NIL is, and I quote, "The Wild Wild West."
It's absurd...
Well I hadn't considered the not qualifying academically angle that someone else mentioned, so it could be that.

We have to figure out a way to dish out more NIL money. It looks like we can't compete with these other schools when it comes to this. I've been hearing rumors we don't have a ton of NIL money to dish out for football. I don't know if that's true or not, but if it is, we have to figure something out or we will get crushed in the transfer portal football wise.
I doubt he is the opening day starter.
This is just what it is. We are in a Wild Wild West. We’ll be fine.

With all due respect to Kreutz, Barlev will beat him out.
Not worried about the OL, more so keeping watch on what happens on the DL
He wasn't even in the 4 deep at center.

Mebbe he won't, lol. Barring a portal add, how do you see center shaking out?
Adams at Center if they don't add anyone but I think they will.
Joel Goodson

Yeah, so do I. But if Adams moves to center, who takes his spot?
They are high on Whitnack, or you get another transfer tackle.

Maybe we can flip the Bloomington-Normal EMU tackle who just committed to Miznoz. That would be amusing.
Really high on Whitenack ... Kid is built like a tank ...
Scouts would love to see Adams play Center ... But agree, think they will wind up adding ...
You mean exactly what centers do?
Talking about in the shotgun, but yeah obviously(and joking at that).
Need to have the money before you can dish the money. Our boosters are nowhere close to the level of SEC boosters, from what I hear.

That he is, he is literally a giant in the land of the giants. But my question is can he move? BIG DEs are darn good and it's much easier to go round a mountain than through it.

Yeah, that's what i meant. we don't have the money to compete with a lot of schools.
