Rosa, Edwards, Ross, Rante Jones, Lundt, Senn, Fortin... the RBs were at least committed under RE2.0JM pretty much cleaned house. Anybody actually left from Edsall 2.0?

LOL, no I'm sure I'm right.You should not talk about things you don't know much about. He has a good arm and is a winner. If you looked at some of the best quarterbacks in college are the same height as he is.
Rosa recomitted to Mora. Edwards was a Mora recruit.Rosa, Edwards, Ross, Rante Jones, Lundt, Senn, Fortin... the RBs were at least committed under RE2.0
Not dumb at all, and someone else will answer more lucidly than I. Still, my answers to your question are: yes for Turner, yes for Joly, and very highly concerned for the last part.This is a dumb question, so forgive me, but are these players entering the portal because they don’t get enough playing time (like Turner) or because they think they can do better (like Joly)? In other words, how concerned should we be to see these players leaving UConn?
I have not looked into any the details on NIL contracts, but I would think everything happens under contingent installments such as:I really like idea of the money being contingent on the player staying with the school.
You sign your 4 year contract as a freshman for X dollars.
After your sophomore year of dominance, you enter the portal and get offered 3X more dollars to play for Y school.
As part of the contract you signed as a freshman, you must pay back the money to the collective(s) that signed you for the transfer to be approved.
This would allow collectives to at least be able to reallocate that money into a different player, not being left stranded with no options.
What’s the downside of this?
Give me mercenary that will pass for 3500 yards.
10 players passed for 3500 all season. Carson Beck has 3495 so I’m counting him as well.
Until we start expecting 18 year olds to behave like adults they will not. In HS there are boys' and girls' sports. In college, men's and women's. Full stop.That was a joke, right?
Max Brosmer, UNH 3449. In the portal10 players passed for 3500 all season. Carson Beck has 3495 so I’m counting him as well.
So true. Many are raised with the only virtue being getting what’s mine.. loyalty, commitment and paying your dues are for old fashioned fools.Until we start expecting 18 year olds to behave like adults they will not. In HS there are boys' and girls' sports. In college, men's and women's. Full stop.
Sorry to be so old fashioned.
About 2100 kids transfered last year.The transfer portal is going SuperNova this year. I cannot believe the number of kids transferring......those that thought the COVID years would have a one time inflationary effect are gonna be in for a big surprise.
It's like if you registered any sort of fair to middling stat line in the '23 season you're shopping it. Unreal. The QBs alone.....Mora should legit be able to throw a dart and pick off no less than two kids. There's no reason to go into next season without an actual-factual viable signal caller.
Interior offensive line looks to be a particularly fertile position group this year.
Somebody get the Mashantuckets and Mohegans on he phone STAT.
Yes, that was my point. Sorry if I referenced the wrong formI would think this is 1099 income rather than w-2....not that the distinction matters for your point that it is documented and reported income. Kids are about to learn about the tax man.
Have to say i totally agree here. He was buried behind a bunch of transfers who did very little. Porter and Burns? Really?Can’t say I’m surprised by Kevin Clercius going. Last year, he made two of the three biggest plays our offense made to get us to 6-6. The long sideline reception against Fresno and the late post TD against Liberty (the third being Jolly’s run after catch for the early TD against BC). This year, he barely got a sniff while we lost game after game running out Porter who contributed very very little. One weird part of the year is how many players who helped us to 6-6 last year got buried on the bench while we started 1-9. Again, maybe each individual move made sense but very weird.
If it's 1099 income they can offset it on their 1040 with all kinds of expenses. W2 income is THE WORST type of income from a tax perspective.Yes, that was my point. Sorry if I referenced the wrong form
The downside is you won’t get the player because someone else’s alumni will offer the money without strings attached.I really like idea of the money being contingent on the player staying with the school.

Clercius drop % in 2022 was 17.2% which is way too high plus he had a fumble. And, he had a couple of drops this year so I think the coaches lost confidence. Porter's drop % this year was 4.3%.Can’t say I’m surprised by Kevin Clercius going. Last year, he made two of the three biggest plays our offense made to get us to 6-6.
