Recruiting Forum Football Talk IX

1000%%%%

Two five star tackles. Two year all conference player at guard, starting guard at ND, and three year depth player to take over center. I think the OL is going to be very good and I’m excited.
Im still very much “wait and see” with the OL. I think Heard will be improved, I think Moe and Pendleton will be solid, Sham/Satterwhite idk about, and Sanders will be good, but I definitely think we see some growing pains with him, especially early on

This has nothing to do with our coaches. It's two situations where players with immature and emotionally unstable parents are guiding their kids in terrible directions.

Nico went from a playoff team and making 2 million a year to one of the worst teams in the Big 10 and making half of what he was here. Boo is sadly headed down the exact same path and maybe even worse.
A mentor once told me that money is agnostic - it only accentuates what is already there - for good or bad.

Give an immature kid hundreds of thousands and don’t be shocked if you see some wild stuff.

The problem has never been paying the kids. They are the product, they deserve to be well compensated. It’s better they get paid than a bunch rich old fat guys making seven figures off the backs of these kids.

The issue is that Pandora’s box was opened with little to no guardrails. They are employees. There need to be contracts and collective bargaining that protects both parties.
 
When did this happen?
It was the spring before he committed to us. She was in his recruiting thread 24/7 for a week or two before Freak had to kick her out. It got ugly for a few days at the end with her going at literally anyone and everyone for everything from asking why he transferred HS to paying him great compliments. She was insane.
