Sounds like our collective is playing hardball with NIL contracts and players are realizing they aren’t quite as free to transfer as they thought. Strong chance Nolen, Diggs and Bisontis come back.


Diggs to Syracuse.

I’m not sure why our fans are getting hopes up that any of these kids are coming back

Bisontis just withdrew his name from the portal, so you never know. Not sure what I think about that. Maybe he can be a good guard with some coaching.

Bisontis is a great one to get back. We need OL depth and he still has real potential

Stew is supremely talented but he’s frail and an attention whore.

Raikes is gone. Weird. I always thought he played too many snaps, but think it is a pretty big lose with Nolen & McKinley gone.

Dindy & Hicks need to be players. We will know for sure next year one way or another.

It’s not hardball, it’s reality if if you lose the School, you lose the NIL money that came with that school

So you better have a higher offer out there if you’re all about the money. And with the 12 team playoff coming, there are lots of guys wanting to jump Shipp from mid-level programs to grab someone’s spot in a top 25 program.


Our collective has told guys trying to transfer that have deals with them that they will enforce their contractual obligations if they transfer. Meaning, Walter Nolen would either be forced to return to CS while playing for another program to fulfill his obligations OR his new school will have to buy out his contract with our collective.

Bummer that Fisher's offense and his offensive staff flopped so badly and completely wasted a rare collection of raw talent. He had everything at his disposal to do something special and all he accomplished was cashing in a massive buyout

OP updated following the second guy leaving for Bama, sure hoping now that the full staff is in place we can get after the scraps left in the portal, lots of shoes to fill.
