One GM said that portal options are now being explored by NFL talent first before declaring because of how low rookie contracts are for mid-late round dudes.

Dudes are going to be able to retire without ever playing in the NFL

Texas got ripped off. $3.2 million for nothing.

You’re comparing the #1 recruit in his class from a legacy family name to a guy who was a 3 star recruit out of HS and drafted last. Not really apples to apples.

Purdy will be making 200M in 2 years.

Why roll the dice if you get a mid to late round grade when your school is going to guarantee you 6 figures to stay in college for another year.

NFL is all about fit, coaching, and luck. If you get picked up by a bad organization or a team loaded in your spot you may be awesome but not make a roster.

Y’all are comparing endorsements vs nfl salary. But forget to include the endorsements they will make as nfl players also.

That Chris Law idiot has since admitted he actually doesn't know how much Arch made on NIL this season, and unless Arch is lying..it's already been put out there he won't do NIL until he's playing. He did do a thing for charity, thats the only NIL I'm aware of. His fam is more than capable of supplying him with a nice apartment/car plus spending cash, it's not like NIL is critical to his college experience. He along with his entire fam know the real money comes later, there's no way any college player is making more than an NFL starter.

There is a zero percent chance this will last, they are getting virtually no return on their investment. Right now it’s new and teams are willing to throw money at players.

People just don't get it. Even if arch never starts a game here his value was in his name and the hype that surrounds it. His commitment started a snowball effect of highly ranked recruits to Austin. When you consider how much money programs spend on recruiting it was actually pretty cheap.
I think he'll turn out to be a good quarterback but, even if he doesn't, the recruiting wins because of his coming to Austin make it well worth it.

Prior to Joe Burrow's big contract, there was something like 19 college FB players making more money than Joe.

I forgot the exact number but it was something crazy like that...it was in the teens for sure

and of that, 3-4 of them had never played a single down

Only one of those two will play in the NFL.

Arch has to get his bag now.
