Something Osterman has mentioned a few times is the idea of incorporating Transfer Fees (gaining program compensates losing program) similar to European Soccer - I doubt it will gain steam in the States in the immediate future, but it is an interesting idea.

It will be interesting to see what the rev share contracts look like.  NIL deals are obviously private, but for public schools I'm sure journalists (or forum posters) will FOIA the players' rev share contracts.

There won't be transfer fees, but perhaps we see buyouts in those rev share contracts.  That would be a good thing imo -- some compensation for the school that developed the player, and it makes transfers a bit more costly, which could reduce the number of transfers.  I don't think the buyouts will be large, but just having those in there would be useful.  We'll see.

In general, I'm glad players are getting paid, but as part of that I'd like to see the employee/employer relationship professionalized more than it is now -- as is contracts that look like the pro ones.

Hopefully that means a TE in transfering in?

 

He’s a redshirt 3 star? Maybe was told he wouldn’t see the field? Goodluck to wherever he lands!

One already did transfer in -- Riley Nowakowski from Wisky.

True but he’s not much of a receiving threat

That’s more what I meant.

I’m a big believer in the benefits of a receiving threat TE. But I’m not the coach or a coach so my opinion doesn’t matter.

Nice to have him back. He realized how good we became and especially with Coach Cig and Co. 

Captain Obvious here….”Good players want to play on good teams with good coaches!”

Probably re-instate the 1 year no playing rule for all conferences except for the SEC

Loved Moore in his first stint here. That’s a nice pick-up. Dude brings it.

Seems like his production dropped this year. Any ideas why?  Crowded safety room? Injury?

Injuries really derailed the season for him.  Outside of the Florida game, a very unforgettable season the young man.

Probably just ask for a postseason ban for any team taking an SEC transfer

He was at IU last year transferred to ole miss and is now coming back

[MemphisHoosier 2,231]

Sneed to the Portal, given his lack of time on the field this shouldn't be a major surprise.

Yes, just was stating this year that he was leaving a program that whines to go somewhere that wins.
