EVERYONE is breaking the rules. Blatantly.

That room is filling back up with the RBs from State College and the PWO from Delaware along with Martin, Hanson, and Wallace. Don't know if Hayes wants to come back and compete?
Probably a much better opportunity for him at that level.
Why you are giving an 18 year old more money than his parents make combined.. Let 'em piss it away I do not feel sorry for any 18 year old who thinks he has it made ...and doesn't make the effort to learn on his own. Tired of spoon-feeding these entitled children ... we do it way too much. they haven't done anything except play high school football
Why? Because millions of people just like you spend thousands of dollars each and they demand a winner.
As long as you spend the money the teams will give it to 18 yr olds.
It makes me wonder how he was getting an offer from Penn State? Of all the options out there and I am not saying that Ohio State woukd pick him up but Alabama A&M?
Kinda' tough for Duke to say:
"He has to play for us"
Why?
"Because we (promised to) pay him"
Oh, you know that's illegal, right?
"Uh, well, uh.......... nevermind"
Two reasons, the first one is that when the kid was a junior, he went to a camp or combine where one of the recruiting services drastically overrated him due to his performance there. He was a kid who transferred multiple times through high school and never could even win a starting job at a good program.
The second reason that Penn State got him is because if you don’t have a quarterback in your recruiting class for some reason, it’s ranked lower. It doesn’t matter if you had two five star quarterbacks see year before, your class automatically gets a knock if it does not have a quarterback each year. CJF wanted to bump up in the rankings so he needed to get one and this is the one that he chose.

You do know that it was never about him entering the portal or transferring right? Duke owned his NIL rights, so if Miami signed him to an NIL deal Duke would have got the money and would have paid him the $4 million under their contract. So if Miami signed him to a $7 million deal Duke would have had a $3 million profit. Duke and Mensah settled to get his right back. I’m sure Miami is the one paying Duke millions to cover the buyout. This tampering BS is killing college football. Wish Duke didn’t settle. It’s the precedent that mattered and not the money. That is for all of College Football and it’s future
