LSU wisely doesn't want to build up a potential in-state rival. I hope Howard goes to Florida. The QB room in Gainesville is pretty bare.

UGA was up 14-0 in 2020 before Stetson got hurt. Then he played hurt and sucked, and then UGA had to go to D'wan Mathis. You never know. that said, 1) 2020 Stetson wasn't actually any good; and 2) UGA's defense had zero answers for Florida's wheel routes So yeah, Florida still probably would've won, but maybe it stays respectable. I dunno. Also, UGA has lost one (1) game since then, which, wow

If $13mm is the ballpark of NIL deals for incoming freshmen then it's no wonder some players who'd be day 2 or 3 picks but are at premium positions (e.g. Nix, Penix) are coming back for another year, that's potentially more than most will make trying to play at the NFL level.

It’s also tough because the potential to create discord on a team of young folks. New guy gets a fat stack but I don’t? Peace. I know UGA uses NIL but the bigger pitch seems to be payday for year two rather than before you start. Not that we didn’t have guys where we need to incentivize now.

I dunno. At this point a) I think Rashada and his family are probably going to be a problem doing everything they can to monetize even though he’s done jackshit in college and b) UF almost certainly bungled this as hard as possible trying to get an impact recruit because Napier billed himself as a talent acquisition and development guru. Ultimately, whatever. I’ll put on my O&B stuff and strap in for the self-flagellation every Saturday, Graham Mertz under center. Hard to feel good about the prospects of UF football for the next five years. Hopefully the baseball team shaped up well.

If the agent is telling the truth, the market will somewhat stabilize itself eventually because most elite QBs wash out and it’ll only take a bust or two for each school learn their lesson (I guess, I dunno, some schools are really dumb and rich people are good at burning money as a dickwaving maneuver). For every Kyle Trask there are a dozen Feleipe Franks, Jeff Driskels, Emory Joneses. You get the picture. poo poo, Rex Grossman recruited himself to Florida and unseated Jesse Palmer as RS Freshman, and Brock Berlin Superstar hardly saw the field.

All I can say about bowl games is that it's sucked having VT miss them the last 2 years, and it was super cool for Tennessee to get an emphatic win on a big stage. So I like them, they aren't meaningless if you aren't in the playoff, but I can see how if you had a disappointing year each persons investment in their teams bowl trip will be subject to change and even disappointment or distaste (no one wants to go to shreeveport).
