They're taking all the pass rushers. Holy shit.

I don’t think TT even cares if some are busts at this point. They’ll pay you more to compete for a starting job than most/all will pay to guarantee you a starting job.

“I understand you wanna play son, and if you’re good enough you will. But if it doesn’t work out you’ll be getting paid more than every starter at your position across CFB. Pretty good deal if you sign right now, you wait we won’t have a spot for you.”
 
I have to ask some questions here.....


1: Did you think Indiana would do good or bad in this year's portal?

2: Did you think TTU would do good or bad in this year's portal?

3: Did anybody expect Nebraska to do better than TTU and Indiana 48 hours into portal season?

So far, everything that has happened makes total sense to me. I did not expect top level future NFL dudes to be hot to join Nebraska. I do except those guys to land at places like Indiana and TTU. Those are hot destinations right now.

If you did think stud players would have a hard dick to be N, I have to ask, why would you believe that? And don't give me some quote by Rhule from a press conference. He has to say stuff like that. Promoting and exaggerating is part of the job. Your job as a critical thinker is to understand and see through the fog. Some of the stuff he said about money and the portal was literally hours after signing his extension. What was he gonna say?
Stop it. Rational logic doesn't apply here. The Waterheads have taken over. Critical thinking isn't for the new RSS'ers here.
 
You hearing anything on the RB front, unc? @pavelkasuncle
RB market slower than a lot of other positions & they've got feelers out. Don't know of any that have set a visit yet. They were priced out on Tre Wisner - just committed to FSU and was asking $1M+. Still think they need 2 but I'm not sure if the staff feels that way.
 
What better way to sell yourself to college football players than to advertise in noted CFB hotbed Manhattan.
Yeah that was what I was getting at. Unless I'm missing something I don't think many New Yorkers give shit about Sorsby or TT just wasting money.
It's actually quite cheap to pay to have an ad run once or twice for a few seconds on a mid-range billboard around Times Square. Take a couple photos, and it looks like an ongoing glamorous & important marketing campaign, when basically any poor here could swing it easily.

Appreciate it.

Keep fighting the good fight on Twitter with those dumbass Sparty fans. The Frager bazooka was peak

TT obviously just trying to send a message to Rutgers and just flaunting it in their face, home of the first college football game be damned.
