Tyler Baron DE, J George WR, Xavier WR, and NIL walk into a bar…

[Dwinstitles]

Always a possibility when you’re pushing the line. Could end up without a chair when the music stops.

I imagine he has representation. He will get paid.

Pay him

Get him on board we need him

Pause

Lane Kiffin never was a terrible recruiter yall need to quit the cap

I’m not going to dig it up but he wasn’t great. I also don’t know what quitting the cap means. So, yeah

He wasn't terrible, but he underwhelmed at several schools prior where the recruiting does itself.
And I also dont know what cap means.

My good sir, “Quit the cap” means, quit the lie, or false narrative. Hope I cleared that up.

Lane had highly ranked clases at USC and UT.

USC recruits itself even with Helton the SOCal 5* players usually stayed home.

 

[The U is back to work]

If he goes to Ole Miss I’d like to know also how they are under 85 scholarships

 

[MiGonzCane]

That’s the new game. You’ll need to basically re-recruit and fill in your roster every year. Which raises the point, can we sign Bain and stud recruits to multi-year NIL deals or are these all 1yr agreements?

In reality they are free agents every semester

What's the latest on this guy? Is he holding out hoping one of Ole Miss, USC, or Miami up their offer.

 

[Cribby]

He wants wild money lol. Not sure he’s worth that even though he’s a good player.

That explains it. I'd rather us go after Ben Roberts to get an additional DT.

Cribby ! The has returned.

Do we really need another DE or would they rather have another DT?

 

[JayCane20]

I feel like we need both but DE is a more pressing need.

We brought in 3 portal DTs already. We only have 3 DEs on the roster who have played a snap at the position in college.

 

[Ghandi]

He wants top 5 pick money.

That’s a bridge too far for any program. At this point, his best bet is to hit the supplemental draft in the summer.

state tax in Cali is ridiculous. They would have to offer $$$$$ over any other bidders just to make up that difference. If it's just about highest NIL deal I doubt he ends up there

For certain. I believe it's Ole Miss and Us. Unfortunately for Baron neither Miami or Ole Miss seem to be giving him the number he's looking for which is the reason for the delay. Wondering if another team jumps into the mix. Were he has the advantage there's not much on the market at DE. Are we comfortable enough to go with McConathy, Lightfoot, or Bryant as the 4th DE? Not to mention Mesidor coming off an injury.

Unfortunately there's not much on the market for DE's in the portal currently. Most likely why Baron is trying to hold out for more money. We have brought in 3 DT's, but I'm only confident in two of them with Clark and Barrow.

I would assume he can try to get a draft grade like Ward did. At least that will give bidders a market figure and he would have some leverage. If he is asking for top 5 money then he would need to show that league scouts concur with that assessment.

Why aren’t you confident in Cook? This seems to be the consensus viewpoint on this board. I didn’t pay close attention to spring practice - did he not perform well?
