Another QB who signed last month with the Ducks just entered the portal. They are losing a lot of guys
Seems legit
Don't do this. Please don't

A valuable life lesson about corporate America. Proof NIL is working.
Well SEC commissioner more or less told everyone if the SCORE Act isn’t passed multiple conferences look at breaking away because theres no enforcement on what he calls money laundering
This is the most rich thing I’ve ever read. SEC fam complaining about “rule breakers”.
Unless 14 secsecsec teams get into the playoff, amiright
Might wanna tread carefully there Michigan
Let’s not pretend like if BIG 12 or G5 was saying this everyone wouldn’t be agreeing. The Wild West money throwing, constant tampering, etc is out of control. Also last I checked it was the Big 10 calling for 24 teams not the SEC.
Great mentality, but what did he build at Alabama? Is he talking about the skill set he built for himself as an individual?
I assume he means his legacy of waiting his time being Saban’s last QB that didn’t leave when he could have and playing for the university that recruited him. He’ll always Saban’s last Bama guy so to speak. He was loyal to the very end.
Sidenote: His injuries were clearly much more serious than thought. Apparently he lived on crackers and noodle soup before the Auburn and SECCG due to pain.

Honestly, I find this hilarious. When the SEC was paying people under the table all was well but now that everyone else can do it too it’s suddenly money laundering. What a hypocrite. (That the commissioner, not you Pharaoh). Side note - zero SEC have even made the championship game, much less win a championship, in the NIL era…and I’m sure that has nothing to do with his rhetoric.

For note: Georgia has won two titles in NIL era. As far as under the table pay I think that’s been long established that multiple teams were doing that. These examples how been talked about numerous times. The idea it was only the SEC is hilarious. USC, Duke, UNC, Arizona, UCLA, etc say hi.
I don’t actually.
I wouldn’t. 24 teams is stupid.

Most schools didn’t really have collectives up and running until the 2023 teams were formed. For example, per 247 the 2022 Georgia team had 4 portal additions; their 2023 team had 1 additions. That is not really the NIL / Portal era.
There might have been one offs here and there but the SEC in total was well ahead of everyone else in terms of paying people under the table.

Right but usc, Miami, and others got in trouble. No one is saying others didn't do it, we know they did. The issue is the big sec schools never faced real penalities like the other schools. Once mark emmert got into the NCAA it was game on( I'll let everyone figure out what school he came from and who his good friend was Alabama case spotlights Emmert, Saban friendship https://share.google/vStJBtDtubmh0NUHG)
Did the NCAA ever actually investigate this? No they didn't and it was all known.

Did bama or lsu ever actually get investigated for players selling autographs? Nope because the dude was "disassociated" and kept on doing it. How was he selling autographed things from players and game worn items? He got them for free? We believe that?
