It would be nice if UW and the B1G can enforce that contract. I doubt it though. There haven't been too many of these cases since the rev share started. There was one last year where some Wisky kid went to Miami and Wisky said they were going to enforce the contract. I don't know where that case stands, but that kid played all this season at Miami. That contract might be different than Demond's, but still. Unfortunately, Demond and LSU's lawyers think the UW contract is unenforceable, so my guess is he goes to LSU and nothing material happens. CFB (the B1G and SEC) probably won't do anything unless it puts their TV ratings and/or attendance at risk. But they need to be careful with stuff like this that annoys 90% of fans. Honestly, what's stopping anyone from doing anything? What if the Miami Hurricanes decided to sign an NFL free agent with eligibility left on a two game contract for the rest of the playoff and he joined the team this week. Who is stopping that? If someone does, they can just go to court and get an injunction and the player can play. I thought the rev share, which is straight up paying players to play would clean up CFB a bit by introducing stronger than contracts than the flimsy NIL ones, but that hasn't happened.

Sounds like we're linked.

Could be some drama coming… https://x.com/petethamel/status/2008729889856446877?s=46 “Washington sources say they are prepared to pursue all legal avenues to enforce Demond Williams’ signed contract.”

Can I interest you in... drone highlights?

Yep. And the best way to recruit is to win. Smashing Bama in the Rose Bowl was more impactful than any calls/texts to players the staff could do.

Wiltfong with a HS recruiting update. The momentum keeps building…

Dakich.

I can't quite remember. When I saw projected lines for OU and Bama I think the news/rumor was already out. Lines will move on injury news, but it varies a lot from case to case since it's almost always unique. Usually the moves are kinda small. We'll see if anything happens with this rumor... Agree, was just typing the above -- line moves seem to usually be pretty small (like 0.5 pt) except for QBs. I dunno, I'm just making observations.

Betting lines aren't moving... probably telling...

Cracks me up every time.

4*. Visit coming up here.

ESPN reports even higher viewership numbers than Yahoo did (22.5M). Maybe they include McAfee simulcast or something. Regardless, The Rose Bowl was tops and IU is draw. And I like the idea of keeping this thread alive awhile longer…

Ja’Hyde Brown. ‘27 class high school guy. A good one!

Thanks. Pat is the man. Awesome we get to cheer for him.

Jan 10th sounds like he commits…

We made it into one of these. :-)

Interesting data on incoming Mendoza vs. incoming Hoover. Pretty exciting...

Someone is making these… jarring to see!

That LSU visit probably got Sorsby another $1M from Cody. Now Leavitt will visit LSU today.

AP has better info but this was posted.

Probably not done...

Ha, we've got the Spittoon as a photo prop.

IU going with the shock and awe approach to the portal.

Good. If I had to guess, Nick Marsh's commitment means he knows who will be throwing him the ball.
