Yet he was crystal balled to Miami just this morning. Strange for sure.

I hate the Browns so much…lolz.

Took Togiai with late rd pick, threw him on practice squad for (2) years and never gave him a real chance.

Now he’s a borderline pro-bowler for Texans and a game wrecker.

We can’t have anything nice…

Saw this on e!spn. Came here to see what’s really going on since I haven’t followed recruiting much at all since COVID. This is exactly why.

Commitments mean zilch nowadays. Would be cool for the Bucks if he stuck, but reading what he said, he’s about as committed as I am to not inhaling about a dozen Oreos washed down with a glass of chocolate milk tonight around midnight.

I guess I didn't see it like that. Though I think he should have to pay back what they paid him. And yes, that would be WAY worse for CFB. My bad @TampaBuckeyes I see your point

It’s not ‘pay back what he was paid’. It’s pay back whatever repercussions are in the contract that he signed. In this case his contract was similar to a coaches contract where the buyout starts high and goes down with time.

If he was coerced it is one thing. A lot of contracts have been voided due to signing under distress, but high profile athletes have more leverage than the schools in these negotiations. They also have agents and/or lawyers. If UGA gave him a contract and he didn’t like it there were dozens of schools he could have gone to.

If there are extenuating circumstances where UGA violated his rights then yes there is a legal battle and the athlete has some leverage. But as it sounds right now he signed a 1 year deal with UGA and then left after a couple of weeks for a bigger bag. At that point UGA is now out a starting DE for the next year and their window to find a replacement is gone. They are entitled to his buyout money.
