And you think we should have paid hundreds of thousands of dollars for even the number 7 RB in the portal? Not in the country but in the portal. Mmm okay.
Is that a worse value than paying more for the 3
D lineman each? 26th edge, 40th d line and 103rd d line, not in the country but in the portal.

What did we pay those linemen? We don’t know for sure that we paid them anything more than the backups on our D line. The edge is a guy who already knows our DC’s defense.

RB range: $400,000 to $900,000
Edge rushers: $500,000 to $2 million
Interior DL: $500,000 to $1.5 million

Going by the Athletic portal article this year I'm guessing they didn't go in the portal to make backup money. Maybe the Boston college guy but we signed him after missing out on a bunch of other visits so he probably at least got decent money. You could have not signed him and gone after a running back.

According to husker online yesterday on the podcast one of our backup corners who doesn't play is making $150,000.

Do you really think we’re paying those guys that kind of money?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

And we keep adding coaches so Matt can do more podcasts. Coaches cost money. Spending more here takes away from spending more there.

Fire Snow and Fire fat Pat. Hire a GM at the cost most people are paying for that spot and you can have any back you want.

Matt doesn’t want good players. He wants to hire more people to 1) employee buddies & 2) so he can sit on his fat 🫏 and talk on podcaster

Matt Rhule went shopping for new kicks at Wal-Mart this year and everyone else went to Nike.

Now he’s acting like Wal-Mart shoes match Nike and guys like HBK and other numb nut posters agreeing

And where’s the proof that Husker online actually knows?

But you can play that game with anything, where's the proof of anything? Which media members do you believe and which are full of crap it's all up to your own personal perspective I guess. The Athletic article interviewed P4 coaches, GMs and staffers, maybe they're all full of **** too who knows.

That money doesn't exactly come from the same pool, but yeah we have more administrative deadweight than any other program in the country. At least we're leading in something.

Yes, absolutely we should pay hundreds of thousands to the #7 RB in the portal. Dowdell has proven more than any back on our roster and he's ranked 31st in the portal.

You're showing yourself completely out of touch on what market value of these players actually is. For one thing, there's $20.5 million in revenue sharing per school with the majority going to football. I'm sure some schools are finding workarounds to pay even more than that. If you can't find a $1 million+ for the running back room out of that, you're going to fail. It's as simple as that.

Edit- As far as I understand the rules:

1. There's a cap of $20.5 million revenue-sharing bucket per school shared among all sports programs.
2. There's an "NIL collective" pot which is uncapped.
3. There's individual NIL deals, presumably negotiated between athlete and a specific brand or appearance, also uncapped.

I believe #2 and #3 have to pass through a clearinghouse to determine that each deal is at "fair market value". How they determine what is or is not fair market value, I have no idea and seems nonsensical.

They auto stamp 95% of the deals, you gotta be pretty egregious to not get cleared.

If you can't find a $1+ million pool out of that for the RB position, you're doing something very wrong. And our nearly $1 million GM would be severely incompetent.

If anyone wanted to read the fake numbers,
"The ranges below represent what teams expect to pay for what they consider good, solid Power 4 starters in the transfer market, but values vary depending on a team’s roster budget, the player’s role, the scarcity of the position in the market and how a team values positions. And there are always outliers on both ends of the spectrum."

QB range: $1 million to $4 million, but potentially higher for the top players
OT range: $600,000 to $1.3 million
Interior OL: $200,000 to $700,000
Edge rushers: $500,000 to $2 million, $250,000 rotational
Interior DL: $500,000 to $1.5 million
RB range: $400,000 to $900,000
WR range: $500,000 to $1 million
TE range: $300,000 to $900,000
Cornerbacks: $250,000 to $1 million
Safeties: $250,000 to $900,000
Linebackers: $200,000 to $750,000

Why do we have a need at TE? Markway, Lindenmeyer, Echternach, Nelson, and Ingwerson are all back. Danny King also listed as a TE. Yeah you take a TE if he’s a difference maker, but Lindenmeyer is your starter and he’s going to end up on an NFL roster. I don’t say that about many of our players. Nelson and Echternach have played a lot with Echternach being a better blocking TE. I expect Nelson’s role to increase with Haarberg's departure. I’ve heard they really like Ingwerson as well but he hasn’t been able to climb the depth chart. I have no idea if Danny King will ever play or not. Didn’t we take another TE in our high school class?
Lindenmeyer isn't a downfield threat. Nelson is undersized and hasn't been able to be healthy. I heard markway was moving to defense. Not sure of the validity of that. I think it's a mistake to not value TE or rb. Position coaches are suspicious too

I got my information from a guy who lives in Lincoln and writes big checks to the AD. The story about Raiola getting 3 million/ was spread by his agent. Published NIL values are guesses.

What TE in the portal who holds up in run blocking AND is a downfield threat did you think we should sign ? Give us the name.

Donors have pledges to the athletic department correct? donors also contribute to NIL right? You could ask a donor to transition their donation from athletic department to NIL, and make cuts in the atheltic department to cover such lost pledge.

yes you can make the numbers work with atheltic department cuts.

Coming from a guy that claimed Rule was the highest ranked recruiting RB since Lucky. And claimed Rule had a scholarship offer from Miami Florida. Then when proven wrong said he didn’t look any of it up, he just made it up. So now your doubting the media’s due diligence when your too lazy to use google
