I think it’s fine in recruiting. Paragraphs are your friend though.Shoulda put this in off topic maybe lmao. Had 3 coffees, couldn't focus on work, and decided to sunshine pump.
Alll of his bluster aside, would they even have the deep pockets necessary to do NIL well. Even if he committed to it, he still might find himself in the second tier.In my opinion, one of the more interesting things about CFB this year is Clemson.
Will Dabo finally relent and use the portal to upgrade his team? He started off at Clemson with some hard times (Clemsoning), but then hit on back to back quarterbacks and great recruiting at other position.
Clemson was also known for effectively using walk-ons and unrated guys. It got them 4 Championship appearances and 2 wins in 5 years.
Dabo hasn't been hitting on the impact recruits lately, and has essentially struck out with QBs.
Will the administration force his hand to use the portal, or will the heat get hot enough to force him to use the portal.
It would be very strange to watch a coach work build up to National Champion caliber, and then regress back down to the middle of the ACC all due to the coaches hubris.
Pretty clear Riley doesn't care much for recruiting outside of QB.Texas has always been all in with resources and they just cant win.
USC im not sold on. They are recruiting nationally and not locking down their home base..oregon has ravished there...its a lil weird but they are a team to watch.
USC deals with some of what we do in recruiting kids in state but not CLOSE to the last of support. Both programs remind me of one in other. NCAA hates both.Riley finally decided to invest in a defense. Im not saying they're an elite team yet, Im saying they will become one. Recruit nationally until you start winning, all of a sudden it becomes a lot easier to get local guys. If USC starts winning, these kids from socal ain't gonna want to live in eugene.
I believe I overstated what I intended to post. I don't think these teams will be dominant these next few years (besides the 2024 miami hurricanes run). I do think these said teams will become dominant once they start getting to and winning big games, because they will start to lock down local talent. I think this year all three will win or at least show serious promise, which will set up a recruiting snowball that won't be stopped.
Wishful thinking bud. C.R.E.A.M and OSU Bama UGA Oklahoma have it and are going to spend it. There's only one reason Jeremiah Smith was catching TDs in Columbus on Saturday instead of Gainesville and it wasn't WR development pedigree.Whats up everyone first post (been a lurker since Ariz had the miami heat avatar).
Obviously the football landscape is changing drastically with the rise of NIL and fall of conferences etc.
There are three teams that have caught my interest so far this year. Miami (obviously), USC, and Texas.
The reason for this is these three schools have turned around their football programs from the bottom up. They hired new coaches committed to winning and invested the resources to allow them to do it. These teams' success so far is not fluff, they are truly setting up to be powerhouses for decades to come.
The reason this has caught my interest is because the common denominator for these teams is their location, dead center in a hotbed of talent.
Once these teams start rolling they will be keeping their top talent home, which will allow them to be succesful, but will also create a ripple effect throughout the college football world.
Not only will these three teams become great again, the teams that leeched their hometown talent will become worse. The days of Alabama, Michigan, Ohio State, Oregon, Clemson, Oklahoma, etc. winning with talent from these three spots will be coming to a close.
When these teams can no longer take the top talent from these three states, they will be relying on "5 stars" from the midwest, northeast, and other less talented areas.
As these three programs rise, the rest will fall, and I am excited as **** for it. A new age of college football is coming and Miami, USC, and Texas are going to dominate it.
We are now, more than ever, ready to lock down the state of Miami. We will keep the 5 stars home. We will have the cream of the crop of the underrated south florida players.
The media is talking about Cam Ward and how he changed Miami for his final year. What the media doesn't know is that we are building a ******* empire. Every step forward we take, the schools leeching off of our mediocrity will take a step backwards. What a time to be a Canes fan.
NIL changes everything. The market in LA and Miami on another level than those ****holes. Theyll still recruit the south at a high level but they won't be winning with cooper, ridley, jeudy etc. anymore. Best part is by the time the ncaa tries to limit NIL (they can't rlly but hypothetically) we will be established enough to not need it anymore.Wishful thinking bud.

We will always need it. It has and always will be about the money. The only reason we surged in 80s and 90s was cause our underdeveloped HS talent was under the radar. The rest of the country didn't want to believe it until we did it again in the early 2000s. Now the whole country raids the state for anyone with a hint of talent. So you gotta pay to get the ballers and evaluate those under the radar guys.NIL changes everything. The market in LA and Miami on another level than those ****holes.

He might just be one of those people who play the “retro vintage” card but in reality they just can’t afford new clothes.
