[QUOTE="xWVU2010x, post: 132021097, member: 1467482"] Paragraph 1 & 2 - As I have stated numerous times, it’s a 2 way street. If anyone has a ballpark figure of how many actual proven commodities are transferring “up” and if NIL is a factor in the decision, it would be welcome. We are all blind mice bickering at each other in the dark without that info, and finding one off scenarios trying to prove our point. As for Slaton, and also White after their freshman years, I will say it likely would have been tempting for them. That said, I would be surprised if they would have found a better situation. Remember, we ran an at the time ahead of the curve offense, that both players were perfect for. I don’t know what bigger programs would have ran an offense perfectly suited for them, as well as had no one else on the depth chart to compete with, as well as promise a stadium full of “10” and “5” jerseys and make them the most recognized faces in a state. Paragraph 3 & 4 - There has not been enough time to conclusively say if this is happening or not, will revisit this in a few years. Paragraph 5 - Cincy just did it for 4 years, so why can’t we exactly? [/QUOTE]
