To me, if someone is advising him correctly, a few things should be what is being looked at.
1. Where can I showcase my talents the most to make my draft value go up.
2. NIL money, but NIL money is for one year. You have to weigh if I go there, and move down the draft because of that year, but I got more money for the one year NIL deal, I overall lose.
3. OL
4. WR
5. RB
6. Offensive scheme to showcase my talents
I think that folks focus on NIL too much. It's absolutely important, no doubt. But folks of his caliber have the bigger picture to look at. Where the OU might be doing good in my humble opinion, is bringing everyone together like potential WRs coming in, other potential portal type of players to have them all being sold the same music.
I think Miami has a ton to offer in the big picture of a talent like him, if we get a seat at the table and Mario can put it together, who says we don't get a shot at the kid. I mean if you can't sell the OL and what Ward did to position himself in the draft and contrast that to what OU did, then the kid might not be getting good advise by his agents.
We will see, but I think Miami situation has a ton to offer here.
