I don't think the kid is going to be a bust. He was the best player at the All American game. We'll see, but I think he is a special talent that will be a difference maker starting this Fall. I could be wrong. Time will tell.

WTF is WRTS?

No, because this kid craves attention and is even going through the process of trademarking a stupid slogan. It's bad enough when college kids do that, let alone high school kids.
You honestly believe a HS kid filed the trademark application for WRTS? Or for that matter that Manziel filed one for Johnny Football?
OK, then.

I'm pretty sure you owe Daylon Mack's family $50 for using it. Just sayin'.

Pretty imaginative way to funnel money to kids isn't it?

Kinda. Clay Travis was the first I saw to mention this loophole, back in JFF's day. And it could be a serious consideration for a kid's family with little money. Personally I think the NCAA needs to relax the rules here and allow a kid to profit from his name (Screw WRTS - that's just stupid). That opens the door to abuses from boosters buying eleventy billion Daylon Mack jerseys, but the NCAA could put a cap on it. I don't see this happening, though. It would require at least doubling the NCAA staff for oversight, and in any case you know they'd screw it up.
I went way off on a tangent here, sorry. But I don't blame Daylon Mack for that nonsense trademark. And I still won't if he goes to the hated longhorns tomorrow.

I agree. Personally have no issue with any of it. TAM figured out a way to get around rules and more power to them. Don't have to be a fan of a school to appreciate good, imaginative recruiting. Its all fair to me. The kids are gonna get theirs one way or the other and I like the gamesmanship schools use to get advantages.
Auburn had a great tactic in the Trovon Reed recruitment. They took advantage of the situation at hand and it was impressive. Not gonna hate on it.
