Heres a guy that was committed to our class last year but flipped to Tech late.

Good catch! Maybe we still want him. We're losing 4 receivers in Legendre, Bernard, Smith and Cambre.
His brother had a great career as a Cajun...
our main focus is keeping our guys such as T. Carter, Bryant Williams, Bill Davis and others on defense. need Krewe Allons more than ever!
No reason to hold on the the money. Rules change next year and payments will come directly from the school.
It's time to empty the piggy bank and keep the train rolling.
Saw today that Amhad Hardy is entering the portal from ULM…. Think he will end up at an SEC school.
So $500,000 is that for one year or spread over the time he has eligible? It just seems year over year "NIL" is going to get expensive to maintain between keeping current players happy and recruiting new ones.
The money and things being done in the name of NIL are things beyond common sense, for example last year this:
Utah Utes football players: In October 2023, all 85 scholarship players on the Utah Utes football team received leases for Dodge Ram 1500 Big Horn trucks. The trucks were part of a NIL (name, image, and likeness) deal between the team and the Utah Crimson Collective, a nonprofit organization. The Crimson Collective covered the lease and insurance payments. The trucks were leased for six months, and the leases could roll over depending on the player's eligibility and enrollment.
——-
Short term lease at least 1k a month plus insurance on under 25 drivers. Rough guess between the collective and any dealer fleet deal the dealer is eating, combined they’re ponying 150-200k a month. Just for trucks.
Name of the game is keep as much of your core as you can and use NIL for retention…bring kids in from the portal who are hungry to prove themselves and can fill immediate needs plus continue to develop high school recruits.
That is the only formula for G5 schools to survive short of getting big NIL donors.
With Rice, Mcneese, Eastern Michigan, and Missouri for out of conference we have a chance to run the table and make the CFP even if we lose that Missouri game. Missouri is always beatable however. At least a run at another SBC championship !
