and an 8th was Smoke Bouie (transfer)

Bouie was not an NIL bid.

He was a favor to a booster in Bainsbridge who cared about the kid.
It was a last ditch lifeline to help the kid.

Bouie would have never been brought in if it wasn't that request. As it was, the leash was short.

Will Kirby do someone a solid like that again in the future? I don't know. But it was not anything that I had seen in the prior 7 years.
