Wilson's days were numbered when he decided to play the surly old man role and not embrace NIL. If you're not going to utilize NIL, you better bring in enough talent to win without it, and that's virtually impossible. ANd even harder at a place like Tulsa

Coaches, especially assistant coaches, don't get involved in player contracts in the NFL.

College coaches should take a lesson from that playbook if they want to keep practicing their craft. Let a GM and his staff recruit and pay the guys the coaches say have the talent to play here. Then the coaches who actually know the X's and O's can do their thing and not have to shake their fists at clouds anymore.

I agree, but let’s be honest, a program like Tulsa isn’t hiring a GM. And kids will be lucky to get an NIL deal from Big Al’s Rib Shack

That's why a school like OSU should be stashing kids on the Tulsa's of the world roster for just enough over Big Al money that it makes sense for everyone

What would be amazing is if a place like E Tennessee State could develop some great diamonds in the rough and a very pro-Buckeye staff like Eddie George could understand the current climate and really build something. I imagine collusion being a serious issue but hell, they allow blatant cheating everywhere else so do it and deny everything if an issue arises.

Sounds like the perfect NIL feeder to Ohio State no?

Edit: Evidently we're on the same page @Jaxbuck and @pnuts34

If us 3 idiots can think of that, I wonder if some of these coaches have as well. Or if they’re another year or 2 away from that type of strategy. I’m sure we’re about 5 or so years from the full B1G/SEC break away from the P4, and the creation of the super conferences in CFB. And the rest of the conferences essentially become the minor leagues. The amount of outrage being thrown about over Boise State getting a bye, and SMU even being on the same field as Ped St is over the top. And if 1 or both of those teams gets blown out, it’ll be a long time before they’re let at the big boy table again

That’d be great! And btw he’s at Tennessee St, the one in Nashville. I say that, not to correct you, but to mention the fact that he heads a program in a major southern market surrounded by some elite talent. The fact that we’re even talking about this makes me think that Kirby is colluding with Kennesaw State or Georgia Southern, or that Heupel has an in at Austin Peay
