NIL guy said earlier today they’re very confident the players coming in are more talented than the ones leaving. This was before the Jacobs news but still.

The difficulty is that there are no F’n rules with this.

The way it’s being done at some other programs; the “collective” is essentially divided among all the players. Then when coach has a transfer or recruit they want to land….they’re calling up a booster and saying “hey, how about doing an NIL deal for this guy?”

3rd parties get involved and help hammer out details of the contract. The issue that arises is that currently, the “rule” for these deals is absolutely non-existent. Technically, they have to provide “something” in return, but there is no guidance on what/how much and zero oversight from the NCAA.

Kirk calls up Mr Hawk and says “hey, we really want to keep KP. Need a million bucks.” Mr Hawk says sweet, here’s the million. Have him make 3 posts on Halo each month.” And we’re done.
A good friend is the attorney for the Michigan State version of the Swarm. I may have some details wrong but I think their NIL group picked up a chunk of Tucker’s aging-horribly $95m contract. I know that one dude kicked in $14 million of his own money.

I hope more people get burned on these deals. Except Iowa ‘investors’ of course…

Kirk passing. Academic and/or character issues. Good news is McNamara is going to attract guys. But does suck that literally the only time Iowa leads for a really, really good WR they uncover issues that lead them to pass. So Iowa lol

McNamara, while a big upgrade, is being turned into something he's not by Iowa fans. WRs aren't flocking to fucking Iowa to play with Cade. C'mon now.

Hopefully the D2 white kid passes the Kirk test.

The group text(s) is/are mocking the living shit out of Doug right now.
I cannot be held responsible for undiscovered personal issues.

In all seriousness, that is going to be a gigantic fucking issue with this transfer portal shit. Really talented guys hit the portal and it is a mad scramble to throw money at them and who the fuck knows what they are hiding.

One thing I've learned over the last couple of decades when it comes to Iowa football, never get too excited about stud players signing until they actually sign. Then don't get too excited about them getting on the field until they actually get on the field. You're welcome.

I don’t think my expectations for McNamara are unrealistic. Jake Rudock Iowa success would be good enough for Iowa to be really good. I’m not saying guys are flocking to Iowa, but McNamara is a name a lot of people recognize and that’s more than what most programs in the big ten can currently sell

Guys, all is not lost.

We still have the Michigan guy who just had knee surgery and we will hopefully get the Michigan TE who just had what he described as a "life changing operation."

The good news is that we likely have a big bucket of $$ that we were gonna give likely serial killer Holden.
