Recruiting Football Talk VIII

Pate picked up pieces of the stuff that went down behind the scenes. Basically big money and BOT wanted one guy, university admin wanted another. UNC did a pretty good job of getting everyone on the same page at the end but this doesn’t go well that whole program could unravel from boosters to admin. Reminds me a lot of us moreso of Auburn.

Just glad this kid decided not to go there.

Bump.

Well this one went off the rails far quicker than I would’ve thought

Refuse to get irritated about issues that are inconsequential in the long run. Do the best you can, if you can, to correct the problem and move on. Circumstances around you are never going to be perfect. So, you have to take the good with the bad and be as kind and gentle as you can be.

Romans 12:21
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

so true

Man I hope that's a legit quote from Nico....dude might be burning his own draft stock just from the delusional mindset he's showing after this situation.

Less money
Worse team
Less experienced staff
Less proven OL
Less talented WR room
No running game

But sure, a better situation...I can only assume him & his dad were a bit more fragile when it came to social media and fan comments than we ever realized. Cause UCLA fans are for sure not going to care how good or bad he's playing cause they're not watching anyway.

They are too busy studying.

How did they not vet him enough to know that he is tied up with some 24yo girl who he lets run the show now? I'd feel like a super-clown if I went to bat to hire this guy and he showed up with these shenanigans. . . maybe that's what they want, for media coverage.

Have any of you been to Easter Island and seen a Moai statue in person?

Thank you for posting these. I've been sharing with my wife who's in a challenging work situation and she's frequently commented to me about how much she's needed to hear the message. Turns out she's also sharing them with her widowed sister who just left an extremely toxic work situation and is trying to figure out her next steps for herself and teenager daughter. These posts have truly had an impact far beyond this forum.

When you hit the bottom of the hole, you’ve dug. You might want to stop digging. This has train wreck written all over it, getting my popcorn ready

Maybe he can get the ball to Hyatt.

Hmmmm. Never hear about this.

The New York Giants are excited about the potential of Jaxson Dart, but there's an understanding that he will have to wait a bit before making his debut.

Considering the offense he comes from at Ole Miss, which didn't ask him to go through full field progressions, it's fair to say that Dart has a steep learning curve when getting to the NFL.

No kidding. You cheat on your rich supermodel masterchef wife with a alcoholic trailer park queen with three kids. Your wife dumps you, and you say, "I'm really in a better situation, my ex kept asking me to take out the trash and now I just eat it for diner."

 

[rikberry31]

Well obviously this is stuff the Giants' staff has recently learned. Must have gone to a clinic.

LIsten, when your old, wrinkly butt self lands a 24yo hottie, you do what you gotta do to keep her including letting her take over everything. Duh.

With the new market rate rules imminent, hypothetically could a team make let’s say 1,000 football cards, have a player sign them each, sell them for 100 each and pay the player 100k because that is the “market rate”?

I have a friend that went on a bunch of crazy trips. He went to New Zealand to walk in steps of Gandalf and other exotic places. One was Easter island. He is major league rich. He spent like a week there and I think it cost him like 20 grand. That's a little steep for me, apparently they don't have any Days Inns or Motel 6s there.

I don't know about that but I do believe that it is perfect with in the rules for the player to go to Sonic and order burger and an order of tots, pay with a $10 bill and get $99,990 in change.

Pete Rose can't be voted into Hall of Fame until 2027. They're putting a special committee of 16 individuals together to vote . To get in Rose will have to receive 12/16 votes..

Would have nothing in common with a 24 yo. I have a really really low tolerance for stupidity and drama.
