re: lets be real, someone offers you 1mil as an 18year old you sign as fast as possible
Posted by RickQuick on 12/4/24 at 1:34 pm
It’s the image, “I am a millionaire”. Time to get gold chains and a $200k sports car.
If I’d been offered that as an 18 year old, and the next guy offered me $200 more, I’d have gone with the money. When you can’t explain the difference (or see it all as the same) money always wins.
Now, if I...
re: Daniels has to be following his old qb
Posted by RickQuick on 12/4/24 at 10:18 am
I feel this is 100% agent driven, and from that perspective it is just smart business. Other WRs out there prolly getting more with less production.
How many of us look at Glassdoor? Sadly, the portal is the college football equivalent of that....
re: Kelly won’t be fired, but staff shake ups need to be forced on him

WR coach has not done a very good job. Wayyyy too many drops, which are drive killers. I’d bet half of our unsuccessful drives include at least one drop. ...
re: Will Campbell discusses Players Meeting with Reporter. Video link from “X” site in comment

When things don’t go right, just like all of us, people start to blame one another. Pretty soon Joe figures out Bob has a weakness, and he starts trying to do his job and half of Bobs. That puts Joe out of position, doesn’t make Bob any better, and leaves gaps and holes.
By one player trying to d...

re: Repeat after me Nuss is being asked to do too much.
Posted by RickQuick on 11/13/24 at 4:47 pm
While he is being asked to do a lot due to no running game, guys are running routes and waiting on the ball. 2 open guys short and he will wait to push it 20 yards to a receiver that is tightly covered. Him not recognizing coverages and getting the ball out quickly is a huge part of the problem.

re: Rattler missing wide open guys all day

After a couple starts, things will slow down for him. Too fast right now to make 3-4 reads.
But he has thrown some bullets....
re: Is it true a regulation was just passed : colleges themselves can now spend millions NIL?
Posted by RickQuick on 5/27/24 at 9:22 am
They didn’t have much of a choice. Collectives give boosters the ability to circumvent the entire athletic department. If they decide that they don’t like a player for any reason, they can refuse to pay (or over pay) whether the coaches want them or not.
Also, donations to collectives don’t go t...
re: Will Jimbo ever get another Power 5 HC job?
Posted by RickQuick on 1/26/24 at 10:18 am
Just an assumption, but his buyout more than likely contained an offset clause. That means that any pay he got from another coaching job would count against his buyout. While money from other things necessarily wouldn't go toward offset (tv appearances, NIL, booster paid appearances, etc) the salary...
re: Modern day recruiting is exhausting
Posted by RickQuick on 1/18/24 at 3:24 pm
Can't imagine the toll it takes on coaches. You spend all fall recruiting HS kids, then after the season you have to recruit half your team back plus re riot players leaving other teams in the portal, then you have to recruit from teams who lost head coaches. Finally, you get to spring ball! Then yo...
re: It is so obvious that DeBoer was Alabama's first choice.
Posted by RickQuick on 1/14/24 at 12:59 pm
So many ambiguous words these guys use. They talk to agents, get parameters, then make an offer to the agent. They interview over Zoom. They make a decision.
THEN the AD Calls the coach. And guess what? That coach is the first one he called (directly) because the rest of them have been calling in...
re: NCAA has said
Posted by RickQuick on 12/24/23 at 5:35 am
I can see the day when a student who does not get a scholarship files a class action against a state university that gives athletic scholarships. The point would be that this is an educational facility, and sports are not education.
Not proclaiming to know the future or like it, but it is bound t...
re: How do you feel if Jayden skips bowl?
Posted by RickQuick on 12/13/23 at 11:19 am
I realize that a lot of folks get ticked off a players skipping these bowl, but it is a sign that you are developing players. Just the publicity around who is going to play sends the message to recruits that we can get you prepared for the NFL....
re: Elko going for Denbrock is hilarious
Posted by RickQuick on 12/7/23 at 6:56 am
PR stunt to let boosters know that he is trying to improve their school, while weakening an opponent. It also reminded them what they were gonna have to pay for a top tier OC, so now a guy at $1.5 million seems like a bargain.
Well played, sir. Well played....
re: The long term impact of NIL and transfer portal on high school recruiting?
Posted by RickQuick on 12/7/23 at 6:52 am
Eh, hard to say. It is going to split college football into 2 tiers. There will be a few HS standouts that get plucked by top tier, and the rest will go to feeder schools for a year or two, with hopes of transferring to the top tier school at some point.
Its going to mean that top tier coaches a...

re: Jayden Daniels
Posted by RickQuick on 10/10/23 at 10:44 am
Not trying to lower expectations, but Daniels is ripping off run against teams with maybe 2 players that run 4.5 40's. In the NFL, that's an average DB. Those runs don't happen against 6-7 players as fast as he is.
He is going to have to improve speed of reads and deep ball accuracy (lots of unde...
re: Any video of Will Campbell throwing the Miss St helmet?
Posted by RickQuick on 9/17/23 at 8:32 am
I would say that, after the penalty that took the touchdown off the board, Campbell started beating himself up mentally. Those things get in your head and circle around. No matter how many people tell you it's ok, that thought still sits there. Many times it causes players to want to make.up for it,...
re: Moving forward, Kelly must ensure we get 2 cupcakes to start the year
Posted by RickQuick on 9/17/23 at 8:25 am
I disagree. By playing a tough opponent you get to see where you are, and give your team a reality check.
LSU lost to FSU because of defensive miscommunication and the players not trusting one another. They seem to have fixed that before SEC play began. If they had started off playing NSU, would...
re: Tigerbait357 any update on HVL?
Posted by RickQuick on 4/20/23 at 7:52 am
The #1 pick in the WNBA this year will make about $75k. The highest salary is around $225k. Meanwhile rumors abound that Angel is pulling down mid six figures in NIL money.
I understand why her dad is interested in the NIL money. She has one year left to earn more off of NIL than she ever would p...
