    Honest question, I don't know anything about him.
    hurt his knee in August. Redshirted. He's gained probably 15 pounds and looks good.

    Lets be clear - the coaches started this shit.

    Coaches were the first to leave teams and get hired away before bowl games. Kids learned from them and now are just doing what coaches have been doing since the 90s.

    Honest, but perhaps naive questions. Are these good players being hit on at all times by other programs in this NIL/Portal world? Can other teams officially contact your player still on scholarship once he enters the portal? What are the rules, if any? Can some players carry thier NIL deal (s) with them to their next team depending on the sponsor? No more "honor among thieves"? Looks like you get your NIL program together or serve as a developmental program for the better funded programs or Big Boy$. I bet handling the ego$ in the locker room is now a bigger challenge and headache than ever. Another elephant in room. Read where many of these players are not even finding a landing place with another program. Does the NCAA care that the "student athlete's" educational opportunity may well be over?

    Judas Priest did make a double album about Nostradamus, but he didn't play SEC football. Hail State!

    Basically. It’s a glorified minor league now.

    Hate to see Rara go he was one of my favs but in this era of college football you can’t get to attached to a player because about 80% of them are mercenaries for hire.

Decoldest Crawford is definitely a possibility(we are trending in right direction for him), Theo Wease from Oklahoma and there's a couple of others we're in good shape for as well.
    Theo would work here

    Leach and this offensive staff have seen a lot more talented WRs up close and personal than our fanbase has. If they are okay with letting RaRa leave then I am too.

    The way this offense works is when WRs break big plays with their athleticism. Makai wasn?t heralded at Cal but came here and dominated our offense. Maybe they see that we need an upgrade. RaRa may not be worth the asking price and they are confident they can find someone else who will be more physical and explosive.

    Don?t let the door hit ya where the Lord split ya. Good luck but on your way out HailState!

    Pretty sure letting Rara walk we've got a suitable replacement lined up. Several on the burner right now.

    Correct

    He’s very replaceable

    People have no idea how good Moseley is, four star with sprinters speed. We are stacked at receiver and will bring in 1-2 more very good players. Smart decision to let him go.

    Yea, and I don't know why anyone worries about HS recruiting at this stage. Majority of the guys won't finish at the school they sign with anyway.
