with all the activity, does it need to be?

Of note: The SMU trolls appear to linger. It seems as though they don't want to forget about us. Green Wave trolls haven't found us. (yet) carry on.

I can understand the move. Letting people play for 2 weeks, then the TRO gets reversed...their position and what they would have to decide on those who actually played during that window...that would be a nightmare.

There is no scenario where a G5 can establish this kind of brand/identity. Not since the creation of the P5/G5/BCS stuff. Now, it's even worse: with NILs groups able to bid freely - with no cap - for the services of players, these student-athletes are leveraging their abilities in the portal and leaving places like Alabama/USC/etc to command more money.

Plot twist: Earle actually did outplay Rogers in the Spring, and got easily rattled when it came to game time. Is there some reason that isn't possible?

Is this related?

From his Minnesota profile also, his ESPN Profile

definitely true Are you speaking from some personal experience, or maybe something you witnessed with a friend? "not in all cases" alone isn't the strongest way to argue about the the decision of G5/P5 when it comes to NFL prospects. in case in matters, I wasn't thinking about just the draft. I would think if you impress enough on a pro day, someone will give you a chance, even if it's just a FA deal.

If you’re producing the NFL will find you. I think the P5 advantage is in play when you’re riding the bench, not producing, but you get to do workouts on a pro day that has many more scouts than you would see at a G5 pro day.

maybe he is, but I saw that tweet and interpreted it more as a "good luck, bro" message.

Thanks. Where can one find these NIL numbers per school?

ugh, sorry. My brain read that as "played", not beat.

I would think the NIL budget has nothing to do with the school's budget, right?

I'm reading conflicting information about this. What's the scoop? Anyone with 100% certainty?

DD era? Im thinking Ricky Williams.

We're definitely not winning 5 games without him, that's for sure.

I was pretty late to this party, and I expect more to catch up soon.

Yep. And expect redshirting to be avoided, as we want the most out of the HS kids before they move on.

Cash is still verballed to us, right? IIRC he gets to Denton this coming semester.

Just to be clear, these are verbals?

probably my biggest gripe about the current setup: a program can bring in athletes on NIL, not have to put them on scholarship. The entire thing has basically negated the scholarship limit. I hope they find a way to stop this, but color me skeptical. The entire world is flipped right now.

“Massive revenues”? I want to know what that’s like in Denton.
