Awesome news!

Regardless, we now have an SEC team. We have an identity on offense (running the ball) and we now have talent on defense. I believe we head into bowling season with 7 wins.

....and Evans is a Dawg!

5 wins and I?m happy.

WTH is he thinking? He's not likely to get drafted unless he runs a whole lot faster than I think he can.

Well crap! One step forward two steps back.

Well he's married or about to be, so I guess he's ready to move on with life.
Although I think he would make more with us than he will trying to play in the nfl.

I guess I could argue that his production in 2025 will not be what it was in 2024, so his stock may be as high now as it will ever be.

Honestly, with the additions of Smith, Gullette, and Lockhart along with Tillman, I'm not sure Stone was guaranteed to start this year.

He seems to be another Jett Johnson type player that is a really good college player that probably doesn't have the speed to do much in the NFL. I'm not even sure he could make a team so yes, college NIL would seem to likely be his best option money wise.

What in the hell is he thinking?

I don’t think Stone was going to be playing as much and read the writing on the wall. Hope he does well.

he ain't good as or smart as Jett at the position. good luck to him

I agree. Stone?s not a good tackler, he likes to hit runners to the ground instead of wrapping up and driving runners to the ground. Let me back that up by saying that his defensive line did not help him out. No one needed double teaming EVER!

NIL $ will be really big and comparable at best for us and most want to play for championships and national exposure in a winning program. We have a "longn row to hoe" in this NIL/Portal crazy world, l;ike it or not.

The good news is we can still get him in a year or two if we start winning

He literally led the sec in tackles. I don’t agree with the take he wasn’t a good tackler.
