FB Recruiting Rutgers offers Transfer Portal DT -- Joey Slackman
- Thread starter Richie O
- Start date
This kid will have many options on to where to play his final year. Hopefully his family is filthy rich and does not need any NIL money.
The good thing with this kid- he has graduated from UPenn- he will most likely be doing pretty damn well in his post football career anyway so maybe a 5-6 figure NIL does not matter so much as staying close to home.
Nice PFF grade but how does that translate from Ivy to the BiG?
Hopes and prayers arent as effective as contributions to our NIL collective.

And the Ivies won't let you take an extra covid year if you graduated so he could not stay at Penn. Preseason 2nd team All-Ivy, so it will be interesting to see where he ended up. The league has put a few DL into the NFL the last few years, but no stars. At worst I see him providing quality depth that this team has generally had trouble maintaining.
Obviously unfortunately you know this fanbase. All opinions but rather die than contribute anything else.
wasnt my first born son enough? lol
Got any nephews with talent you could steer to the Banks?
You mean the elite, basketball recruits came to Rutgers only out of the goodness from within their hearts?
My GOD can some of you just leave it alone for ONE DAMN THREAD??
YOU ARE PREACHING TO THE ******* CHOIR!!! WE KNOW, WE KNOW, WE KNOW!!!!
Because of archaic Ivy Legue rules there are players to be found if you are looking for one year fixes.
Well- he did have a 6ft4 Cousin that had been recruited to play basketball at UCLA. But way past his eligibility now...
Give it another 15-16 years and his daughter may be playing some sport for us though. The Mom is also over 6ft...
I’m not getting my hopes up for this young man. He’s up to 14 offers and several heavy NIL hitters. Texas, Oregon, USC and Tennessee
Commack on Long Island is not a wealthy town. Unlikely a wealthy family. But Rutgers has the locational advantage.
Nope, not leaving it alone. Everyone needs to contribute or else our major athletic programs will become irrelevant and noncompetitve.
yeah ehhh sorry, no - do you still want to TELL everyone WTF to do? If $11 a month is nothing- up yours to 22 and put my name on half of it. thanks
Leave alone how college football recruiting works ? What’s the point in following the team year round if you want to ignore the number 1 way teams are acquiring players especially transfer portal players. It’s not going away this kid is not coming here now unless he wants to be real close to home. He will go where the money is. He will go where the fan bases give a **** other than to talk and complain about why we are not getting it done. NIL is fundamental going forward.
So you are here just to pass the time out of boredom because it’s obvious you do not want to win. Are you gonna tell me 11 feeds a family as well?yeah ehhh sorry, no - do you still want to TELL everyone WTF to do? If $11 a month is nothing- up yours to 22 and put my name on half of it. thanks
Good for you bro I think ita pathetic to be so emotionally involved and only care enough to give opinions. Would be great to have fans that give a **** more than to just give opinions bash coaches and players and give endless opinions out of boredom.
Do you have ANY idea of how ignorant this post is?
Give me a break. The average poster on this board is an RU grad that has worked 30-40 years. Everyone can afford to donate to the RU team they are a fan of.
Ignorant how? We want to win we want Bowl games other than Pinstripe but we don’t want to help get us there. It’s pathetic and so many of our fake die hards are ok with doing absolutely nothing to help. We all went to Rutgers and are making tons of money yet we are ok with standing on the sidelines and complain.
I am going to repeat myself. First - $11 a month is not going to break me- $11 an hour wouldn't either.
I am happy that so many of you are contributing. Thank you
But -
1 - I am not even a RU Alumni
2 - I grew up in upstate NY, not NJ. Moved here after the age of 40
3 - I had no idea what a Rutgers was
4 - Did my time
5 - Most of the people I know who had kids play on the team- no longer even follow the team unless they grew up a diehard fan
6 - I love to watch the Rutgers teams but I do not lose any sleep at all if we happen to lose a game
7 - I will support the team I watch in all the traditional ways
8 - I am so opposed to what NIL became- that it pisses me the F off
9 - NIL- If I had a local business, I would be the first to use my marketing budget for a Rutgers NIL
10- Fans were never supposed to be the ones footing the bill for NIL.
and because my sound board goes to 11- having someone tell me what to do with my money pisses me off. So- support your NIL- I even say, go out and try to get more people to support it as well. But to jump into every thread to do with recruiting and hit us again with your "a better fan than us" - It just isn't the way to go
Guys like nuts and Al and 1766 are big supporters of NIL and it never is in every thread out there. I can respect that but not the holier than though.
mad respect that you gave my reply a like...And yes, completely understand that 10 changed and it is the main reason I just am not going to do it.
Also- my kid played his 30ish games beating the crap out of his body- I am not going to shell out cash to someone elses kid to play here. I would rather put the $132 a year into something for his daughter. So- there is my $11 NIL being paid out to a player- just happens to be to a player in the early 2000's
This may be the definitive post on NIL and why others shouldn’t judge people about their involvement with it.
