Not sure - that's the rumor. But if you are getting a few hundred grand up front (or more - who knows)...take the money and go. If J-State can't develop you or you think your NFL stock is slipping, go to another school next year.
BIG money for Hunter. Barstool Sports is involved. Apparently Prime is a partner there. This just reeks.

See Quinn Ewers.

Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if Hunter enters the transfer portal next year. I'd say he comes to FSU if the fanbase weren't so toxic ATM.
 
6 singed so far. 5 mediocre black players and 1 token white kicker.
Unlike crappy Dan, they are killin-it recruiting,,, only the very best.....

NIL means that now the business owner alums are free to 'hire' in players using NIL as their cover.
No more need for all of those traditional $100 hand shakes....
The xfer portal means that a player can now sell himself at least twice.

My fandom peak was from 1965 to 2010, imo that was the peak of Gator football.
All 3 Heismen, a wad of SEC-C's, and all 3 NC's.
I'm actually glad that I won't likely be around for what's coming, or has already arrived.
The Student/athlete label is now officially a poor joke...
 
It would be comical at this point if a few others follow. NIL is a death blow to college football and kids are very short sighted. I wonder if in a few years when companies or whoever realize they aren’t getting a return on their NIL investment will it calm down a bit?
Did the investments into paying coaches ridiculous salaries calmed down? Mullen just got fired. He was making 7 mil for never winning a championship (other than the East). I remember back when SOS was like the first million dollar coach.

Teams(with booster backing, corporate sponsors, etc) have been paying to get (or keep) these coaches. Look at 4 loss Jimbo at aTm.

Then look at all the money they continue to put into facilities.

Has any of that stopped, even when teams don't win big?
 
Another kick in the balls to FSUs class. Marvin Jones Jr to UGA. Honestly would have rather had him at FSU instead of UGA.

I cannot understand the Norvell extension. Not a good recruiter and life is going to get a hell of a lot tougher with Billy and Mario in state.

Nope bad move. Should of least waited until after ESD. Not sure why do it the day before.

Paco, still want your take on the two very odd OL takes
Connor and Williams? I think Connor has potential. But it is a transition class. Half the guys never work out in a transition class.
I’m guessing they were just takes because we need olineman so bad. I expect we will look at portal for Oline as well.

OK, thats what I figured. Better to take a few for depth than Muschamp it and take none
