Hope we can add Gibson and Fitzpatrick while also getting some combination or all of Womack, Fort and Hall on the inside for 2026.

Honest Question….i don’t know if it applies to Jacobs but just a general question going forward…..Are teams gonna start giving players NIL money to cover their tuitions so they can add Scholarship level talent as walkons even when they are at 85?

Yes, I’ve read that Florida is doing it with Cormani McClain because they were already at 85 scholarships.

I saw where Cormani signed with Florida. Tells me just how desperate Billy Napier is right now to sign that total head case/cancer in the locker room.

Man what are you talking about. Kid is a freshman. He wasn't a locker room cancer. What did he do?

He is walking on at Florida.

120 plus schools decided not to offer him a scholarship.

Weird, huh?

There's also all the reports that he only participated in school and football when and if he felt like it, got high around the clock, and was just kind of a dick in general. It's certainly possible that this is all overblown because Deion responded to him being unhappy at Colorado the way a malignant narcissist like Deion tends to respond to anyone whose opinion is anything other than "Deion is the greatest" and has been trashing him in conversations with reporters and other coaches, but based on his lack of interest in the portal I'm guessing there is some truth to it and he's probably just a lazy a-hole whose only option was a desperate Sunbelt Billy.

So tell me what he did to be a locker room cancer? We are also in the NIL phase of college football and im sure he was asking for money which he doesnt deserve because he wasnt good on the fileld. Not to mention Deion putting it out there that he doesnt want to work.

By no means do I know the deal with Cormani so I could be wrong but hard for me to believe he got no offers. Sounds like the kid wanted to be out of Colorado and probably close to home and Florida was out of schollys. There is absolutely no way on earth I believe Auburn, Miami or Ole Miss passed. Freeze and Freshwater would definitely offer him a scholly or NIL package sight unseen based on their behavior. I personally don't trust Deion but it sounds like both camps spinning. Anyway the kid doesn't seem like linebacker material so who knows what his deal is.

Deion also put out there that he was repeatedly late to and or missed team meetings, even after receiving warnings. He also insinuated that he faked illness to miss practice time, or just hid to avoid practice.

Including Bama, which lost 7 players at his position. If anybody could have used a 5 star recruit back there, it's us, and I don't think we ever gave him a serious look.

When o e says locker room cancer I view someone who is probably fighting other players and disrespectful coaches verbally think like that. Just seems like a kid who is lazy and doesn't care much about his craft.

He had a TERRIBLE attitude. Skipped meetings, didn’t want to listen to the coaches-thought he could “free style” it out on the field (with disastrous results), refused to study film, mouthed off to the coaches and felt rules didn’t apply to him. Off the charts arrogance.

He wouldn’t have lasted 5 minutes at Bama with Saint Nick. I’m pretty sure he wouldn’t work out at 99.99% of the schools out there.

I don’t think he had very many schools interested in him due to his delightful attitude.

Don't trust the words that come out of Deion's mouth. I don't mean this in defense of McClain, again don't know what his deal is, but you should always be skeptical of Deion.

He did all of that and still saw the field? As far as playing for Saban we've had knuckle heads that were headaches I remember Nudy telling a story about cursing back at Nick Saban in an argument.
