Title is going to trigger recruiting faithful who get massive erections for the next industry changing quarterback that ends up being painfully mediocre at the next level, and even when they reach NFL draft level. Will Levis is a prime example of this when the indianapolis Colts draft him.

Follow me here, pre-NIL, the school had the leverage and the opportunity. Getting an education while possibly going on to the next level is some capacity. Now, The leverage has shifted over to the players, which on paper is great, terrific… on paper. If you listen to the Spiked College Football Show, you will hear me refer to Texas A&M as a school that is filled with a roster of 5 star athletes, that went 4-8 this past year. It’s really sad that this talented roster somehow, someway got worse from pre-NIL to post-NIL.

I’m from Nebraska, love all the Nebraska teams that come from this state. Matt Rhule taking over the program has been a game-changer in terms of moral compared to the last guy. He has even done great things on the recruiting trail, even selling some 2nd team Georgia Bulldogs the opportunity to play here, which I love this type of recruiting, getting guys who wouldn’t see the field in the SEC, an opportunity to play in the Big 10. There’s 1 recruit tho that has captured hearts and minds about recruiting in Nebraska, and that’s Dylan Raiola.

Dylan is going into his senior season. He is taking (unofficial) visits to Nebraska, Georgia, USC, pretty much any top program is courting him at this moment. He did commit to Ohio State, but pulled his commitment. He was considered the #1 pick of the class before pulling out, which dropped him to #6, explain that logic to me? It doesn’t make a lick of fucking sense, a JUNIOR, #1 overall changes his mind and it somehow de-values him?

That’s the start, recruiting upcoming seniors that have changed their minds once. What’s stopping them from changing their minds in January? Say Dylan commits in the coming weeks to Nebraska. Matt Rhule, in his true program building form, goes 2-10, I don’t think he does, I think if Nebraska makes a bowl, its considered a great season compared to the past, but I digress. Nebraska goes 2-10, and Lincoln Riley and USC calls up in December and does a sell job of how he doesn’t have any faith in the quarterback room post-Caleb Williams and asks “what will it take to get you here?” There’s nothing stopping this tampering from happening! The School nor these collectives can’t force these kids into contracts.

This is gonna be a big problem the earlier into a high school career we look at these kids to recruit. This is going to be a revolving door of pain for Football Programs, you hope these kids keep to their commitments, but it looks increasingly unlikely.

These times are unraveling post-NIL approval. There have to be some rules, establishing some balance, otherwise recruiting, specifically high-school recruiting is honestly just going to turn into a giant, jerk off session with the next flavor of the year. It’s why I don’t follow it a ton, specifically on the high school level and out on doing a ton of it on here, because nobody knows nor gets it right even 10 percent of the time. It will be interesting to watch to see how badly these elite athletes can fuck over these top programs for X amount of dollars, but beyond that, its unhealthy.
