2023 Samson Okunlola 2.0 - Commits to UM12/15

[ben]

That's no way to talk about @RVACane

 

[Ghandi]

Cmon man, Nobody here knows anything definitive on that front and whether or not Miami or Florida is offering more

no record of Miami not playing the game as well, so we can try to steer clear from “UF offered more” every single time

Ok.

 

[Lokest]

Pay that man his money.

**** uf leave them with nothing

 

[Kjdcanefan]

He needs bread.

UF is ponying up the NIL.

That’s as simple as I can put it.

I really wish finance classes were mandatory across 4 years of high school. If this kid wants to go to UM, but goes to UF because there is more money and he needs money..I cant think of many problems a high schooler or a family has that our offer of NIL wouldnt alleviate. I get chasing the bag and greed rules the world. . .but ****.

That’s as simple as I can put it.

I'm having a hard time believing that Samson will have a better opportunity to make money in Gainesville over Miami.

Is the difference in deals substantial?

That response was in reference to Fletcher I believe

Oh I'm sorry. Then replace Samson with Fletcher and it's still true.

I was referring to Fletcher.

Okunlola has been done for a long time now.

This is subjective of course, but in my opinion it is substantial.

If Miami can get close, I think he would strongly consider.

Agreed.

I know we have guys on this board who are closer to these situations than the national guys a lot of times, but I will say this.....it's VERY rare that the national guys are just completely blindsided out of left field like what happened with Cormani. It happens, but it's very, very rare. Almost always, something leaks, from somewhere. And the fact that not a single national guy, or even the guys at uf and fsu, respectively, have blinked on Samson and Bain makes you think Miami is in the driver's seat. We'll see when all the ink dries. No matter what, this is a fantastic class for Mario. But the portal pillaging needs to start soon. We need a top ~5-6 HS class AND a Top 10 portal class to turn this thing around.

I don’t know the exact figures, but I believe they added onto the existing offer last weekend in the hopes of preventing a Miami visit at all. Hence why I said they reek of desperation.

Miami hasn’t even countered and they raised the price. Now if he visits, that just means we’re willing to play the game. We won’t just let him visit to visit.

I’m sure UF is still trying to lock him up by any mean$ nece$$ary.

Really really really hope you’re right

 

[hoops156]

not super worried about RB. CJ is on board. it's a dime a dozen position imo. we really need Samson

Florida might technically offer more money but I’m pretty sure it’s not guaranteed. They’re using the A&M method of doing things. Last year I mentioned reading a NIL contract at A&M and it was like looking at an old cell phone contact

 

[TheU1984]

Cribmaster, when you dropping your final picks on Samson, Bain and Fletcher?

 

[Bender]

Agreed.

It cant be understated that Mario is pulling a Top 10 class whilst being ineligible for bowl play.
