Money talks, bud

He is, but hard to turn down Nike money

 

[ACamp1900]

The committed until the last second thing never fails to piss me off,… and it’s always a defensive stud seemingly

 

[Huntr]

I bet he would have picked ND if they hadn't let that roster profile leak.

 

[Some Irish Bloke]

So, who's got some neat travel plans in 2023? Care to share?

 

[pumpdog20]

LOL... the recruiting beat absolutely suck at their job, or are absolutely brilliant at it. Either way, they don't deserve customers for this gross reporting fail/click bait.

 

[Blazers46]

It's hard to compete against Nike, mate.

Just compete is all I want.

 

[Pops Freshenmeyer]

I agree but I think the powers at be could care less as long as we are somewhat relevant.

Like, it's totally fine with me if ND doesn't want to join in on these tactics. But why are you swimming in the same pool?

 

[NDMatt91]

It's hard to compete against Nike, mate.

Surely ND has a plethora of millionaire alumni and boosters, right? Who's the wealthiest living ND alum?

They didn’t become millionaires by throwing money at high school kids.

Don't be an intellectually dishonest dolt.

His scumbag father probably guilted him into taking the money to help the family instead of having the kid choose where he wanted to go

Pete Sampson said it best

"If Oregon is involved with anyone, watch out"

Said it well before Dante -- has said it since.

Oregon is absolutely slinging $

 

[Dale]

Seriously, his mom did NOT look happy and seemed on the verge of tears. Crowd didn't seem too thrilled either.

Crowd was awkwardly quiet.

Mom just made millions and still disappointed. Says a lot

Bags of money have always been the best recruiter. That it can be done "legally" now only makes it moreso.

 

[Southside Sully]

Phil Knight gonna be tough to top in NIL era

 

[SouthSideChiDomer]

If we don't want to play in the NIL game, we should just join the Ivy League. Maybe then our administration can have a trophy to show alums.

 

[IrishMoore1]

Mom not looking that thrilled.

Notice how the cheering was less when he switched to the Oregon hat

These type of kids with the fakeout and drama never pan out.

 

[Domina Nostra]

Nike is the only one that can spend the money without lying when they claim that it's and NIL investment. Everyone else is just pretending it is, and literally paying millions of dollars to be fans.

I wish UA shoes didn't suck, because we could be a flagship for them.

 

[Meatloaf]

A top 10ish class that didn’t move the needle much either way was the norm under Kelly. Now it seems the ceiling under NIL. To be clear I’m not blaming Freeman as I think he put in the work- but there’s only so much you can do with an administration that’s content to passively sit by and wait for a toothless NCAA to fix this shit

I would be happy if ND and the rest of FBS left the B1G and the SEC to do their own thing. Ecstatic, even.

 

[NDty9]

Wowwwww…. Driskell lighting him up right now. Saying Bowen told everyone last night , he was committing to ND

 

[calvegas04]

No coffee for the ND staff

 

[SaltyND24]

Mom not looking that thrilled.

Mom definitely was positively shocked when he picked the ND hat up. I'm not putting anything on his mom after that reaction...

 

[Dale]

 

[Jiggafini19Deux]

Hat switch = Peyton didn't get the message

 

[IrishJacks]

Driskell just said Bowen was on a zoom call with all the commits last night and told them he was coming to ND.

Man, this is way too personal for a person you don't even know.
