All those posts and Luke Lowry never figured out/no one pointed out that it's "xxxxx planS to enroll early"? I know it's not important, but really?
Now I'll reply to my own post:

Sounds like it.Is he a wisconsin lean?
Also good timingCoincidentally, my kids, class of 29 and 33, will also be on an unofficial visit for the PSU game.
Listening to 101.1 in St. Louis and they were talking about Mizzou and NIL. They said that in the fine print of the Missouri NIL legislation, it allows recruits to receive NIL money as soon as they sign something with the school such as a Financial aid agreement. They are saying how it gives them an advantage in recruiting because kids can start making money before stepping on campus. Does Illinois have similar legislation?
I don't believe Illinois does yet, and most states dont. Mizzou has worked well with in-state legislatures to skew the NIL rules for them. It's no coincidence they are getting CBs from in-state 5*s (Williams Nwaneri and Ryan Wingo). They had a huge NIL package for Luther Burden as well. As much as it pains me, they are using NIL to their advantage as well as any school for in-state recruiting
Getting a few 5* recruits means nothing in the SEC. Everyone has them. Coaching and development matter more. Just ask Texas A&MI don't believe Illinois does yet, and most states dont.

To be a superpower, you want both the raw 5* talent and the coaching that can develop it.Eh, getting 5* means something in every conference. Talent is always important
I don't understand the state role here. If the ncaa and conference say you keep your eligibility under that circumstance than why do you need a yea or nay from state.Listening to 101.1 in St. Louis and they were talking about Mizzou and NIL.

Money to athletes has always been about eligibility issues.
I don't think you understand my point. Why can't an Illinois player do that? He can work at Dairy Queen or sign an NIL deal.It's about timing. In Missouri, recruits can earn NIL $ when they are still in high school if they sign an LOI to an in-state school. So, potentially 6+ months before they enroll in school (when they typically can start NIL). In the big picture, not much difference, but in the very near term, you can bet they sell the heck out of that, and it is clearly making a difference
Student-Athlete Endorsement Rights ActI don't think you understand my point. Why can't an Illinois player do that? He can work at Dairy Queen or sign an NIL deal.
What am I missing? What is the state allowing that is illegal?
What's the point here? That his HS team is ranked #1 or is there something about Petty specifically that I'm missing?
Rivals is showing Trey Petty took a Mississippi State visit in late July.
Is this the kid who camped with us the same week that Lightfoot visited?Brian Robinson, Kentucky Wildcats, Edge
