Look at Maclin’s numbers this year. DT disappeared once he had a target on his back.

And the administration wonders why people/fans don’t care.

All these players think it won’t happen to them… until it does.

Not sure if I should applaud his confidence or hold off and get a laugh at this if he disappears.

Considering he failed on his first attempt. Hope he gets splinters in his ass while he counts the $$$$ he gets riding the bench

Dude dropped like half the passes that went his way. What a tool.

Sometimes, these players (and those around them) fail to realize that the system has more to do with their success than they would like others to believe.

His production almost fell off the cliff in the last two or three games. You can try to blame the QB for that, but DT dropped some easy throws and went down when he was barely touched.

When it becomes all about money, love of the game takes a back seat

I was thinking the same thing and wondering if there's a correlation between the time he started getting phone calls from school saying hey, as long as you're healthy, we have a spot for you and then he started worrying about getting hurt rather than playing ball.

His poor production and drop in playing time these last few weeks has been so astounding that I wondered if he might have been involved in some type of college sports gambling scandal like the Temple basketball player from last season. It was like he was trying to play bad.

How much is it worth to be in a system that utilizes and features your talents? What is the value of that experience and those memories? 

I would be really hesitant to walk away from that for a few thousand dollars. Unless you are getting paid WAY more than you could ever make outside of football. 

One thing these guys don’t realize is if the P4 can afford to pay YOU then they also have the money to pay 4 or 5 guys just like you. And the P4 has no loyalty to you. Maybe you will play. Maybe you won’t.

I feel bad for everyone who tried to support Chandler and this dude at that autograph appearance.  You wasted your time and money.

I don't and PT Barnum agrees with me.

Yeah, I thought the same thing about Chandler Morris' play

      Another NIL Coaching Casualty

      Please move if needed, posting here as it's related to NIL and is probably more applicable to football than basketball. Miami basketball head coach is resigning. The following are quotes that should be of concern to any fan but especially some of your blue blood programs. What happens when you can no longer outspend your peers so your legendary coaches leave? Saban was the most name worthy retirement but there's been plenty others and here's another big name leaving. NIL will be reeled in when the big money boosters lose their favorite coaches, no longer see the wins on their records, and see they can no longer just money-whip their way to success. From the Miami Herald: “At this point, after 53 years, I just didn’t feel that I could successfully navigate this whole new world that I was dealing with because my conversations were ridiculous with an agent saying to me, `Well, you can get involved [with a prospective player] if you’re willing to go to $1.1 million, and that would be the norm.” ... “What shocked me beyond belief was after we made the Final Four just 18 months ago, the very first time I met with the players, eight of them decided they were going to put their names in the portal and leave. “I said, `Don’t you like it here?’ They’d say, `I love Miami, it’s great.’ But the opportunity to make money someplace else created a situation that you have to begin to ask yourself, as a coach, what is this all about?’’ He added that he tried “every which way” to make things work, but “last year was a disaster”, and this year was not going well, either. He felt the new players were not buying in as transfers had in years prior." https://www.miamiherald.com/sports/college/acc/university-of-miami/article297597538.html

      Breaking: Cash McCollum Enters Portal

      Bringing in Poffenberger, signing Jimerson and Mestemaker returning, Cash probably realized he wasn’t going to get any playing time here soon. Best of luck to him.
