Obscene. This will never get paid out in full.

These aren't contracts; these are provisional "assurances". Yet they continually get reported like it's a contract that was signed between the Detroit Lions and a free agent with legally binding terms and conditions. He may get paid, he may not. The whole situation is messed up.

I agree with the posts saying I'd go after known quantities at QB. Dillon Gabriel, Cam Ward. Rourke, Howard types. Feels way safer. I guess when you have unlimited money it doesn't matter if you swing and miss, you just pay another kid so.

And Brosmer.
 


Crazy money. That being said - wish we could have given the kid 15 million.

I really dont think the numbers will go down though. I was at the LSU / Bama game and that is a different world than what we got going on. Different galaxy.

So was Dylan raiola. Evaluating hs QBs is nowhere remotely near an exact science. I’d go the Kurtis rourke route every time if given the chance

Raiola and Nebraska are a weird situation because I think he has a close family member on the staff or working for the AD. I take your point though

I don't think so either. And that's so cool, I wish I would have made it to an SEC game at either Bama or LSU before I moved overseas. Someday. You're right, it's a difference universe.

His uncle is the line coach.

His father is in the Nebraska "Ring of Honor".

And even with that history, he first committed to tOSU, then flipped to Georgia before finally signing with Nebraska, and only after Carson Beck announced he was returning.

All that after going to 4 different high schools.

Expect him to transfer...he's a head case.
 



Rumor has it Portnoy/Barstool has ponied up a chunk of the cash

It’ll be pretty funny if he is just kind of ok


College football is maybe stupid. This is a higher number than the cap hit number of multiple nfl starters. Including;
Baker mayfield
Tua
CJ stroud
Sam Darnold

They’ll just buy a new one.
 



Hmmm...I wonder if he'll start as freshman? :)
Imagine being the coach with all these guys at different positions getting paid silly money.
You wanna keep coaching? You better keep playing the guy who is getting paid the most.
Not doing so is a quicker path to getting fired than losing.
