    Tbh I don't know. I know that with Marsh specifically we had a big money package ready with ND that his representation said they were happy with... then he goes to IU and gets offered $2.3M? So I don't know how you put that on Martin when he seems to have done his job, we just got played. It's a...

    Yes, Chad did a much better job of back channeling. People thought Martin would have similar results and it was the opposite.

    With Gilliam specifically or overall? With Gilliam, they did not make a large enough offer to lock him down and there are too many administrative boxes with how they approach admissions, contracts, etc. It's a cumbersome process relative to the other places. They could still land him, I don't...

    If you don't have a sole point person with absolute authority to get whoever they want in to school up to $X of money then right now you are losing in the portal. All schools that are "winning" the portal are ones that: 1. Did way more legwork pre-portal to put themselves in position to land...

    Yeah, consider these two completely opposite ends of the spectrum here: -At USC, Bowden is literally negotiating and cutting contracts directly with players. Almost zero coach involvement. They don't even have a DC right now. He's basically operating like an NFL GM. -At Indiana, Cig is...

    We will find someone who can kick a football, there are enough dudes out there that you can find someone who is average even late in the cycle. There are not a lot of 300 pound / proven DTs.

    If they miss on Gilliam then they are really running out of options. The DT position for 2026 is not sustainable and anyone who tries to sugar coat it is a rube. You cannot rely on youth + no depth at a position like that. I don't want to go back to the era of Carlo Calabrese playing emergency...

    They didn't give that much of a shit about Ian Strong. They reallllllly wanted Marsh, and liked the ISU DB a lot too. DT is the position where I'm perplexed but holding out hope until the clock strikes midnight. By all accounts, it's where they wanted to spend the most money because they feel...

    How is ASU getting two of the top five WRs but couldn't afford Leavitt?

    It legit cracks me up how USC turned over 100% of their roster construction to a guy with no football background and are signing a bunch of defensive players with no DC in place.

    He's objectively very good and maybe better than Bryce Young but most importantly you can put him inside to rush the passer on passing downs.

    The culture of some of these teams is astounding *unless* there is fine print that he's going to finish the playoff run
