They will tell him everything he wants to hear. Does he go to the highest bidder? Scholarship limits are not a worry. Will they accommodate him even if it means someone on the team has to go?

We don't know the real story of why he entered the portal. We will sit tight and wait to see what he ultimately decides to do.

He said he wants to take care of his mom. We need a Gopherholer to win Powerball. So that you can piss away money on silly stuff like NIL.

That sucks for us, happy for his family if he now gets them out of a not safe place and he gets to go to a top 10 team
 



Well, there you go.

Nike can legally pay Irving a primary income of whatever it wants, and pretend it's a NIL deal. Pay-for-play, already here.

Nike and Oregon tampered with a player on our roster, telling him they'd get him $$$ if he went in the portal and transferred. Is my wild guess. I have no proof of anything.

Should be against the rules, to induce it like that. How the hell would you prove it, vs the player choosing to want to leave of their own accord? 🤷
 


He was electric and ground it for us last year, so I can't do anything other than wish him the best!
 




I guess we now have biological evidence that 13-lined ground squirrels and ducks see the same thing when observing Markeesus irvingii, the Dominant Backfield Runner in its natural habitat.

Good luck to him from here. At least not in the B1G...
 




The Pac12 is perfect for his game, IMO.

How many of these deals are legit as laid out by the recruiters? These aren’t like professional sports contracts. If you don’t produce, or get hurt, the tap could be shut off. Be cautious. Pay your taxes. I’m getting old, as I can think of a million ways deals like this could go south. I hope Bucky (and other players doing this) have somebody very trustworthy looking over their affairs. It would be so easy to take advantage of kids if they’re left to deal with it themselves (or leave it to their agent). Getting paid is nice. But setting yourself up for future success is so much more important. Hopefully he found a place where he is getting both.
 



Hate to see this but can't blame the kids. One of their goals is to make the NFL ... now they can get more money than a late round NFL draft choice shopping around colleges.
 

I’m all in favor of college athletes getting paid, this NIL system is not the answer though. It’s taking us down the MLB rabbit hole of inequity.

Hasn't this already been the case pretty much forever?

The college football playoffs has been around for 8 years now. Alabama, Clemson, Ohio St, and Oklahoma make up 21 of the 32 appearances.
 





As we say in Oregon…FTD. Not talking flower delivery.
