Parker Jefferson commits!!!!

FWIW, based solely on YouTube highlights (100% shooting percentage) he's the most athletic recruit Johnson has signed.
 

Ben getting all these kids to commit.

Either A) that keeps him around longer than needed or B) they hit the portal when he’s fired 😭😭

Can’t figure out if I should be excited for the class or not lol.
C) they hit the portal as soon as they're worth money
 





Who cares. Another fringe prospect. Beat out real power 5 teams then it's a good one. If you are beating out mid majors and other terrible power 5's then the kid is probably fine, but no one to get excited about.
I won't get excited for a recruit until you are beating out Mich State, Ohio State, UNC, Arizona, etc.

Not to say this kid won't be good, but be honest, he is coming here because he knows he will play and likely hopes he can move on in a season if he does well. Most likely sitting everywhere else.
Per Doogie, USC told him weeks ago "we're good" on him and didn't particularly want him.
 












In the NIL era, does anybody know if the players start getting paid when they sign an letters of intent? If so, isn't that a binding contract?

I am pretty sure they don’t get anything until they are on campus, registered for classes, and meet a predetermined criteria for payment. Otherwise there would be examples of high school players taking the money but not attending. Now you have a mess to deal with in trying to recover the $.

A prime example of why I don't frequent this forum very much anymore.

Pretty sure the payment agreements are determine by the collective and spread throughout the Academic year. Would be pretty rare to get anything before they are enrolled and attending classes but it could happen for some of the highly sought recruits that command big bucks. Wasn't there speculation that some recruits were demanding compensation for visits.
