I do wonder how long some of this lasts, its kind of the wild west right now with dumb money being thrown around....but one would think eventually it slows a bit once these guys stop seeing any kind of true ROI on buying these guys
It’s one thing when it’s rich boosters and donors trying to get guys to play for their favorite team. It’s a whole new ball game when multimillion dollar corporations are getting involved. What’s a million dollars here and there to them when you could be investing in the next college/NFL superstar.

Isn’t this still a violation of “NCAA” rules if they pay or give a gift to a recruit?

Given how Deion is working with Nick on AFLAC commercials, is there some sort of working agreement whereby after next season, Travis enters the transfer portal and ends up in Tuscaloosa?

Is Deoin still afiliated w/ Barstool?
This is probably partially a troll move and publicity stunt by them
A expensive one but still

Can’t wait to see how this turns out 3-4 years down the road.
NFL teams don’t like drama, and his entire college career is about to more about show business than playing and development.

Not much different than the G Ignite team in the G-League which is made up of young men who don't want to waste a year playing college basketball and feel they can improve their talents playing lower-level pro ball.

Never know. He was OC at a HS in TX where his son was playing.

Your ignorance here is phenomenal.
You realize this is about a guy leaving FSU (a blue blood) to go to Jacksonville St right?
Its basically the poor stealing from the rich, to use your terminology.

Well in those situations you’re still playing against top players/athletes. It’s going to be really interesting seeing NFL evaluators on Hunter if he stays at Jackson St for 3 years. So much talent/skill, but if you don’t see him against top competition, do you really want to draft him in the top 10/15?

Damn Prime got him one in Hunter. This gotta be one of the bigger signing day shockers

if you're signing them up for the long haul sure you could save if you hit it big with a few, but most of these so far have been 1 year deals. Still even over the long haul it doesn't make sense for them, its just purely paying players only now you get to write it off as a business expense.

What is Hunter allegedly going to endorse? If they give him money for nothing then it is a violation.
Wait until somebody gets busted for giving money and claim it was NIL.

They’ll give him some hoodies and he’ll promote the Barstool brand
This is a phenomenal troll job. I love it*
