Depends on who we can actually get, a high profile player, absolutely. But several of those you can scratch off the list no matter what.

1: this is why I don’t get attached to any State player anymore. It’s all mercenary work now. Until the NCAA implements some controls (like the NFL does) this will slowly rot college athletics from the inside out.
2: this is why we should have brought in a hybrid air raid guy to slowly transition to a new scheme and take advantage of our manageable schedule next year. The concept of the air raid from the beginning at State was to try something different in the hopes it would give us a competitive edge. With the run option folded into that system more it actually was really starting to become something different that would allow us to offset some of our recruiting deficiencies. Oh well….
speakin' of QBs; Y'all dig on this:
I "heard/read" that the Maye kid at UNC turned down $5M... from Bammer, no less...
Not certain what his price tag would be, but he'd be a good get, IMO... we shoulda offered 8....
Jfc....I can hear y'all hyperventilating all the way up here...

Easy there, Turbo.... Bammer fittin' to get it fired back up...
Than y'all gone be all like:

And Horror ye shall receive, Sir... and perhaps even, a "good spankin'"...

Our fan base still has sticker shock. Many still think the days of Cam Newton getting 200K are still in play. Those days are long gone and we are way behind.
The game is that you need money for good players, both to bring in from the outside and to keep in your program. We have too many that think we can be successful by having great culture and saying we work hard.
It's money plain and simple. And anyone that thinks we can just organically be successful is crazy. Money doesn't guarantee success but in the SEC it's the only way to have a chance at success.
Sooner we get over that and start funding NIL the sooner we can start really talking about what we can do to compete. Hopefully Selmon helps get that message across.
Todd, I don?t know what?s worse. The fact that we have some fans who think we won?t miss Will if he were to leave, or the fact that they feel like a pro style spread is going to be easier to execute then the air raid.
I wouldn?t give will anything above what he already has. Where?s he going to go? Belhaven? Let him go and go find another qb
Once again, y’all bitch all year about how the offense is horrible and wanting to blow it up, now that Arnette is doing it, y’all are in panic mode. Why don’t y’all wait and see how everything plays out. For all I care Will could go. He is not an SEC QB and maybe Arnette thinks that also. Let Will go to WKU or Tulsa. Who cares. Their are plenty of QBs who can come in and do what Will has done (stand in the pocket like a statue and throw a crossing route) Remember, EVERYONE wanted an upgrade at QB to throw the deep ball and open stuff up. Well, your getting what you wanted…
No Tulu, I hate to see go and there has to be more to that story. There is no way the kid goes from recruiting like crazy for State to all of a sudden he hates it hear… Just looking at his Twitter he is being a typical 19 yr old and it’s look at me time. I really wish we could keep him. He will blow the hell up at Tulsa or somewhere small. There just has to be more to it…
