With all due respect this is not EXACTLY the same.

Breaking SI Thinks Dyl, effed up...

I was actually "in the room" at Blockbuster HQ in Dallas, TX as part of a multi-partner solutions team when they conveyed this news to us. "We've decided to renew our focus on our in-store experience" was the line they uttered when we asked what happened to the "Movies.com" executive that was in the room with us two weeks ago when we made our initial pitch, as our combined solution was very forward looking (at the time) in the sense that it strongly promoted a customer-centric approach across multiple channels.
The amount of "furtive glances" that went around the room following that statement may have set an all-time record. We were flabbergasted and frankly, completely right about the nincompoops that lead that company straight off the cliff. We had a nearly identical experience with the same team at Sears. Sometimes ... you just know: these people are too stupid for us to save them.
Different world though. Limited ability to acquire an equal or better replacement back then. And obviously Crouch was a Heisman level talent which Dylan isn't.
I never knew how to spell nincompoop…thank you
It's like debating if you want to get back with your crazy ex: is it desperation by both parties? are things going to change if we get back together? is she going to lose weight?
Raiola is not worth it. It will also be nice to move away from whatever system we were trying to run with him where we "just need" a lineup of 5 stars to make him better.

Anyone that wants Raiola back has a room temp IQ
Agree, Crouch quitting before he even played a game at Nebraska for a couple days is exactly the same as our 2 year returning starter shopping himself in the transfer portal.
In a way, I think not taking Raiola back potentially gives Rhule a bit longer runway. You can sell a bit more of a “rebuild” next year with a better 27 class coming after that. If you took Raiola back, then the pressure is really on at that point.
Bingo, I was thinking this exactly. There is a reason you broke up in the first place and it’s best both sides move on. I really hope Rhule says no thanks if he does want to come back. I think he’s a good kid just getting controlled by his dad, and hopefully he finds a good landing spot that will tell Dom to go to hell we are calling the shots.
The QB is supposed to be the leader of the team and set the tone for the program. You can justify some players using the portal to get a raise but the face of the program who was already making the most money on the team. Nah let him go figure it out elsewhere.
That’s crazy, not a lot of people get to witness such an elite level of stupidity live and in person. We witness idiots on a daily basis, but you basically got to see a sasquatch riding a unicorn level stupid…
I don’t think he’s leaving to get a raise.
Probably not, but being told your best offer is 800K to go to Kansas St will definitely make a man pause and reflect.
The whole thing is completely speculation and conjecture of the highest order. I was just fallowing the only realistic way he would be able to come back. And that would probably be too tall of an order for bothe Dylan and Dom.
He and his dad might have thought this several weeks ago. (Incorrectly) But I think they know now, Dylan is gonna take a significant pay cut, they (whoever it ends being) are not gonna give him any special treatment and Dom’s opinions won’t be worth a pile of dog shit. Too bad, deal with it.
New guy coming in hot boys! Take cover! 😂
You’re talking to a TPB legend. Show some respect tater boy.
Oh please let him go to K-STATE. That would do wonders for his ego. Oh please let this happen.
