    Nobody in their right minds wants to go through the spring with a freshman scholarship and a walk-on as your only QB's.
    Although, we will likely never be able to prove it either way, no reasonable person will be believe Will Rodgers was offered $100k from the barn for the 2023 season.

    The problem is you don't know how much continuity was preserved by hiring CZA. This may be the scenario with the least attrition possible. No way to know that, infinite possibilities. The entire defense could have left in any other scenario, I don't know and no one else does either. Can't solve for what might have happened.

    Unless they think the one win vs MSU without a QB is worth 100k. Which it is in bowl standing alone, not to mention the positive effects of hurting your competition.

    1. Help superglue pack! He can?t even slide.
    2. Any time buck tooth gets a chance to screw with MSU, he will. Sammy should have never allowed that POS back in the SEC.

    Can't say that I blame Will. But that said - and I know my opinion is not shared by many - but I think the NIL and the free transfer rules have screwed up college football infinitely and indefinitely. I don't think that NIL was intended to mean we had players being paid multi-millions in college; rather it meant they could make a few dollars off of autographed pictures, shirts with their names, etc. Probably won't be long before athletes aren't even required to sign up for classes.

    Your opinion isn't shared by many? Dude, nearly every single person who watches CFB has this opinion.

    If that's the case, then there needs to be pressure to revert. And then crack down very seriously on cheating.

    Well the right thing to do would be for him to report the tampering then. Maybe he has.

    When was the last time you heard of a player being suspended for academic reasons?

    Agree. They told players that they were keeping the air raid, and instead they?re going to a pro style offense

    I have said this before and I will say this again- he will be one of the most underrated QB's we have ever had and our fans won't realize it until he leaves.

    You are right, no way to prove it on a message board and actual numbers shouldn't be discussed anyway. But that number is so way off, it's not even funny. What you think is reasonable is not close to accurate to what real numbers are being paid.

    Random thought I just had. Didn't Auburn just hire Tulsa's coach that was there when they did all of that dirty crap the entire game and then acted like bitches when Erroll lit up their WR on that kickoff? And then got into a fight with us that Kirk Herbstreit totally blamed on us?

    So you're implying the barn offered Will significantly more than $100k? If so, he should take that money and run, no one would blame him.
