All I’ll say abt the nico situation is he did not play good enough last year for this kind of drama…19 tds and 5 int’s we could’ve gotten from Gas Pipe if im being honest. Someone somewhere somehow is getting/giving bad advice

My take is i respect those of you who are believing the on3 leak was a nothing burger, but I stand by what i posted even after cooling off. Dick news drop by his team and I think it backfired honestly. Pressure will be even higher for Nico to deliver. It also is worth mentioning that I have heard way more about the backups progress from VQ and others than Nico taking a leap. We.will see, but my confidence in this year is lower than the prior 3. Jmo imo don't taze me.

Hubbs asked a similar question about the lack of talk about Heard. Some said the fact he is at least practicing is good, but that's another to watch. High level dudes getting paid high level dollars (partially by regular level fans) have raised the expectations for themselves in the stadium and in public.

Toss rocks i probably earned em.

Agents and NIL but mostly agents. If cfb doesn’t get a handle on this they’ll lose a large portion of the fanbase. Between this and a madness free March, college sports are losing their magic. Take away the love fans and alumni have and all that’s left is an inferior product to pro leagues.

I don’t think Nico is going anywhere or that he even intends to but this and every other agent pulling this on fanbases around the country damages enthusiasm and support.

People have said this for years and the sport is only getting more popular.

You guys must be doing something right with your picks. I just saw a pair of these on a secondary sales group page on Facebook for $150 per.

Yeah I think we pick awesome barrels but I’m also biased. I saw one guy had them for sale before he even pulled out of our parking lot. Ridiculius

Hate that stuff. Not saying I haven't overpaid for a bourbon before or moved one over MSRP, but that's the kind of behavior that rubs me the wrong way. Not even trying it first, just trying to be the first to move it.

Interesting. Age? 4-6?

We scored these SP (Buffalo/Turkey juice). My lady won a OKI 16 yr in a lottery that’s also the same Buffalo/Turkey juice

Getting jealous of you people. I’m trying to expand my bourbon horizons and try something different every 2-3 months. My go to presently is Woodford Reserve Double Oak…have to sneak something in the $100+ area past the missus.

I really hate to get into all the NIL stuff but it is what it is. Star players or just key players on every team have the ability to derail any hopes of an entire fan base. Good, bad or indifferent that is just where we are at this time and under this system. You can't blame the player and you can't blame the schools but you can blame a system that in its design encourages total unrest every year in every sport. Loyalty to a school and or a fan base is a thing of the past, all this is now is the minor leagues on steroids. If you're not loyal to us how can you expect us to be loyal to you. If you go...... bye, if you stay will this same thing happen next year. All the fans can do is wait until the season starts and cheer for whoever puts on the Orange.
