May 21, 20223 yr Steve Spurrier provides candid thoughts on Nick Saban-Jimbo Fisher verbal spat Quote “Did Saban say something that wasn’t true?” Quote “Since (Fisher) beat him last year, I guess he can talk now,” Spurrier said, referring to Fisher becoming the first former Saban assistant to beat the legendary coach last season. “He hasn’t beat much of anybody, but he beat Saban last year. But they haven’t won the division or anything since he’s been there.” Edited May 21, 20223 yr by The Dog
May 21, 20223 yr Apparently Sankey wouldn’t let Kiffin go on Dan Patrick. Too bad, he would’ve blasted Jimbo. Sankey also said there are straight payments, not NIL, going on.

Let's see if he actually plays. The tweet used the past tense but not doing so would give away the person. By the way, White previously bowed out of the AA game in San Antonio due to Covid. https://www.pennlive.com/highschoolsports/football/2022/05/pennsylvania-big-33-team-loses-imhotep-charter-de-and-texas-am-signee-enai-white.html?outputType=amp As expected. Quote The 65th edition of the Big 33 Football Classic is now days away and there’s another significant change to the Pennsylvania roster. A Friday release stated that Imhotep Charter and Texas A&M defensive end recruit Enai White, one of the state’s top prospects in the Class of 2022, has been replaced by Mount Lebanon DT Owen Halter. According to the release from an official with the Pa. High School Football Coaches Association, White was told by Texas A&M that his Name, Image and Likeness money would be withheld if he participated in the Memorial Day event.

It doesn’t matter what they call it, it means it was a recruiting inducement and a blatant violation. So either the player is a liar or Jimbo is. Hmm, wonder which one it is. Not to mention, what a bitch move to try to deny the kid the ability to play. Edited May 22, 20223 yr by ClubWhatever

There is nothing about getting paid as a high schooler. Puma signed a multi million dollar deal with a basketball player in NC. If this player played in public school then he would no longer be able to play based on NC laws, but since he is in private it didn't effect him at all. Edited May 22, 20223 yr by Moderator

I think one of the issues is that the NCAA just came out and said that NIL collectives are now considered 'boosters' and as such are not allowed to have contact with high school recruits. Not that anyone is going to do a damn thing about it.

I have no clue about the legal side of things but this is a clear violation of NCAA rules. He's straight up admitting to an inducement.

They're begging the NCAA to come after them. Jimbo and aggy should just shut their mouths but they seem too stupid to realize this.

May 22, 20223 yr I am with you all. I can't see how a hs athlete can sign NIL that allows a college to control his actions before he ever enrolls. It's not like it is Nike telling him to not participate in an Adidas event. Funny how Jimbo claims to know nothing about his school's NIL program, yet somehow this kid is not allowed to play in an all-star football game due to his nil contract. Who would care about that other than his college football coach? It's not like playing hurts his nil value, if anything he stands to increase it. Theoretically, having an athlete you already signed play in an all-star game should enhance your value in the contract. Unless you are the football coach and worry about him getting injured.

Theoretically, having an athlete you already signed play in an all-star game should enhance your value in the contract. Unless you are the football coach and worry about him getting injured. I think there is a possibilty of a violation here and most likely is, but what is provable? Aggy didn't have a NIL collective when they got the #1 class, so are any of these considered boosters? If it's a company that is sponsoring his NIL contract, is there anything to prevent them saying to not play any games until his college career to prevent injury? I doubt it. Also, I've been told on this site that none of these were NIL deals, seems to me maybe some were. If there isn't a NIL contract here, seems like Aggy is really screwing themselves as White can just blow the whistle if they don't pay him. I will also add that playing in a Pennsylvania high school all star game doesn't increase any market value for a company especially one based in Texas. If he blows out his knee and misses his freshman year it hurts it. Edited May 22, 20223 yr by Moderator
May 22, 20223 yr It's possible he signed an NIL after he signed with Aggy - making the NIL not an inducement. It's also possible that his NIL deal may have made him ineligible to play in the game. Occam's razor and all, but most likely he got paid under the table by Aggy, and then they told him 'don't play in all star game'.

My understanding is that it's enrollment at the university that allows NIL deals to be done, not signing a National Letter of Intent

May 23, 20223 yr Popular Post Jimbo is an absolute idiot that is now leaving his boosters high and dry. "THESES ARE NOT NIL DEALS" thanks bruh, so what the fuck are they? Why is a kid from miami going to fucking college station to play football? after an 8-4 season which showed little promise outside of a fluke bama win. The dude is an absolute idiot and we may be watching career suicide in real time

The most confusing part is Bjork hasn't told Jimbo to shut the fuck up yet. Jimbo is terrible at discussing this stuff and makes himself look even more in the wrong. If anyone had common sense at aggy they would have already told Jimbo to stop talking.

May 24, 20223 yr This Enai White kid is now tweeting that the story isn’t true. So predictable. great news! Means he can play in the game. I look forward to watching him next week.
May 24, 20223 yr Hilarious and predictable. The original story even says that the "release from an official with the Pennsylvania High School Football Coaches Association stated why he withdrew." So this wasn't even a reporter running with a bad source it was officially released by the organization hosting the All-Star game. Why would they make this up? Somebody at aggy told the kid to shut up and change the story. https://brobible.com/sports/article/texas-am-recruiting-nil-enai-white-threat/

May 24, 20223 yr The interview was posted in the aggy thread on the football board but cross posting here. Talk about unhinged.
May 24, 20223 yr This shit is outta hand. I mean as someone who watches a lot of movies and crime shows, it seems like the money trail left by all the currency changing hands would be pretty easy to follow, no? I mean if someone more competent than the NCAA wanted to investigate.
May 24, 20223 yr 1 NIL deal for 11 early enrollees means aggy straight up bought players. Does Jimbo have no idea how this interview makes him look? It's also getting tiring to see the "blame the media" cop out. There is no political agenda here and trust me Jimbo, aggy doesn't drive "clicks or hits" normally. When it does though, it's all for the wrong reasons.
