We're going to need an NIL salary cap.
NIL money is going to start competing with money for coaches, eventually some equilibrium will be made. Coaches salaries have ballooned in no small part because the talent on the field was free, now they are going to be competing for the same pot of money.

He’s expected to visit Oregon this weekend. And, FWIW, a poster at 247 is saying this is a done deal already. Him and his bro going to Oregon.

All these dudes bailing and we haven't heard a single new name thrown out as an option to flip to us. Would think Loy would at least just make some shit up at this point to get some level of positive interest.

Probably because outside of Vyper, ND isn't really looking for new guys.

They already got their contingency for Bowen in Minich and potentially Hillman.

They got their contingency for Edwards in Kaleb Smith and potentially Hillman.

They got their contingency for Paige in Terek.

They got their contingency for Moore in Minchey.

The only thing they really missed out on their replacement for Keeley. Perhaps that's Zinter or Traore or whoever. And maybe a name pops up at the last second. I'm not counting on somebody big though.

In the past, these misses were not replaced with a contingency and they eventually became a hole in the roster. Stark difference with the Freeman administration.

Don't really think Limar is anything special, but would hope we look to bring in another RB just to maintain depth.

ISD is dropping hints that ND is going after a 2nd RB. Whether that's in the '23 class or via the portal looks TBD.

Man, if ND wasn't losing Bowen, I'd be thrilled about a Hilman/Love combo at rb.
Thinking Hillman has to be a db now, which is a shame considering his talent with the ball.

I don’t think Hillman will play RB.

The next recruiting class will likely determine where Hillman ends up. And the roster attrition that will occur in the next twelve months, following the 2023 season.

If ND goes DB heavy and 1 RB in 2024, I can see him as a RB. Vice versa; light on DBs and 2 RBs, I can see him remaining on defense.

Also depends on how he grows into his body.

I read somewhere that ND was prepared for this, and has some options lined up, both in recruiting and in the portal, and it comes down to which they prefer.

Could just be more "please keep clicking our links prior to signing day" stuff, though.
