Recruiting Football Talk VIII

[99Vol]

Arky baseball’s played a light schedule so far, hard to say but hope Ugga azz stomps them tonight…

 

[Mrpeabody8888]

Yea he would have been super nice during the winter…he’d be coming in never seeing a practice or our playbook…it just doesn’t make any sense another than this was planned by Nico’s camp all along to force UT’s hand and it’s looking like it backfired

Remember he was at ole miss before Illinois. He won’t be hard to coach up.

 

[VolGee4]

If JH does that he’s a dumb ass…then Jake leaves because what’s that say to him or even Faizon? Zero trust…roll with Jake he’s put in time now give him the experience

Faizon isn’t here. Not sure why he matters.

The staff knows what they have with their QB’s.

 

[volsagain]

Watch Luke Altmyer here. Not saying he’s worth more, but a name to watch.

Probably do need a seasoned backup. Merk got to ahead of any spring transfer. If the offense is truly difficult to pick up and run .

 

[Mrpeabody8888]

Hearing any WRs? I just hope Matthews stays

No, have not heard anything. I know he got paid earlier. Not sure he can get anything better at this point.

 

[MrVolton]

Hubbs now claiming USC has interest.

I’d gladly trade them Nico for their WR coach.

 

[dmwvol12]

It's literally not his fault. Every report I've heard is its his dumb family and agent. Just like with Ricky Gibson.

He’s an adult. It’s 100% his fault. Also speaks volumes about a lack of character. He was a game manager last year.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Who’s responsible for losing sight of @Ulysees E. McGill

I am alive

 

[Vol423]

There are some sharks out there. Reps for other qbs are actively reaching out. “What package can you offer my kid?” Body ain’t even cold yet

The body may as well be cold. If Nico ended up staying and you start him now, you can expect him to try to extort you the night before every big game.

 

[VolsDoc81TX]

Double post.

Are we a baseball school now?

 

[DD4ME]

Return of Gaspipe.

This would be epic bro

Who is the parent org of VQ

Is now hinting next week we target a QB and might pay more than we did Nico. That's thumbing a nose if true.

If Nico is currently making 2million but will only stay at UT for 4million, I’m fine with paying a one year rental 2.5million until Faison gets here in 2026.

Altmyer would not be a backup.

 

[DD4ME]

Lol

 

[vols 30]

Nico Gate?

Everything has to have a title

 

[UTSuave’]

Remember he was at ole miss before Illinois. He won’t be hard to coach up.

Ahhhh….but still huge gamble.just hard to understand he’s literally put his career on suicide.very disgraceful to witness knowing he’s a good,quiet and humble kid. nobody will sit here and say confidently say these actions are coming from Nico it’s not him.this was strategically planned by grown adults

 

[Vol423]

If Nico is currently making 2million but will only stay at UT for 4million, I’m fine with paying a one year rental 2.5million until Faison gets here in 2026.

I'd pull his current NIL deal and tell him good luck finding a place to play.

He already was at 2.5 guess is 3 for new offer which is what we offered Nico in incentives. So bottom line kid turned down 2.5 + 500k incentives to try and get 4 at random college.

 

[Mrpeabody8888]

Nico more likely to play in USC spring game than ours at this point. He is persona non grata at facilities right now.

 

[jakez4ut]

It's not dead but it's wounded . I've just about quit following recruiting. Now probably just wait until fall practice to see who we have on the team. I'm hoping Merk takes the reigns and out preforms what Nico did last year.

Meh. It's worse than the NFL now. At least they have a cap and it's a known when free agency, trades etc..

This is just dumb.

I really don't care. Stay. Go. Either way.

Totally irrelevant. The buck stops with Nico.

[vol4eva]

Will Levis got any eligibility left?

 

[MarcoVol]

Some good news

Going after another QB would be tough when we have Merk, couldn't be good for the QB room either. Unless it was a depth QB, I think you need to roll with Merk.
