Is there any concern or comment regarding the OL players that get no recognition (so no $$$) yet are the ones that allow the 'stars' to be famous and recognizable? They figure the qb will just use their extra cash to by them isotoners. Saul good Quote Link to comment

Huckleberry Muhammad Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 As long as they tweak it so abuses are minimized and so that the pay is not affected by performance, as in point shaving, I'm for it. But... watch out what you wish for. 1 Quote Link to comment
That.1.Dude Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Imagine if all those players Frost had to kick off from attrition of his first class and the "Mike Riley guys" who were uncommitted got paid to ruin our program and bring us the worse gotd*mn seasons of our lives in regards to Nebraska football in over 60+ d*mn years. F*ck that. Quote Link to comment

F*ck that. *whew* Well.. could be more of that (program trashed). But here at Nebraska even a slight upswing in wins will be appreciated. Thing is, national news media would show little to no interest until Nebraska football is "back." Then the agents for these players will have something to chew on. Quote Link to comment

The national media shows plenty of interest in our program already 1 1 Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Couldn't anyone then pay the players $20k for a signed football? I smell $EC Quote Link to comment

Hard to argue your signature isn't your "name" though, so curious to see how they try and tackle it. Quote Link to comment

You don't think that a higher percentage of good recruits go to SEC schools because....that's also where they're from? 1 Quote Link to comment

I think the issue right now is that the SEC is already doing this at a higher rate than most other conferences. Allowing it to be more above board will give schools that were doing it less a better shot. 1 Quote Link to comment
