    - If they get the Pitt kid and Keon with B Young - they'd be in good shape. - murph92675 - 9:39am 1/7/26

If a kid has an NIL agreement with a school or collective are they annual agreements? - ndphysics - 6:58pm 1/6/26 (1) [View All]

So Much Fretting Over Portal - Girard - 4:15pm 1/6/26 (7) [View All]
- Agree - we have lost two players from our 2-deep roster - Nigel Tufnel - 9:35am 1/7/26
- The DT situation will be alarming if we don’t get decent guys in portal [NT] - ndphysics - 6:18pm 1/6/26
  - Not alarming, uncertain. ND has players that have been behind some really good players. - Clem - 7:22pm 1/6/26
    - Not this time. You are whistling in the graveyard - Baytowner - 8:26pm 1/6/26
      - Not at all, just have more faith in this staff's evaluation and development than you do. - Clem - 6:01am 1/7/26
        You still need real talent to win it all. Or be way ahead in the portal. I prefer our recruiting - THEISMANCARR - 1:56pm 1/7/26
        Agree on all counts. [NT] - Clem - 3:24pm 1/7/26

Would capping the NIL help mitigate these mass migrations? Is it legal/possible? - Jerseymick - 3:45pm 1/6/26 (5) [View All]

- If the players form a union and caps are collectively bargained [NT] - irish93 - 3:50pm 1/6/26
  - I suspect even that would run afoul of antitrust laws w.r.t. NIL (But not revenue sharing). - Shadow_of_the_Dome - 4:04pm 1/6/26
