3rd most ESPN 300 recruits

Lol It's about getting paid if you can while at school also with most of these recruits now and the very highest ranked/sought ones are going where they can get it usually. I think we didn't land one of the very top FL recruits composite 5 star or the very high 4 star due to this.
Yep. It's mostly about getting paid. As I just posted Bama currently has 15 in portal and haven't played their bowl game yet. It will kill college football if the ncaa doesn't grow a sack and put some controls in place.

What can they do though with the SC ruling on NIL? I think the only thing that may correct it some is if A&M and Miami etc don't get much of a return from spending all that money.
 
Alabama sitting at 15 right now and a few more are expected after their bowl game. My guess is they will finish with roughly 18+ in the portal and we are sitting at 23. Not that much difference.
Again demonstrating a mind like a steel trap that is....

UA is 3 deep with top quality.
UF is 3 deep with what you people have called Dan's losers.

That being the case, UA can afford to lose 20-30, while UF is suckin' hind tit....
 
And could one of you 'All Knowing' phootball genius types show me a list of all of the Gator Athletes that are getting NIL money? It should be public record shouldn't it, no need to hide the payoffs anymore...

Otherwise, you're all just barkin' at da-moon imo....

Yep Ole Bama, Georgia and some others aren't paying out more NIL than our people and they just have programs the very top rated kids want to go to.

NIL List dodger I see, but with cheap distractions in abundance. 🤓
But hey, keep on barkin' away, the moon loves you...

Seen it talked about and numbers thrown around on a few guys but never any official list where schools are reporting the amount of NIL their players are receiving from businesses etc.

Which means by inference, that they could be getting nothing, or very little, except for a very select few of them?

Yep, just like the good old days. Some got MickyD bags of cash or a used truck to drive around, but most just got the usual sweet deal, tuition, housing, meals, medical, tutors, groupies, lawyers, etc.... It's gonna be really tough on the poor few that don't get a big NIL deal....

What do you think the highest rated players have been getting at these schools that have been the top 5 recruiting ranked schools in the College playoff era? By the way the same 5 schools have won 15 of the 16 semi-final games.

You're the dinga linga that posted about culture so I simply pointed out the Bama will most likely end up with a similar number. Senility is not something to laugh at so I will be kind.

There could and should have been some controls around that. Just because they can benefit from it doesn’t mean they have earned it. My belief is that it was supposed to be a reward for performers that had actually done something at the college level. But of course the fvckin adults had to mess that up and start buying kids still in hs.

I agree about the big boosters letting this get out of control with unproven high school kids but I don't see how the controls would hold up in court though as long as the NIL deal specified it started once the kid was enrolled in school. The NCAA having a rule that high school kids couldn't even sign a deal that took affect upon enrollment at a school might not fly with the courts.
 
Billy's impressive 2nd OL haul in 2023, with 2 OL coaches recruiting, is way better than Dan's ever was.... 🙄

#5 IOL Roderick Kearney 6-4 300 ****
#29 IOL Knijeah Harris 6-3 335 ***
#49 OT Bryce Lovett 6-5 330 ***

So getting guys in the portal, that have already failed elsewhere, becomes critical....
🤓
Here's Billy's 1st short class OL

#31 IOL Jalen Farmer 6-5 325 ***
#93 OT David Conner 6-6 270 *** (where's he at?)
#67 IOL Christian Williams 6-4 320 ***
NR OT Jordan Herman 6-8 370 - JuCo xfer

It's a good thing that he brought those 2 guys from ULL with him....
A 3 star and a NR, but they were listed as 4 star xfers.
Unlike his 4 star QB that was a 3 star xfer....

I don't know how any of his recruits will turn out in 4-5 years, but neither do any of you...

There are quite a few proven players in the portal that can at least hold their own in the SEC. I think Ole Miss and Miss State built much of their 2022 roster that way and UK is starting to go that route a lot now also.
