NIL Numbers

The NCAA is a farce. Who could have possibly foreseen NIL being turned in to pay for play?!?!?!!

What the **** did you think was going to happen, idiots?
 
James Blackmon got 200K forty years ago.

So I don’t know, with inflation . . . .

I’ll admit it is jarring to see a headline that we bid 800K and USC bid 2 million.
Ya don’t see us ever being able to spend as much as some of the bigger schools on players.
 
Who says they haven’t turned you in? And Mims came back to UGA because you have to be in good academic standing to qualify for an immediate eligibility.

Who is "they"? You think Pruitt or Fulmer is going to do anything to help the vols out after getting screwed over by them? Bring your proof. Not the bs you read on vol boards that accuse UGA and Bama of dropping bags when in fact the vols are the only ones proved to be dropping bags. Knoxville is such a cesspool the only way anyone would go there is for cash.

Quit making stuff up man, as a former educator I know you know absolutely Jack about his grades. When you want to talk crap to someone who has proven multiple times to be smarter than you are, at least look things up and be right. Giving grades out loses you job, no one is going to that.

Sims wants to play, and he will/is be a good player. But UGA he has 2 guys in front of him who will get drafted next spring if they declare. I have no idea if he was offered a NIL deal, but legal last month right. He isn't in the portal,

It’ll be up to the major money folk.

Hack I think you may be an attorney. So I am going ask you the legality of this option. Say a kid is paid 500k, but instead of paying to him. It goes in an escrow account. If the kid want to leave after 1 year he forfeits 75%, after 2 years 50%. If at anytime he is dismissed he gets it all. We keep talking about coaches able to leave when they want, but it isn't free.
 
UK just out bid Mich St, Ohio St, Bama, Texas A&M for Kenyata Goodwin. Signed several 4* from Nashville, a 4* Pennsylvania kid flipped from Penn St.

We gonna be the biggest spenders like Texas & Southern Cal, course not. But we are gonna be in the thick of schools 15-25 nationally.

Proof? You claim Tennessee was dropping McDonald’s bag when that has been proven false.

Proof? The UT administration admitted it to save Pruitt and his staff's buyout. Stop embarrassing yourself. What difference does it matter if it were Mcdonald''s or Burger King Bags?

The denied the McDonald’s bags vehemently. I’ll tell you what they really did to get if you wanna know but I kinda wanna wait for the NCAA to drop and guys like you be super butthurt that nothing major happens to UT. I’ll give you a hint. A school in the PAC12 is being investigated for the same thing.

I don't care wh as t happens to that trash program, it's a cesspool on college football, one of the dirtiest programs in the country. My team kicks sex offenders out of school, your team goes and gets them. You should be very proud of that. Through multiple coaches and administrations the vols have once again proven they will take criminals in an attempt to win a game. Every one involved with him better hope he is on good behavior, he attacks someone else's daughter when the vols knew his character and brought him anyway.

Thinking through the NIL consequences, I think a “private entity” could draft a contract with a player using both performance and longevity requirements.

Why not?

If this is merely to be viewed as capitalistic investments by adults and corporations, virtually any parameters could be imposed by those making the investments.

Most likely short-term: most deals will be for a year.

If the latest Johnny Football does not pan-out by starting his Frosh season, he losses some/most of his money for the next year.

What if I pony up a couple million for a four-year deal with the next Tim Couch, he goes to Kentucky for two years, but an Atlanta business throws 10 million on the table for his third season, to go to Georgia?

Now you have a “third party interference with contract” lawsuit against the Atlanta folk, and if the NTC bolts, against the player for breaching his contract with the initial NIL payer.

Goes and gets them? Like who? Why wasn’t Wyatt dismissed? Why’d Holloman stay on the team a whole year after assaulting his GF?
