who averages a sack per game. $50,000? $100,000?

And how does that work? Direct player/coach "discussions" or rather player/third party discussions?

Will we ever know?

And I really can't believe people would even suggest we'd be paying to get Hardy back. I'm going to bet that a 3rd round pick would receive somewhere in the neighborhood of $1M in a signing bonus, plus a certain amount of a guaranteed contract. It would be really hard for a college to match that kind of money. Think before you post.

The Ole Miss money is guaranteed though. He was taking a chance on the round. He made the smart choice. You always take the sure money.

No, he probably came back because he is a 1st round talent with a 3rd round projection based on the fact that he played a lot of the year injured.

You act like the only reason he would come back would be because we would be paying him. You've got one thing right. It is probably about money, NFL money. We couldn't pay him nearly as much as he stands to make if he comes back and plays a full year of healthy football.

I'm sure we paid Patrick Willis to come back as well, and I'm sure that he's more excited about the $50K we gave him to come back than the $10M or so that he made himself by coming back to play one more year.

The #2 pick, Calvin Johnson, signed for 6 year deal for $64 million with $27.2 million guaranteed. That is an average of $10.66 million a year.

The #32 and final first round draft pick, Anthony Gonzalez, signed a 5 year contract for $10.3 million with $5.4 million guaranteed. That is an average of $2.06 million a year.

that if his decision was based on money, why not take the 3rd round NFL signing bonus for > &1,000,000.00. Even if we payed the kid Albert Means money, that would still be 20% of (or less than) his signing bonus. The argument holds no water. That being said, did the kid get payed? Highly likely......just like all these other 17ers playing for SEC schools.....I just don't think that's why he came back.

Yeah, when we aren't cussing State and saying anything remotely negative to Ole Miss, this place sucks.

Go kick that ****** OleMiss Grad in the *%@*!!% head over on NAFOOM. He is more OM Spirit on there than anybody on here is Gene Page. Case in point.....

But neither is accusing State of cheating every time a player decides to end up in Starkville.

**** like that is why this board was created. **** like "M$U" and "Rock that Deuce" is why people post on NAFOOM and leave the scout/Rivals site.

I've got no beef with you White Devil. But I hate sheep whether they're dressed in maroon or Rebel red. And I miss a sixpack and a nafoom where people with brain cells posted more salient **** than baseless accusations on par with the phantom LOI.

Cocksmoker.

you don't like it, bye. It was a joke about Hardy anyway, but as usual you Rebs have to defend. I read the **** on NAFOOM, you don't see me over there defending and bitching.. It's a damn Ole Miss Board, they can be as ignorant as they want to be. Same here.

Let the folks running the board worry about it.
I'm not a sheep. I really could care less. I usually let that **** go. But that doesn't mean I like the bastards. You don't like us either. Fine. Who gives a ****.
