More sweet than bitter?
It’s been what… 40 years? I thought every band eventually broke up… Isn’t that a musical rule or standard or something? Like the circle of fifths.
Dusty Drapes & the Dusters?
Committed to Texas A&M correct?
Texas A&M must have freed up some more $$$ for this years guys, since so many left
Good luck to him

I’m not usually that guy, but I gotta say, a kid picking TAMU or Miami feels like a red flag at this point knowing what we know about what Prime wants
Call it sour grapes or whatever, but I feel like kids who pick those two schools aren’t necessarily looking for what most other programs are offering. Good luck to them and hope they find success, but feels like they’re looking for a different experience and goal than say an Alabama or OSU (and now CU) offers

If I see aTm, Miami or Oregon I'm assuming the player was shopping for the best deal.
No one should use that to insult a guy, though. In my own career, I have frequently picked the opportunity which paid the most. We're simply not going to get many of those guys. The guys we will get a ton of are the ones who are making an early career choice based on where they believe will provide the best mentoring and do the most for growing their market value.
Dude.
Don’t get it twisted with the “does he wanna be a buff” argument. I’m just saying I have no problem with losing a kid to those schools bc I don’t think that’s what Prime is looking for and he has stated as much many times. Square peg/round hole and all that
I expect more from you
Sigh
It was always unclear whether McCall was even being recruited here, he only gained traction because he was liking CU tweets but he likes a ton of tweets and everyone's intrigued by what's going on over here. And he wasn't even playing the recruiting game for whatever reason, there was nothing on him between entering the portal and committing to A&M and I didn't see smoke with any school. If a guy is really being recruited here, he usually receives several follows over a day or two, recruiting takes everyone with this staff, that never happened here. Can't really even call it a loss besides that we need Safety help and he was a talented safety out there. Safety is Kelly's position so you hope he has something up his sleeve.
What kinda corner are we talking about here? As far as best cover corner, I don't think I've seen anyone better in my time as Prime, Champ was awesome too. If you can cut half the field off, you certainly don't suck. Probably not a right or wrong answer to it.
How do we know that Oregon, Miami and aTm have more NIL opportunities? It seems generally assumed, but I'm not sure of the source of those assumptions.
Rumor mill is that those are the 3 which have pushed the market.
Understood. It just seems like the rumors about bad CU fans that circulate in nebraska. If you say it enough times with enough conviction, it becomes true.
For sure it's only rumors. There are going to be exceptions which made my statement unfair to some guys. Also, there are other programs which have driven the market such as USC and there's been a lot of talk this year about Louisville getting aggressive. Others.
Edit: Since you brought up Nebraska, the chatter from their fans is that they were organized and ready to buy their new coach all the talent he wants. Since it hasn't materialized, I have to wonder if Rhule isn't into that approach, prospects aren't that into Nebraska, their fans over-embellished, or a combination of all that.

My money’s on over embellished.
