I feel like the settlement explicitly disallows this type of thing now. Doesn't it?

not bad:
wow, had some impressive throws into tight windows
I watched it when I saw this comment. I’ve never seen somebody have bad form on a trap bar deadlift, especially when using the elevated handles. That was crazy.
His arms are so bent of those hang cleans he’s upright row/reverse curling them.
The base strength is solid though.

pure stud:
Some really nice accurate throws. I might get shredded for this but the one thing that gives me pause at the next level for him is that his delivery is on the slow side from what I see. This might cause some issues at the next level as overall speed and reaction time picks up. It'll be interesting to see how he progresses mechanically because if he can get the ball out faster with that truly impressive accuracy he showed he will be an unbelievable QB. Definitely like what I saw though.

The Jeff Johnson article and reported leak from Tate on Altmyer's NIL paycheck (short version: Altmyer getting $1.1 million from Illinois. Tennessee offered him around $2.5 million and turned him down) is the perfect example of why the program needs to (continuously) improve their prep recruiting. There is great value of getting these players early so you can maximize your cost value of keeping your stars instead of trying to acquire them in the portal.
The bigger thing is we need to keep putting dudes in the league. To use BB’s words, it’s only worth it to take less “instant” NIL money if we’re proving we can get you the “forever” NFL money.
Relationships are worth a lot, but not enough to close that gap if we stop putting guys in the league. If that happens, you better go get that paycheck while you can.

he'll learn how to spell it:
He's got his hands full spelling his own last name. I'll give him a pass on this one
when/who was the last QB who started a game for us that was a prep recruit ?
yeaHe's got his hands full spelling his own last name. I'll give him a pass on this one
no worries
way better than writing Illinois University or saying “ Illinoise “
thx
Juice 17 years ago
but as I thought about it Nate Scheelhouse was after that tho
Isaiah never started for us , did he ?
point remains - most of our QB’s have been transfers the last 15 years
