He can’t stay here now. He’ll be brutalized (rightfully so, IMO) for any and every mistake he makes do to the way his group handled this. Bush league through and through.

His family will hear a ton of Boos this upcoming season. Not sure they are ready for it.
Curious as to who picks him up.

GO VOLS

This same fan base suffered through a decade plus of buying football coaches on the cheap as well as years of futility with lower level basketball hires, always begging to open the pocketbook up and get a big name (with big paycheck) coach. Now, we are wanting to go cheap at our most important position? Replace Nico with whom, and what are your savings? You don’t know, because only the schools/collectives, the players, and the IRS (hopefully) know how much these guys are making. Yet, with non-existent knowledge you want to manage the team’s payroll. Nico has good athleticism and elite arm talent. His processing speed, OL (passpro, at least), and WRs were substandard last year. It’s Heupel’s job to make him better. I guarantee you Josh doesnt want him leaving the team five months before the season. We shouldn’t be encouraging it either. This outrage is silly.

He is not a big time QB. Finished ninth in QB stats last year just in the SEC. That's not $2 million dollar performance.

Running Nico means bringing in something like the following: The Nate Peterman who started in the Swamp that one time, JG, who never really got it done, Quiten Dormady who never had it, never will, Will McBride, did that guy ever start? Keller Chryst, Lord Almighty! Maurer, Bailey, and Shrout Oh My! BJ Coleman, Nick Stephens and Matt Simms? I can't make these names up, but I don't ever want to go back down that list of names again. Please pay Nico what ever he wants, and O-line, please give Employee #8 more time to operate back there in the pocket already.

Bruh, I get Nico.had a terrible offensive line at times.....but what the hell has he done that makes you think he can go pro in 1 year?

Or he sits 3 games in because he wants 500k more to actually dress out? Where does it end?

Because he'll get drafted on potential, as Milton did, then the clock really starts for his career.

It's that simple. He'll have to prove himself there and not in college.

Let's say you are the decision maker. Would you renegotiate with Nico right now, or move on and let someone else pony up more money?

I understand that he's played one full season as a redshirt freshman. Has he done enough in your mind to earn more at this time? How do you feel about the timing of this during spring camp?

He can no longer be trusted. He’ll run out of bounds in a critical moment again. His teammates can’t trust him and he’s not even been worth what we already paid. This is an easy decision.

He's got one season and he will declare for the draft. What's he going to do to his next team that might be an issue? Leave after next year? Given.

Unless he shows much more than he did in 2024, he would be an UDFA.

Nico was t even really in the top half of SEC QBs-much less the country

We won in spite of Nico, not because of him-leaning on a great RB and a very decent defense.

I mean he was a first year starter-but so were a few other SEC QBs who lapped Nico by the end of the season.

Didn't Nicos little bro just sign at Arky? Pops needs to go bother them some and leave us alone

If you pay him, everybody's going to pull the same s***. He is not that good of a quarterback. Matter of fact, we need to send him packing right now. The fact that he tried to pull this is going to be poisoned to the whole team. It's going to be a distraction that we do not need to hear for the rest of the summer and the rest of the season
