Elijah might be named HC to explicitly curtail such DL losses

I'm still not completely clear how these deals are structured if the school can't be directly involved. Is it a monthly payment? Obviously a lump sum up front would be a recipe for disaster. If a kid transfers they simply cancel the contract? Are they all "at will" contracts that either side can back out of at any time?

Until NIL is structured and regulated, it will always be unclear. NIL is pay for play right now. It never was intended to be that

But can a contract be tied to a particular school so long as the school itself isn't a party to the contract? (Wink wink.) I'm thinking no but it's not clear how the donors can protect their investment otherwise. I'm sure they'll find a way, the rich didn't get rich by throwing their money away.

NIL isn’t supposed to be contingent on signing with a specific school. That’s straight up pay for play which is supposed to be illegal. NCAA screwed up when they let it go to the courts. They had a chance to regulate it

McKinley has repeatedly gotten worked this season by a bunch of smallish white dudes who won't even be playing college football.

There certainly are some hypocrites around here, but McKinley won't be the subject matter that outs them.

Beware yourself. You've had some pretty shifty takes of your own that you'll have to answer for in the coming years.

Watch if McKinley will take his last official visit, for the A&M game.

Zero factor, I can assure you. He's not wired like that.

I mean, for his sake, I hope it’s at least a factor and he’s wired a little like that

Cannot help but get a Sopsher/ Chris Davenport vibe on this one.
I don't think i have seen one report of his having a dominant game this year.

You need to have NIL money or a top notch coaching staff that will put the players into the NFL. Do we have either?
