Yet to be contacted by Herman? What are you talking about?? This kid has been a priority target for years, on campus multiple times.
 
I don't think you do the Matt M thing if the Bama rumors aren't a strong possibility.

How does the NCAA allowing getting paid for endorsements in college change the recruiting landscape?

Uhhh because the schools with the largest and wealthiest alumni groups will be paying kids ridiculous sums of money to be their spokesman for their auto dealership or computer company or construction contractor or oil company etc etc.

ahhhh….to be young, athletic, 6'5" 300lbs..and mean as a snake.....
 
Brock is Brock. You'd have to know him to know what I mean. He's got a little bit of baggage at the University but it shouldn't prevent his son from going there. Heck, he's already got one there.
 
Sorry guys, been under a rock,,,are these two brothers/twins or what? thx

The word is that they will more or less set prices for what can be paid for certain types of advertising. More or less, fair market value. So if they determine an hour of autograph signing at a car dealership is worth 1k, that is the max that any kid could get for doing that event regardless of school.

Now, how they go about determining and enforcing that will be a different story. And you know everyone will be looking for loopholes.

Lou, Tommy Brockermeyer and James Brockermeyer are sons of former UT great Blake Brockermeyer. I believe they are brothers, not twins, but they are in the same grade. Tommy is the number one offensive tackle in the nation and James is the number 2 center in the nation

Texas is certainly in the running, and have the benefit of Blake playing for Texas as well as their older brother Luke who was a walk on who was granted a scholarship last year. The brothers are looking around at all the national powers (Clemson, Bama, etc) so there is reason to believe they end up elsewhere.

I should have been more specific.

How does the UT fan base being one of the largest in the nation, and endorsement deal(s) potential based on those numbers, counter the outright buying of player services by other teams without a comparable fan base size.
 
it seems that some secsecsec schools have been ahead of the curve in making sure that players get "compensated" for their likeness.....so if a players likeness appears in their football program photos, they get …."compensated"

Because we will be flat out buying players.


Wipe that surprised look off your face. You heard me.

We will get all our big money donors and our lawyers to find every fvcking loophole in the NCAA code as well as the tax codes. The first five years or so of this will be the wild west. It will be an arms race. There will be billions and billions of dollars paid to players over the first five years. Every swinging dick with an axe to grind and dreams of a natty will be forming LLC's and LLP's and Ltd's in order to siphon money to that 5 star QB or running back or all American linebacker just so he won't go to Alabama or Clemson or Ohio State. This new rules helps only the largest and wealthiest schools---- like us.

Expect our brightest legal minds to subvert every rule without actually breaking it.

Clob….I am not saying that wont happen....I am thinking that I am afraid that it WONT happen. We have fallen victim to the idea that WE ARE TEXAS and we don't need to do that sort of thing. I say.....time to show em that if we do want to do that sort of thing there isn't anything that can stop us....
 
Another thought is, does COVID change where kids go?

-Kids stay closer to home?

-Kids with unemployed parents chase the money more?

- a mix of the two cancelling any overall affect out?

This will happen. We are going back to pre-scholarship limit dominance. Book it. I don't know about billions but it could be hundreds of thousands per player. CDC needs to get out in front of this and arrange for all Texas players to get the MAX!! This will ensure we have a solid team top to bottom. We can sprinkle in some extra for the future VY's but Texas has no peer in the financial world. If we do this right, we can be winning titles every year.

With the endorsement deal, every Texas starter should make about $100K each, with select few getting really big money. We have the boosters and business men to take full advantage of this and playing these kids. If I was Ossai, I'd go around offering my services as a spokesman at every Texas Ex owned business in Austin. Use my likeness I'll be a spokes person Etc. Going to the NFL should be a pay cut for him.

They can take care of their parents over the next 4 years even if they never play a down in the NFL.
 
There was an interesting post on Surly about the 3 big festivals(ACL, SXSW, JMBLYA) and money paid to influencers to attend sponsor events and be seen with, and post to social media about, product X can be much higher than traditional endorsement deals and there are very few schools that can compete once those kind of influencer opportunities are considered.

We haven't even scratched the surface as to how much money we are going to be able to spend on these kids. Think about Formula 1 and when it comes to town. If you've got a possible Heisman contender on your team and Ferrari wants to do a home town party and attract attention, how much money do you think a kid could get offered to show at that race and get the home town TVs to tune in. The arms race of college football is about to begin.

Texas football is about to be back and there is nothing the egg heads in Belmont Hall can do to screw it up. It's going to be 100% private sector. I don't see any other programs that will match our money. Aggy will be #2.

There era of the underhanded sec cheating is about to end.
 
How much did you say?

EZCboIzWsAArfYH




Brian Carrington is about to prove he is the most valuable recruiting asset in CFB
The above is just a small sample of what he is showing recruits.
 
Dont believe it?...look again....

Damn!....it will not let me copy and paste Carringtons tweet to recruits. You can see it at Horn Sports under the non recruiting thread page 145.

He says(as I try and remember what he says)

Recruits...Can you say show me the market? Show me the platform? Because Texas can....and he uses a money bag emoge...
 
I'm telling you guys--- this is about to be the fvcking wild west. And someone smarter than I should come into the forum with an idea on how we as a board can profit from this WHILE helping Texas land big recruits. Seriously. What is there MM-- 30-40 of us that post here on the regular? What's 10 million split 40 ways? 250k? I've got zero problem starting an LtD or LLC with 39 partners.
 
Dammit Clob! You have made it clear on this board from the beginning that there IS no one smarter than you....rats. It sounded good for a minute.
