Bryce Underwood (QB ttun)

It's been said, rightfully, that the rising tide lifts all boats. In this case, the cost of poker has gone up to all of the Xichigan recruits. "yeah, well, you're not worth what we paid X to come here", may resound in Ann's Arbor. Believe what the above contributors say, in that he's gotta start next year (who'd be stupid enough to pay $10 mill for someone to sit on the pine?), and if the supporting cast not so great around him, might spell a little discontent among the monied fans. I'm unclear whether it's a per year or per lifetime at Wolverweenie school. That's a big hunk of cabbage that has to be raised each and every year....
I get that Underwood is a great talent and ttun desparately needed a QB. But aside from what other recruits may demand in the future, they really busted the bank for one player and won't have much for others. Basically if they were playing Monopoly, they bought Park Place and Boardwalk up front, except in this analogy they get only one property.

In contrast, you have TSC. He is going to get his NIL for sure but not like Underwood is getting. Sure we're fortunate TSC was in-state and wanted to be a Buckeye his whole life, but the point is we then have much more funds left over to go around to other positions. We'll see if that risk pays off for Underwood but I'm glad it is not OSU that is doing it.
