    Curious if any chance Mark Nobu (sp?) has any cold feet in College Station. Local recruit last year. Seemed an unusual fit to go there. Anyways, I’m sure USC will know before UW

    So true. There should be a contract where the players receive a healthy stipend until they are RS sophomores or juniors at which point the big money rolls in with a certain amount of snaps earned on the field. You still run the risk of paying out big money for a player like Smalls but at least he's been incentivized to put forth effort for a few years leading up to his playing tim. If the player earns the snaps early, they get their payday early.

    Bama has been paying players for years as the highest bidder and never had an issue. They may not be the highest bidder now but their boosters do the same thing.

    Jimbo just lost control.
