[MadisonvilleVol]

Contracts and free agency…P5 is now essentially the NFL minor leagues

Without a salary cap

Without a salary cap

there was a salary cap before?

the only thing that changed is the media gets to publicize the amount totals

Only Mentioned that as my reply was comparing to a minor league NFL.

 

[jakez4ut]

Probably negotiated before they entered

exactly.

 

[Tennessee Golfer]

Well that sucks ass.

I’m good with them leaving Athens for Oxford. They were never coming here.

3. JERMAINE BURTON, WR (94)

(Photo: Tony Walsh)
Overall rank: No. 9
Former school: Georgia
The word: Per 247Sports' Isaac Trotter, Burton hauled in 27 receptions for 404 yards and three touchdowns in 2020 before building off that strong debut with an impressive 2021 campaign for the national champion Bulldogs. Burton had 26 receptions for 497 yards and five touchdowns. Burton was Georgia’s second-leading receiver behind freshman tight end Brock Bowers (882 receiving yards). He's the top pass-catcher now available on the open market.

Expect Alabama here.

JT Daniels is average as hell. Who cares where he goes. Burton is good but nothing spectacular.

I won't say you're wrong because I'm not sure about his mindset re pain and potential injury, but Daniels has the tools to be much better than average IMO. He seemed to have regained confidence in his knee in 2021, because his throwing mechanics looked improved vs 2020. I hope he puts it all together, preferably somewhere outside the SEC.

Also, I like Burton a lot but he apparently wants to make a statistical splash next season. That's obviously his prerogative and maybe what's best for him, but not necessarily what's best for his team so good luck in the portal.

There's no salary cap on external endorsement deals. Which is essentially what an NIL is, not a school sponsored payout.

I know an offense he could play in and make a statistical splash…

Alabama….

Not going make statistical splash on yalls team. Uga wins by talent alone. Offense is average at best when you look at how often defense gets them the ball back

 

[berryvol]

This is a big get for bama. They’re losing a TON at WR this year. The rich stay rich…

 

[PlanetVolunteer]

Are you kidding? He wins a title with UGA and goes to Bama?

Kids these days are weird

 

[ACvol3]

I wonder what his reason for leaving was

 

[EdEcEko77]

I wonder what his reason for leaving was

Probably because of how douchey Kirby looks in a visor.

 

[VOLED]

I wonder what his reason for leaving was

I believe I read that he wants to put up some big stats. Not going to do that at GA.

 

[Nashvegas31]

I wonder what his reason for leaving was

UGA offense not friendly to WR especially with Bennett at QB

 

[Bruce Wayne]

I wonder what his reason for leaving was

I have heard he doesn't like Stetson. Idk if that means on or off the field, but I was told he didn't like Stetson and wanted to stick it to UGA so he chose Bama.

On field. Stetson is a game manager and hurts WRs ability to showcase skill set. If your a WR you don’t go to UGA right now. You need go to one of Bama, USCw, Oklahoma, Ole Miss, Texas, TN, Ohio St, Texas Tech(because of new OC from West Ky). Those are the schools that are going to be churning out WR production yearly

Payroll at Bama.

He will prob pass his number of catches from this yr in about 3 games with Bryce throwing to him. He made a business decision. Can’t blame him.
