    So just look the other way? I don't know what you are saying. At a minimum you should report it to the school. WTF is Bracky Fife not on the case.

    Brother, Will made more than that this year as a bulldog. I don't want to reveal too much but his grandfather Mr. Billy and my Dad are very close friends.

    I'm not asking about how much he made from us, I'm asking about an offer from the Barn.

    He's is (or was) a fit for you, plus beloved by the fans, I just don't seem him getting a big offer to play in Freeze's offense.

    Bucky, something's not adding up here.

    So Will wants to be here and has actively turned down/donated our NIL money in the past. BUT, he was approached by a school and is now considering leaving State to take their NIL?

    I don't get it- if he wanted money why'd he donate ours, and if he's not about the money and he wants to be a Dawg why would another schools NIL offer be tempting enough to consider?

    I do not blame him if he's realized he needs to get all he can now due tto his lack of NFL prospects, and I wouldn't blame him if he didn't like the new OC. I'm not assuming or speculating anything here, I just don't see how "he's never even wanted NIL and he wants ot be here" can jive with "he's been offered NIL money to leave and is mulling it over"

    He made north of $100,000 for us, why does it matter what Auburn offered. You wouldn't have paid $100,000 for him anyway (you have stated it numerous times) and you have it fixed in your head that's all Auburn was offering (absolutely inaccurate). You think that's reasonable but you are so wrong and have been told by many people that you are. The portal $ numbers would make your head explode. Yes, even for Will who you think you can go to a Dollar Tree to replace him with.

    You must be one of dumbest posters on this board. This is not about the amount of money players are getting offered. This is about a particular QB getting a larger than $100k offer for an offense he in no way fits in. In no way do I believe he is getting that offer from Auburn.

    I wouldn't be as skeptical of him getting that offer from Bama cause Saban may see the value in him being a dependable back up who could probably help with play calling. We are all very familiar with Freeze's offense. An immobile QB, who can't throw deep, can't run a little bit and doesn't get the ball out quickly is not what Freeze is know for.

    I never said he was mulling anything over. He has been offered by several big schools. He isnt going anywhere barring an act of God
