Just heard them say on CFGD that Maye turned down $5million to go play with a national champ contender.   Wow.  Said could not to that to Chapel Hill.  Rare guy.

He is getting close to that at UNC this season. 
 

schools are not supposed to be offering NIL money to pay for play but we all know that most of the NIL deals are just laundered bribe money.

Man that's a high character guy! I probably would have taken that money and ran.

Maye is one of the highest compensated players this year in CFB. UNC had to offer him competitive money because that’s just the way it is now and it’s bad for business if they ain’t paying their stars. 
 

Bama and UGA were trying to buy Josh Downs last year. High character guys staying committed. Hopefully Ian Jackson is on this mindset.

haha, i completely forgot UNC probably compensated him there for a minute! I was under the mindset he turned that money down and UNC just gave him his education and some love. Im still trying to get used to this new paying college players stuff!

TCU's D sucks too. They were the #91 ranked scoring D in the league last year, but Max Duggan and company made up for it until they ran into that UGA buzzsaw. Duggan ain't there anymore. I was kinda surprised to see them ranked in the preseason to be honest.

Their offense doesn't look too bad, though.

Granted, the end zone pick was bad

I think it's clear you hate Deion Sanders.

 

It's like you think he's just a normal coach. One of the most flamboyant players in NFL history and a HOF. Of course he will be on camera a lot!

Yeah, I don't like people who are pieces of poo. 

I didn't mind him until he showed his true self when he took the Colorado job. The way he treated those kids is just inexcusable.

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
