Play for pay bonanza for student athletes..NIL
The sad thing is they are being offered peanuts in this thing except for a few.

On Wednesday, former Kent State and Central Florida offensive lineman Marcellus Marshall announced his commitment to play for the Golden Gophers.
You are absolutely right no better way to put it!
Agreed. Think about the Penn State QB that is in the portal. He’s a very solid backup, one of the most productive in the country. If something were to happen to Allar, Penn State won’t have their backup now. That affects their entire season.
And you can’t blame the kid. He’s got to find a place to play before the spots/money dries up. That’s the system.
The problem is, they’re also still student athletes and they need to find a new home before the semester starts.
They need to find a way for the players to be fairly compensated, while also limiting their ability to bounce around from team to team so much.

This definately isn't true, has thrown for less than 300 yards, our team alone had 3 guys exceed that easily. Interesting change of pace in small doses is about the best way to describe him.
Will he start for someone next year? Probably, as every team in the nation is chasing portal QBs. But if you do, it is based on potential, not results.
Is there anything stopping schools from doing that now? The schools struggling of course want to make deals, the schools with deep pockets and success will happily offer 1 year NIL deals.
B1G and SEC is continuing to only get deeper pockets compared to the rest of the schools with their TV deals.
NFL has a salary cap which limits these situations, this is more like MLB. If all the best players want to join the same team and the owners want to pay for it, its fair game. What these schools are paying for players is still peanuts compared to professional sports, schools like Texas is not sweating it.

As of this morning yes....same with Colson. I'm not sure either will get many calls above the FCS level.
A large number of our transfers out have already found teams.
And Josh Celiscar decided to go to the temple terrace community college of fast food workers....yikes
Didn’t Trujillo have solid offers out of HS?
I don’t see KZ and Frost being interested in Colson
Celiscar brother was a heck of a football player. He also is a college coach. You would think he would’ve given better advice to his brother. Who knows.

saw the tape he posted and it was hard to see bc it was all aerial from practice but it looked like he has somewhat of a windup
Hopefully you aren't comparing a high schoolers tape to a 3rd pick in the first round of the NFL draft.
True, 10 P4 offers.....I guess maybe if he kept up some of those relationships.....but there are over 300 QBs in the portal right now, plus NSD just ended so most teams picked up a young guy.
BTW, Kitler to Arkansas
Actually, comparing high school tapes with high school tapes. I saw Bortles in high school. It’s funny he got very few offers for the quarterback position coming outta high school, most colleges wanted to move him He got less than Trujillo
I'm a little concerned at how little we're hearing about portal activity, except for last year's guys leaving and finding new employers. I hope Frost's heart is in this. He looked a little shell-shocked at his introductory presser.
