Great recruiter etc. He can re sign but this is what building via recruiting looks like today
Such a bad look for him to be in the portal regardless of if he comes back or not
Well fuck
because he wants a bigger bag… fuck outta here. These kids don’t give a fuck about the college or the coaches or the fans.
The game is ruined so get off my lawn.
almost becomes a little pointless to even sign HS recruits
it would be interesting to see the number of starters of the teams in the playoffs that were actually high school signees
Time for them to sign their life away if they want money. Prick the finger
Wtf is this shit show and why am I still paying attention?
It's actually more than you might think for most of the name brand teams. We will see what it looks like in a few years.
Part of the problem here I could see is Fisch hiring a DC who had a really good chance to only be here for one year, maybe two.
yeah. He was supposed to be a starter year 2. Bag hunting.
This shit needs regulation
My guess is Bama, 0reg0n, and Tejas will be the main players here.
alright, close this thread. Done with this shit. On to the next.
Just recruit only 3*s - it's a waste of time to recruit any 4*s, just buy the starters through the portal. Back-load their NIL $ deals in 2-3 year contracts + bonuses if they become a starter. If they leave early, they don't get most of their salary and bonuses. Entering the portal, immediately nullifies your 2-3 year NIL deals and earned money.
The top 5 richest schools will win the NC 80% of the time. This Yankeeization of college football will kill it. The Yankees have killed off most MLB fans. Imagine if Deion Sanders leaves Colorado. They'll lose 80% of their "devoted" players overnight.
Seems like the entire recruiting department can be laid off and that money can go towards buying players in the portal. I'd rather have proven commodities if this is how things are going to be.
Go ahead and offer up far less competitive contracts see who signs.
it’s pure free agency and if itdoesn’t kill the sport, nothing will.
If they don't want to sign at least a 2 year deal, they will obviously leave in the next portal window for more money = wasted time and effort on them. Give bonuses if they become a "top" player stat-wise.
Sounds like he took some advice from this guy.
Is Fatters his agent?
I think there is an overestimation on how much we will root for laundry if the teen boi models wearing the laundry change drastically every single year and just get auctioned on an annual basis.
The laundry means something to us, deeper than a fan connection to NFL laundry, cause huge chunks of the fan base also committed to the same "institution" as well as voluntarily funding its success.
There are other sports and entertainment options out there to care about.
I hope / think(?) guardrails are coming. I can't think of any other league that has unrestricted free agency year after year. Coaches have multi-year contracts and players should have (shorter) multiyear deals with buyouts too.
In the meantime, now that House has entered the portal, if he comes back that's great and if he doesn't, then fuck him. He entered last year after the coaching change and now wants to shop around again?
I'd love to know what the staff is thinking and what they think he's worth.
That’s working out great for Cuog.
Except they forgot the backload part. Well, bye
House is taking a visit to USC this weekend per Twitter.

coming back sets a bad precedent probably. He is not even a proven star at this point. Just a nice young player.
Also the difference in the nfl is coaches can't just jump to another team while they are under contract unless they give up compensation and it rarely happens.
Yeah, you're right. Better to move on and Lincoln Riley could get fired if he has another bad year.
Sounds like he isn't Our Kinda Guy.
I'm cool with USC and think college football is better with them relevant but holy shit that would be a dumb move. Pretty much their entire team is in the portal and Riley is a dumpster fire.
This. Kind of feels like college football is a middle eastern country where the dictator was overthrown and now some shit like the Taliban has taken over. I think even Isis might not give ASU and Boise automatic spots in the final four though and let players transfer every nine months if they want and think that will work long term.
One thing I think you'll see is this setup, which includes coaches leaving, razing programs and those programs never really come back the same or at least feel like they could never win their conference.
Listening to the LockedOn podcasts over the summer, where they interviewed a few commits who detailed what the coaches were having them do during their trip, Fisch's program seems a lot more like Petersen's. I can see a smallish linebacker crying about money and the staff letting him go get overpaid somewhere else. We already know we can beat USC, we're trying to get bigger bodies to not get prison raped by Iowa now.
