionally immature kid.

Also it's happening at the high school level. This is crazy shit.
