$370 a night isn’t bad to get paid to stay in Lubbock. I’ve done it for less. Oh wait…

When he exhausts his eligibility or runs out of classes to take, I guess. I just don’t know why in this particular situation I should be up in arms about it. This guys spent more than half of his college years rehabbing injuries, all while getting an education. It’s not like he’s played 9 years of games somehow. There are plenty of kids who are putting zero effort into classes and getting paid to be loosely associated with the colleges at which they are theoretically enrolled. I understand people hating that part of the system.

Let's just re-cap this guy's situation. He tore his ACL senior year of high school and spent his redshirt freshman year recovering from it. After his recovery, he was one of the group of Oregon football players who was hospitalized from rhabdomyolysis following their workouts. It can lead to permanent/longterm disability or death. He played in 2017, then broke his ankle in the 2018 opener. It required 3 surgeries and he missed most of 2018-2021 because of it. After his return in 2021, he tore his achilles tendon. He's gotten his Bachelor's and Master's from Oregon, and is donating money to a football team at a school for the deaf, as he suffers from an auditory processing disorder. Miami seems totally fine with him playing. The NCAA seems totally fine with him playing. He wants to play. He had been granted two extra years prior to the pandemic and the achilles injury. And THIS is the situation people are bitching about?

Seeing the Morris signed re-ignited my interest
Monkeypox replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Football
With a NLI, they will have to sit out if they transfer, barring a coaching change. There's a VERY significant difference in NLI vs verbal commitment. Sure, they can transfer out after they get there (one quarter/semester and release request), but they still risk losing a year of competition. Incoming freshmen on NLI is a completely different animal than transferring students. -
Seeing the Morris signed re-ignited my interest
Monkeypox replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Football
When guys sign NLI, that means something. When they announce a commitment, it has never and will never mean anything. The only thing that's really changed with that is the transfer rules have softened. These are not the same animal at all. Transfers are always verbal until they enroll in classes. That's why some express trepidation in counting on someone who isn't going to enroll until Summer or Fall. If they were coming in the Spring, we'd have a better idea about the position within the week. As it is right now, we could end up SOL at the last possible minute. Happy with the talent and the commitment, but that doesn't mean we sit back like anything is done. But, I don't think the coaches are blind to that. They're taking the risk on talent, because that's what we have to do. -

FSU first school put on probation for NIL violations, lol
Monkeypox replied to NT80's topic in Mean Green Football
NCAA rules prohibit boosters from using the promise of NIL deals as an incentive to try to convince a prospect to attend or transfer to a particular school. LOL, you mean what almost all these schools are using it for? -

Florida State officially leaving ACC?
Monkeypox replied to Dannymacfan's topic in Conference ReAlignment
FSU, Virginia, and Clemson brought in around $160m in revenue in 2022. That's top 15 territory. It's about revenue and eyeballs, and the top half of the P-whatevers bring in a lot more of it than the bottom half. That's why the the formation of the Super League is inevitable, IMO. -
Are we not signing a transfer QB?
Monkeypox replied to meangreenfaninno's topic in Mean Green Football
Yes, clearly we are not signing a transfer QB, as all the transfer QBs have committed and completed their transfers to their new universities already and nobody is left. I mean, I might expect this question in Spring or Summer, but right now...? -
What should our priority be: QB or Defense?
Monkeypox replied to NT80's topic in Mean Green Football
Yes. -
You recruit everything. Limiting yourself to ONE as a reactionary measure will doom the program. As we've seen, transfers can still graduate and move on. And you'll severely limit your talent pool if you only look for guys with specific eligibility remaining. Should we NOT have had Chandler Rogers this year just because he's transferring out now? Get the best athletes. You just have to be doing it every year, and it's gotten harder.

You mean Rocky Long, the innovator behind the modern 3-3-5 who's had success with it at multiple stops (including at Syracuse)? That said, I don't know how much more juice the 73-yr-old has in the tank, but if he'd take any role on our defensive staff, I'd hire him immediately.

Yep. They can basically change their minds up until the enrollment deadlines.
