New info on Nico & His Dad

[Dudleys87]

Why do I get the feeling that if a 30for30 came out he’d be dead broke but dad would be sitting on a pile of cash

 

[OrangeInKy]

One Red flag was Nico could not get many players from Cali or Polynesian decent to come here with him outta high school. None any other time until Moe, a former HS teammate. You’d think he’d have great relationships with a lot of WRs, etc but he didn’t.

I don't think Moe played with him. I don't even think they knew each other well, from what I read.

Him not going to the Manning Passing Academy camp now makes sense

They wouldn't let Big Nic supervise

This isn't directed at you but it's funny we are hearing all this stuff now, it really demonstrates why most Americans have lost all confidence in the press in all forms. If you noticed this, you know it was an open secret among them. If they didn't want to call him out, fine (in the old "if you can't say something nice, say nothing at all" vein) but don't straight up blow smoke up all our azzes with all the puff piece stuff about his leadership and character, etc.

Some of this came out in Dec. I do recall he was being shopped around in Dec. before the national playoffs.

They’d stomp a mud hole in your ass

And then stomp it dry

Nic: “What in the hell do the Mannings know about playing QB?”

I'm talking about the skipping out on NIL obligations and refusal to be an ambassador for the program part.

You should probably take a season off and have some self time;

I mean he didn't really play football in high school. Played 7 on 7 tournaments.

Heupel's evals have been BAAAADDDD.

They'd probably mug you and complain you only had $50 in your wallet.....

There is a Vols camp being held in my town. I know the guy putting it together and I was told Nico wanted $50k just to show up.

Crazy for a guy already making $2.4 mil to ask for that much to come hangout with young Vol fans for a few hours.

It's not like the young man had a lot of time on his hands between school, practice and negotiating constantly with dozens of other programs.

 

[livefaith]

Ohhh we got a bad ass over here

Someone warn the area Waffle Houses that they made need to close at sundown.

Why? Their own self inflicted damage is to the point where there could likely be no market for Nico. I’m all about Karma…and right now it’s on full display. Why in the world would anyone want to waste their time picking a fight with them? Never crossed my mind to fight someone that I’m better off not having in my life. Let em’ go.

Because we know how this kind of thing goes down waaaay too often.

So, all you people know Calhouns#1? For all I know he might be the only guy Chuck Norris is scared of.

Him, Paul Baines and Rod Wilkes. Never forget.

 

[ric1958]

I don`t care about Nico Imaloser. Can`t wait to see our next QB. I hope it is either Merk or GMac.

If true, seems to reinforce the transfer sh$tshow narrative.

Good riddance

Who?

 

[Mccage]

No story here folks. Ya'll just head home and go to bed

Did you check the comic book section?

Nico probably wanted $50K to appear.

Ever consider that Nico's dad may be running interference because Nico, he of the inability to read a defense or find open receivers, might not be capable of the savvy it takes to exist in the real world. Or maybe they are both that way--considering the way this has gone down.

I think the team is more of a team without a prima donna who cannot represent the team off the field for kid events.

A friend was a special ed teacher in Georgia and remarked what a fine person Trevor Lawrence was because she saw how he acted when his high school team visited her special ed class. "It's something you can't teach when a guy goes straight to a special ed kid and starts engaging in conversation and paying attention to them without being prompted." Whoever we end up with I hope for that, because I think that attitude with show to the team--and on the field.

That family is a toxic sludge

 

[DaddyChad]

Starting to think the real reason we've had so many WR transfers is that the WRs didn't like playing with Nico.

Wondered if that also effected who we could bring in via the portal. Players talk.
