things I could see:
-big schools pay to stash and call up projects at smaller schools
-hs kids start taking “gap” years to develop more before starting their eligibility clock (they already do but take this way further)
-only the elite of the elite go straight from HS to major college sports.
-the rest find homes at smaller schools and lower levels, ironically enough raising the quality of that product.
-or less and less guys go on to play college sports.

Some or all of that. Likely 9 or 10 things I’m not even thinking of.

It’s a real issue though. No doubt.

So he's looking for school #4?
Just looked him up. Apparently he left FAU while questions arose about a $20000 loan he took out for a clothing store that didn't exist. FAU's school paper wrote about it and received a cease and desist notice from him as he was headed out the door on his way to the Zips.
I see no potential problems with this young man.

Thank goodness… with 51, 75, 67 and 77 back next year we will have some options. Hopefully we can land just 1 more OL with the kid from NW. that’d give us a lot of options considering we’ll have Padilla and Ian Moore back too. Legit can get a best 5 from 10 or so kids

As long as a player doesn’t catch a case while on the roster, I really don’t give a shit what they do.

Only $20k? Rookie numbers there. I'm passing on him for not being smart enough to defraud more than that.
