Yep. And 2024 OL Ian Moore.Hopefully, Luke Burgess.
and hopefully keep Iowa away from themYep. And 2024 OL Ian Moore.
They were in last week. So was Ohio State.and hopefully keep Iowa away from them
Notre dame been to see him?They were in last week. So was Ohio State.
Doubt he goes to Iowa. He wants to stay closer to home.
ND, Michigan and Ohio state have visited in the last week, but not sure if they were all in to see Burgess, or if any were there for Ian Moore.Notre dame been to see him?
Pretty sure it was a joke. He does have at least 1 brother Im aware of but, but I believe he graduated last year.Who is speaks brother or was that a joke?
Yeah it was a joke. He had twin brothers that graduated last year. They are recruiting the 2 OLs.Pretty sure it was a joke. He does have at least 1 brother Im aware of but, but I believe he graduated last year.
Tennessee offered both of them today.and hopefully keep Iowa away from them
are they good students?Tennessee offered both of them today.
I think so. Moore got offered by Minny and Cincy tonite.are they good students?
I think so. Moore got offered by Minny and Cincy tonite.
I think we have as good a shot as anyone. He’s told people he isn’t going too far away.Think we’ll have a good shot with Burgess?
Finally offered Moore yesterday. Not sure what took so long.and hopefully keep Iowa away from them
Finally offered Moore yesterday. Not sure what took so long.
After Pack, that is my question with any recruit or transfer anymore, football or basketball.Doesn’t nil change a lot of this?
Yes, if for no other reason than he’s gonna be a national recruit. He’s better than Burgess right now, even though he’s a year younger.Think that’ll be an uphill battle?
Talk or not they better have cash. That’s why I almost think if purdue is gonna go into this process spending 1/10 what Ohio state spends, you’re better off spending Ohio state money on 3 players and then taking a bunch of 5.5 RR Pat Fitzgerald type of kids than trying to spend “meh” money on 25 recruits.After Pack, that is my question with any recruit or transfer anymore, football or basketball.
Do our coaches talk about this with potential recruits and transfers right now on visits?
Do it like the NFL does: spend the majority of your “cap space” on the premium positions: QB, LT, WR1, EDGE, and CB.Talk or not they better have cash.

Just like in the portal. Better off taking money for ten meh transfers and breaking the bank on 2-3, then fill out your transfer with guys with talent who lack leverage
I think for us that might be different. QBs wanna come here regardless, so we might spend more on RB and OL than another school in our market level .. no?Do it like the NFL does: spend the majority of your “cap space” on the premium positions: QB, LT, WR1, EDGE, and CB.
Eh, there are lots of RBs out there. But I’m fine with the backs we’ve had historically, for the most part, other than when they were all hurt.I think for us that might be different. QBs wanna come here regardless, so we might spend more on RB and OL than another school in our market level .. no?
If we were buyers I don’t know why one wouldn’t want to buy players at positions you don’t normally recruit well.Eh, there are lots of RBs out there. But I’m fine with the backs we’ve had historically, for the most part, other than when they were all hurt.
My prediction is that you aren’t getting studs for free, at ANY position, moving forward.If we were buyers I don’t know why one wouldn’t want to buy players at positions you don’t normally recruit well.
No I know, I’m talking about the players you pay the most for.My prediction is that you aren’t getting studs for free, at ANY position, moving forward.
Yeah I would say we can MAYBE get somewhat of a discount on some QBs with the Brohms here… that’s it tho.No I know, I’m talking about the players you pay the most for.
follow me here. We won’t have to pay anywhere close to the NIL money Iowa would for a QB. Jeff brohm put David Blough and likely Aiden “Wheaton college” oconnell in the league. If you’re the QB and you pick Iowa over Purdue, that NIL money might be all you get.
would you rather have 300k and a way better shot to showcase for the league or 900k and who knows?
The opposite applies for us vs Iowa at LT
no?
I’m only suggesting some discount. We won’t need to pay a QB half of what Illinois will to have him line up behind 6 OL and two TE.Yeah I would say we can MAYBE get somewhat of a discount on some QBs with the Brohms here… that’s it tho.
And also depends on how proven a commodity they are coming in, obviously.
The reality is… there are guys already in the program that we won’t be able to keep for free…I’m only suggesting some discount. We won’t need to pay a QB half of what Illinois will to have him line up behind 6 OL and two TE.
I’m not naive enough to think we get the next allen for anything close to free.
Oh I totally agree.. but we were just taking incoming guys. I’m watching the portal until the May 1 deadline. It would be an unbelievable blow if Jalen Graham was to go in.The reality is… there are guys already in the program that we won’t be able to keep for free…
I'd spend the money in the trenches. That's what matters most in the college game. Without the trenches, your skill guys mean nothing...Do it like the NFL does: spend the majority of your “cap space” on the premium positions: QB, LT, WR1, EDGE, and CB.
Ok but even then … with hagens track record I don’t think we’d need to spend nearly as much on a good DL as we would on a good OL.I'd spend the money in the trenches. That's what matters most in the college game. Without the trenches, your skill guys mean nothing...
Lots of paranoia here. Show me where guys are transferring to P5 schools for 50-100k paydays? Then, show me where they are leaving to go from 1 mid level program to another? As good as Graham is…elite programs don’t need his services. He’s good but he’s not as good as you’re imagining.Oh I totally agree.. but we were just taking incoming guys.

if this was a year from now we’d have to likely match offers for Graham, Allen, Johnson, Oconnell, Wright, Thompson and Hartwig if not more! Oconnell and Graham being the biggest
I can’t show you any of that cause it’s new. My list was based on what’s gonna happen once you have a year of spending like what I think we will see.Lots of paranoia here.

You’ve created a market in your head that just flat out doesn’t exist.
Who is the 3 star DT?I can’t show you any of that cause it’s new. My list was based on what’s gonna happen once you have a year of spending like what I think we will see.
none of it’s happening now. It will. And people will wish they were paranoid enough when it’s time.
I wasn’t saying 100k I was saying 100 as in 100% or the largest deal. In 12 months Aiden Oconnell May have cost a million dollars. Maybe things do calm down and he only cost 100k to retain. But I’d bet on the former because you’re dealing with unstable ass holes raising the market because you only need one guy to do that.
a 3 star DT got 500k to sign .. you don’t think Someone would have offered the QB right behind CJ Stroud and Bryce young in QBR a million to leave??
Let’s agree to disagree. The DT is from an athletic headline posted on KHC.Who is the 3 star DT?
Even though the $$ seems to be flowing you still can’t pay all 85 kids on all 130 teams six figure pay days.
I’d suggest ratcheting down the paranoia. It looks a lot like that “Purdue has only 6 quality starters” BS and Drivel you posted last year. I’ll eat my shorts on this message board if somebody ever writes Garrett Miller a 6 figure check to play college football…at that point we will know it’s out of control.
and on AOC…I do see a point where schools will throw cash at a QB when they desperately need one. AOCs not that type of dude to chase the $$$ like that IMO. Even if he was…I think Alabama would have had to know he exists to be interested…lol
I thought his name was Happy?I think it’s going to be driven by guys like buddy from blue chips, who are now billionaires.
Oh shit I’m thinking of buddy the goat from buddys dispensary in San JoseI thought his name was Happy?
I need to go back and watch Blue Chips again. Sort of like watching Contagion during Covid.Oh shit I’m thinking of buddy the goat from buddys dispensary in San Jose
