    True thanks. But wasnt the oversigning in between signing in feb and actual enrollment in august. Now these players are actually enrolled and not paying.

    Probably much to do about nothing anyway, once NIL comes directly from the school, they could just deduct the tuition amount, ergo player paying their own way so they wont have to worrt about scholarship limits. Then they can give scholarsgips to those who previously woyld be tweeners, scholarship level for g5 or walk on on p5, so basically we will be left with no money and no players

    2- Our talent wouldn't be wanted by too many good FBS programs.

    Really want and hope #1 is the answer.
    Maybe CMD's approach of investing NIL in your current players rather than chasing guys is proving to be the correct approach?

    The big boys are having players paid NIL just to tryout in the spring. If they don't keep them, the player is on their own.

    Portal closes for undergrads AFTER tomorrow. Not sure at what time tomorrow. A few prominent players but outside of the P4 cleaning house & dropping scholarship players not making their 2 deep......it's been relatively quiet. Exceptionally quiet for UL.

    CMD recruits those on roster first then spends what is left on portal

    ….the problem is the amounts given to the returners to the squad……they think, and maybe rightly so, the new guys should maybe get less and they more!

    If we had sat out bowl and stayed 6-6 would that be better?

    Gross. Digging around into the founder of the athletes.org... dude has been trying to cash in on this new era of CFB since Pandora's box was opened. All anyone sees anymore are dollar signs.
