Yeah, its time for Jonah to make a decision on 1 sport before the decision is made for him.

I know it’s not happening but would love to see Biles in a second year under Muschamp.

Best pure football player in the program. Agree, but man he should go pro even if he's 3rd rounder due to size.

It's free agency every year. Did anyone ever imagine this happening?

Absolutely. I imagined it 20+ years ago when Jeremy Bloom was fighting his fight against the NCAA for endorsements he earned as a professional skier, where endorsements are business as usual, and the NCAA telling Colorado they had to either kick him off the team, convince him to give up his skiing endorsements, or face punishment from the NCAA enforcement arm. They decided to tell Bloom he had to give up his endorsements, so Bloom went to the NFL.

It was a completely unfair system where a normal college student could earn money from social media engagement but college athletes could not. The problem is, as I reiterated over and over again to all the people who railed about the unfair system, is that there's no effective way to distinguish between legitimate income from name, image, likeness and income from people who wanted to compensate players for playing for their favorite team. There still isn't.

The Alston decision completely tore down the barrier between athletes and earning compensation from third parties, thus ushering in the current era. If the Supreme Court was going to strike down NIL rules for antitrust purposes, they for sure were going to strike down eligibility issues regarding transfers. Other sports had done away with transfer restrictions several years prior.

Thus, the current free agency market.

At this point college sports is being run by court decisions, with all the chaos that entails. And there's no other option until there's some kind of federal legislation. Whenever that might occur in our current political climate. And guess what? Whatever comes out of congress we're not going to like, either, because that's how this stuff works.

Throw two bags at Biles.

what is the report on Tyler Atkinson? are coaches happy with him and his development?

That will be an interesting decision ... he won't likely return for close to same the NIL deal, if returns to Texas.

No dead money on the roster

We have dead money on our OL coach but I’m sure he will get another raise at the end of the year for back to back years or crappy OL play

I can’t see a world where Cooper is offered more money. He hasn’t played much this year. I wouldn’t be surprised if he enters the portal.

Hasn't been mentioned yet but I hope like heck we're able to hang onto Dia Bell. That young man's potential looks sky high
