Well, Emory Hunt certainly has a different perspective on this season’s hierarchy in the G5 as compared to other sports writers.

CFB has said best home city gets the first round game i believe, regardless of seed… so for example Tulane Nola would get a good chance at the home game if they are final seed …not sure if that means they would play in Superdome.

Wonder if really any other G5 contender city would have a shot, unlv of course, UTSA maybe, san antonio is a well thought of tourist city, Memphis??, Not sure.

Deion’s shtick getting old, now he has a reporter banned from asking questions because he is critical of the program.

Ga Tech giving FSU all they want in Ireland, 14-14 at halftime. FSU hit a 59 yarder to tie it up as time expired.

This is what will eventually kill NIL.
(admittedly, I know this is 1 game and it’s still early…but what if this production were to continue)

How much NIL money did he get to perform like this??
What “whale” funded his NIL?
Is that “whale” happy at how his money was spent?
Is that “whale” gonna pony up again on the next incoming stud player after this money was basically flushed down the toilet?
Was his NIL agreement for multiple years even if he continues to suck and gets benched…if so, is a "whale’ gonna be happy his millions are being wasted on a bench warmer?

Such a waste for such uncertain performance.

And seriously…the best athletes are motivated. They are usually motivated to work like crazy and push themselves due to the NFL dream.
If a teenager gets his bag…and this bag is that huge…does he have any real motivation to continue to work and do the things he needs to do to get better and succede?? Not like the athletes had to do before NIL. NIL will convert formerly “hungry” athletes into comfy and satisfied athletes. Is there any real reason to bust your @ss if you already got your bag? It’s the same reason so many high draft picks flame out in the NFL…just a bigger scale of course.

Hopefully…we will see more of this and the NIL sh!t will go away sooner than later (or at least go back to what it’s original “intent” was to be).
