2026 VA RB Savion Hiter (ttun Verbal)

I agree that that the lawyers are chomping at the bit. But as just posted in the NIL thread that because the sports media in 2025 sucks I did a deep dive on the legal implications of the House Settlement. I found there are valid legal reasons to believe that at least the limits on NIL payments the CSC is trying to impose will be approved by the courts. Right now OSU (meaning the Board and Ted Carter) are supporting that effort.

However, I don't want to dump any more unrelated information in a player recruiting thread. If you are interested in why, respond to my post in the NIL board.

As I mentioned in another thread, I've been away from this board for a couple months. As such, I wasn't sure where the discussion of the House Settlement was taking place here. A search right now showed me that this was the correct thread for that discussion. So first off, I apologize for messing up the other threads with this information.

Because I had some previous work experience with antitrust law and lawyers, I was confused by the sports media's reporting on the House Settlement. That resulted in me engaging into a relatively deep dive into the legal aspects of the House Settlement. As I mentioned in the other thread, I think that the OSU decision to play strictly by the rules of the House Settlement is being made above Bjork and Day. (I.e. The Board and Ted Carter) They are making this decision to retain unique nature of the college sports experience (which is what we love about the sport) and by doing so allowing it to retain it's value. After all how much will the TV networks be willing to pay if college football is perceived only as minor league for the NFL. (How many AAA baseball games are televised nationally.)

Is it the right decision? I don't know and it certainly a risk. However, there are legal reasons to believe that is a risk that will pay off.

The problem is that certain schools, including not surprisingly TCUN, has decided to try to push beyond the House Settlement limits.

Appreciate the insight. I find it funny that so many fans were so willing to throw Bjork under the bus(and still are) because they need a boogeyman to blame. I think many of us are waiting for the other shoe to drop when it comes to the settlement because it seems like the "wild west" of NIL won't ever stop, and how high will bidding go, when they are a handful of programs who are willing to spend without a care just for bragging rights.

Btw you didn't mess up any threads, you actually had pertinent information regarding a recruit who essentially won by a big NIL deal

Week 0 Game Discussion Thread

Hawaii with the walkoff FG to beat Stanford 23-20
Click to expand...

Just found this

Hawai'i kicker Kansei Matsuzawa decided he wanted to play football after taking a trip to the West Coast and catching his first-ever NFL game - and the rest is history

After returning to his native Japan, Matsuzawa taught himself how to kick by watching YouTube highlights of Seahawks kicker Jason Myers. After practicing in a local park and sending highlight videos out to more than 50 colleges, he finally got an invitation to kick from public community college Hocking College in Nelsonville, Ohio in 2021.

Matsuzawa became a kickoff specialist initially at Hocking College and would eventually work his way up to being the main kicker before getting an offer from Hawaii in 2023. Fast forward to Week 0 of the 2025 season, and Matsuzawa found himself in a position that most kickers dream of...

Two seconds left. Tie game. One kick to win it for your team - and Kansei Matsuzawa nailed that kick, giving Hawai'i a dramatic walk-off win against Stanford to open up their college football season

What a moment
