This is basically what Jim Mora said a year ago. "I'm going out and getting 15 or so Football players who are going to walk in and make a difference now". Look at the athletes that fit that bill this year and count how many guys were one and done. Jayden MacDonald and TJ Sheffield are the two who come to mind for me. Whether they have legit Play on Sunday potential or not, these 1 year guys are highly motivated to make their last one their best one.
Exactly you get guys that will step in and continue the success we've built so far. This shows that Mora is willing to whatever it takes to win and allows the young kids to develop too. Winning games solves a lot of problems.

Hostages for a full ride. Not the worst type of prison. But with NIL, no reason for an athlete not to be committed for at least two years. As far as how often kids change. listen to the line up announcements for the NCAA hoops games. But i see you are modern enough to stand firmly on money is all that matters and commitment is just stupid and old-fashioned.
Committed to who?
The $ don’t come from the school
As I’ve posted numerous times on this forum
The only way to limit the money through nil
Is to have the players become employees with set salaries which is a road they don’t want to go
Any attempt by the NCAA to have the schools collude to set salaries would not work due to anti trust laws
Imho the system is great!!

Skyler reaching out?


Kamoi Latu (safetry) played two years at Utah and two at Wisconsin. Was limited this year due to injury.

Damn people were right on here he’s not good enough to play here

We weren’t even involved so who cares?

BC improved dramatically when they benched him. 10 more points per game and less turnovers.

Bell seems to really love it here. He actively is recruiting other players. I love it.

He didn't fit the scheme O'Brien wanted to run. He has talent and will do well with a coach who uses his talents the right way. Mora seems to prefer a dual threat Qb and Castellanos seemed like a Mora kinda qb. Plus he had lots of experience which would have been a nice change after Roberson and Evers.

Can‘t wait to see Bell continue to develop here at UConn. Massively talented and will continue to elevate his game here at UConn. If you want to play on Sunday’s, you can do it here.
Need to get that man a QB who is accurate and can throw the ball to him. Not sure we currently have that on the roster right now. Land that QB and Bell's potential is limitless

I hope it’s Cole! Now Bell did drop some decently thrown balls this year.. several… but he also made some NFL All pro catches too… He needs more time and he’ll be a star!

Maybe if Aller comes back then Beau Pribula will portal and we can get a good one. That would be an amazing scenario.
Aller is officially back and Pribula in the portal...

This unfortunately did not age well. From being giddy on Thursday (me included) to what he posted for that other Wisconsin player to outright dejection now that he declared this afternoon his intent to enter the portal...maybe we misinterpreted what he meant (i.e., "hit me up, I'll go with you").

The milk has soured for sure. Guess lots of egg on my face here. :(

No egg mate, your heart was in the right place. Just means we can't go by whatever they post since it can change on a dime.
