Shock jock Ketch, dude is so full of shit.

I only know about him from the outside looking in. How plugged in is he and does he actually have validated sources?  Or is it more of I heard something and Im going to throw a lot of shit against the wall and see what sticks?

The bold is Ketch in a nutshell

I know its not portal related but was enjoying watching my old favs.  Eric Metcalf.  In case anyone is interested.  I still do not believe I have ever seen a more graceful runner.  His running style is undeniable. 

Video is great. Whatever that "music" playing was is complete trash.

Not sure this is the correct thread for my questions.

Does the current academic semester have any bearing on when a player can safely enter the transfer portal?  Should a player wait until the current semester is complete?

Has a date been established for the actual move to the SEC?

No. Though lots of players will finish out a semester at their school before enrolling in the new university. They can safely enter whenever they want.

No, date set for SEC move. 2025 at the latest. Lots of hints of it possibly being as soon as 2023.

That was fantastic.  I loved watching him play and run.  I remember Earl Campbell and he was great but Eric was just graceful and so fluid.  It was like watching living poetry.  Thanks for sharing.

Also, SHA I will take that beer from you and watch from the fenceline.

I honestly don't get why Rosie Leaks doesn't get more love. I remember when he debuted. I was an instant fan. Nobody could stop Rosie Leaks. He was the man.

Then came Campbell. Like a true fan of a player, I initially viewed Campbell as a threat to Leaks' job. I wasn't keen on him because of it. I was Leaks through and through.

Then Campbell was inserted into the punt return team on the fly against Arkansas. Campbell blocked the punt and we scored. At that moment, I rationalized the whole situation, decided there was room for two great backs. I became a Campbell fan, too.

Funny because I had seen Campbell play high school ball. I knew how good he was.

But I still remember fondly Leaks racking up first downs and touchdowns. I wish more thought of him this way, but I'm afraid what Campbell did following him, overshadowed him.

I think it sounds more shocking than it is. If he is talking about 1st round signing bonuses, the number could be 5 million. Talking about low end first round salaries, 10 million. So saying the number 1 QB in the nation (as a recruit) signs on with prospects to make 5-10 million over 3-4 years isn't that outlandish in the current NIL environment. 

Now, if we are talking number 1 pick overall money, 30+ million, then whoa!

I suspect Ketch is no better or no worse than most any other site owner. Except that he owns the biggest Rivals or non-Rivals site bar none. So I'm guessing something must have stuck ?

Glad we are finally acting like it. 

As long as it is legal, let's throw this money around like crazy.

Aggies won’t go away quietly on this money chunk.  They have some heafty boosters and they have done alot of this when it wasn’t legal.  So this ain’t their first rodeo ??

Kind of gives a new meaning to "winning at any cost" ?

Strange self promoting post. I hope it's at least somewhat correct  

 

[Austin Horn]

I’m not buying that

I will be sure to tell the random youtuber who made this video 15 years ago you think the music is trash ?

Sounds like it could go as high as a brazillian dollars.
