Bama/Ole Miss, what are the NIL estimate of these two players?

Walter Nolen and LT Overton.


Curious how the first portal window is compared to the second portal window

Obviously we learned that Damonic Williams might have commanded a $1.5mm deal.

But how does that compare to the first portal windows for these two HS 5-stars?

There is a difference between the situations but I’m curious about the varying degrees of desperation between first/second windows.

Say what? The spring portal won't let you go to another SEC team. A stroke of genius by Sankey to discourage the mercenaries from leaving for the cold Arctic teams. Not many takers apparently.

None of this has anything to do with the title or question in the OP. It also doesn’t have much to do with the quote you pulled.

The question is, how much NIL did both
Schools agree to for both players
.

It’s simple.

Then be more specific. As of now, you asked?

"Curious how the first portal window is compared to the second portal."

The 2nd portal it doesn't happen. I have no idea how anyone can say with any certainty that one window is more expensive than another.

Damn, I did not expect you to be this obtuse.

Is that really what I asked in the title and first sentence?

You’re reading way too far into it and follow up with this gem.

Try sitting the next eight or so posts out and let a functional bama/ole miss fan answer the OP which states:

I think he was thinking you were being obtuse by not expressing your question with specificity

So far those people haven't shown up. Are you certain you aren't digging for gold in mud? It is the rant.

In the meantime, it's good to know what bothers you most.

Because I’ve previously dragged you through this mud you speak of, you can choose to be paranoid about me asking relevant Alabama posters a simple question.


Tuscaloosa, where are you?

More expensive at certain positions like DT because some teams are desperate for players. Damonic Williams, who just committed to OU, was demanding more NIL money than any of LSU's current staff or players other than Kelly make in a year. More money than our All-American LT Will Campbell, who is a projected Top 5 pick in next year's draft. More money than Quinn Ewers at Texas. And OU paid him some amount above what LSU and Texas were willing to pay.

I'm thinking the desperation curve goes up as well in the spring portal if what one poster, here says is correct.

Bama and Ole Miss got in early on what appear to be two good prospects. If they came in cheaper than the 1.5, then they may prove it's a good idea to get in on the hot prospects early on.

Meanwhile BK is looking at now having to get less expensive DTs from go5 schools.

The problem with the numbers thrown out in all NIL funding posts is they are rooted in valuations, assumptions, and hear say. The biggest non-starter though when trying to determine factual numbers, is all three parties involved (the player, the NIL provider, and the school) benefit from inflated numbers.

The player has his ego stroked and increased value, the NIL provider gets more market exposure the bigger the investment, and the school appears to be a bigger player in the NIL market place with larger NIL deals.

I would not be surprised at all if actual NIL funding is a fraction of what everyone seems to think it is.
