No joking here… I think the 1890 collective and others need to scratch out at least a $2-3 mil deal for Dylan for NIL. Gotta act like a big boy if you want to get back to glory

When a player signs an NIL deal, are they normally committed to that school for a specific period? If they leave after a year is there a penalty or is it paid in installments as long as the player is at the school? What about being unable to play due to injury?

It is a bit complex. How it was explained to me is that collectives have contracts with individual players, the donors determine who they want to give their money to. Since the collective represents the school they can have stipulations that are tied to the player being enrolled and playing for the school. Now there are other independent type NIL people out there. One being Hal Mumme and Assoc. their deals are typically with national brands, they don't care who the player plays for, they just endorse their products. I am familiar with a softball player that signed with Mumme's group and she endorses a bat company. She transferred from one highly ranked school to another and she kept her deal with the bat company. Since she is a top 10 player in the country, the bat company doesn't care as long as she keeps making appearances and sells bats.

I think USC will be our main competition. Let's hope we can pull him N on his visit.
Well, thing is, USC just signed the QB from Los Alamitos, who was the 3 or 4 guy in the country. He will have at least two years of eligibility to go if Dylan went there. Unless Dylan thinks he’s a chump then the surest path to play early is NU, as Sims will graduate after Dylan’s dread an year and we pretty much have no one after that.

Not a big surprise, he and the family are visiting their top schools during Spring Practice. If the visit goes well I'd also expect him back for the Spring game. And other recruits will likely be there for that Spring game to take in the atmosphere and see for the first time what the team might look like in simulated game conditions. Spring game especially is important for Nebraska since there's no prior game tape with the new coaching staff. Georgia and USC of course have last season's games to study.

Here are the details of Florida’s QB recruit deal that fell through

250k per month as a freshman
375k per month as a junior

Juat spent a whole 43 seconds looking into this so I'm pretty well educated on the subject now....but i'm not sure why the deal fell thru. It just did...and the guy who pledged the cash is reportedly retired after selling his auto based consulting company for a **** ton of cash.

The all glass façade is giving me major 2014 design vibes. Really over compensating for the request of natural lighting by previous UNL staff. There is a fine line between wanting nice natural lighting and then having an overwhelming uncomfortable feel to a space.

The perfectly rectangle box of glass on the west side of the building looks incredibly cheap and will look out-dated to the untrained eye in no less than 5-10 years.

Classic Nebraska blowing it. Cant remember the last time the university did something that was unanimously bad ***.

Shoulda gone for a mix between traditional, modern, and contemporary design to match the west stadium. Instead, tried to be hip and cool (which Nebraska is not and never will be) and put all their chips on some person designing the place with blue hair. I bet the chairs in the building will be from IKEA.

All that matters is if recruits think it's hip, cool, lit, off the hook, etc

Well considering im 24 i think i can resonate with them pretty well....it looks like a person who is 40 designed it trying to be hip and cool....which in fact.....makes it not hip and cool

Will obviously be better than what we have now....but when spending $155M on a structure that will likely be there for the next 50 years minimum.....really went a bit overboard on the trendy design touches that will be obsolete and cheugy in 10 years. There is a reason why we dont tear down 150 year old stadiums....they were designed to last a century and built like the roman coliseum. This on the other had was built like my local 7-11.

Same thing with the new COB on campus. Nice and functional yes, but ugly and in 20 so years you will be sctraching your head thinking why is there a giant glass cube connected to that building. Shoulda built it to match the West stadium façade with modern touches. Blew it

looks like them brick posts out front are the same as the stadium...I think I would have went with black glass.
but I suppose I'll wait for the final view to see what they come up with...I suppose the main thing is the players feel right for working out, learning and recovery.

We should just let our recruits design the new facilities. Work that into an NIL deal. Could have put all that wasted design money to work on the field.
