Stewart opting out?
- Thread starter HI Cock1
- Start date
Today's top players are 24/7 free agents.
College football, for the fan, ain't what it used to be. Most of these kids couldn't care less about the name on the front of the jersey.
Many of us knew it was over with NIL. We were right.

I think it’s universal. I grew up in a sports family, sports was basically my life. Somewhere around the time of MLB free agency it lost its grip on me; it lost its innocence in a way. I didn’t even know the baseball games I’ve been scrolling through the past week on my tv was the World Series until I saw a blurb in an email this morning.
I don’t mind them getting paid true NIL. That’s not what we now have. They’re simply getting paid and, unlike the NFL, there are no contracts. It’s the Wild West now.
He is right though about NIL and the portal killing college football. But, you are right too that Indiana has benefitted greatly from the Portal. Vandy, I guess somewhat, But we have greatly out recruited Vandy both in the portal and in high school recruiting. Lea is a superior "coach". We have significantly out recruited Indiana and Vandy in the high school ranks in the past few years.
I bet, Done for year. Will be at UGA or Ohio State next year. Nil has ruined college football for the fans.
Certainly not a given. But given the circumstances, its understandable that it's the first thought.
He has had a bad attitude for last few weeks. A phenomenal talent but not a good “teammate”! (IMO)
Dude is locker room bad news. Talented but the maturity of a 12 year old.
Probably read moronic post recently encouraging him and others to shut it down. A true fan.
Dude was listed as questionable. Nobody said he was out. Our fanbase sucks sometimes.
Why act like chicken littles?
oh look he is playing!
Pull his NLI money and send him on his way! He was great last year because the dude on the other end of the defensive line was an absolute dawg!
If only that worked. Our positive posts would bring more wins!
1. “Dude?” How old are you?
2. “chicken littles?” How old are you?
3. “Our fanbase sucks sometimes.” Yes, you do.
People who get their panties in a wad because a player gets added to an injury report late and start some nonsense about him opting out is typical South Carolina “woe is me” attitude. It’s embarassing

Listen Buddy,….a lot on here still remember the fiasco with Juice, and how he played
the Gamecocks and then slapped them in the face ! Such a Bastard!!
I haven’t forgotten him or Kiffen!!
Can't "pull" NIL money provided by businesses for services rendered by players. If the player doesn't perform the service, that's between him and the business he defrauded.
That’s fine buddy, I’ve never been one to let one negative instance affect me emotionally to future potentials.
We have heard this all year in regards to Stewart because we have simply been terrible.
I think Stewart has proven he is willing to play through being hurt, which is nothing like Juice.
If this whole new era existed when Clowney sat out the UK game, I’m sure we would’ve heard the same.
