He was never leaving.

Forgot to say this, nice to have you back

Still amazed about the media brown-nosing for Heupel/UT when I'ma'leave'ya transferred.

SEC and integrity have always been antonyms.

This goes into more depth on the whole situation. Sounds like it wasn't a holdout, just left UT for the portal after months of issues.

Why Nico Iamaleava soured on Tennessee and ended up at UCLA

I wonder if that means Trae Taylor is unlikely

I'm afraid the Texas A&M money will be overwhelming there as well...

To their credit, maybe Colorado is preparing a Cash back offer?

It’s Nebraska and us

I hope not

Money obviously will be a factor but that’s not what the decision will be made on. He’s turned down his biggest offer

 

[Joel Goodson]

Taylor: I love our Plan Bs, but if we land him, that would be flippin' huge. drive to Lincoln is infinitely more painful than Champaign. plus, there's legacy opportunity. for a high character kid like Taylor seems to be, that probably matters a lot

His family drives to Michigan every weekend to train with his qb coach. Driving isn’t an issue

Michigan was long considered the favorite. What happened there?

[illini0440]

I still think it'll be Nebby though. But we shall see

Been a Nebraska lean for a while, but these recruitments aren't over until they're over... re: Colin Dixon, Malik Elzy

 

[mhuml32]

Haven't felt good about it since it was openly discussed that he was focusing on Michigan and Illinois, and then an entirely different list came out a couple weeks later.
