Maybe that's the company offering the NIL package.

He heard A&M was dumping a ton of money to get recruits and thought he needed a truck.

“Seal-O-Matic” because he’s about to seal the deal. Get it?

I mean, I’m not naive to what’s occurring all over the country, but isn’t that technically in violation of NCAA rules, state laws, and school policies regarding the use of NIL in recruiting?

If it works, why not.

If Coca Cola offers Bryce Young an NIL deal, do you think Saban no longer has a coke on the podium in his pressers? If that paving company also sponsors the university, there would be no difference.

Nick would just pull up in a Brinks truck (with the Bandit running blocker in a Dodge Charger). We can't afford all that pizazz in Missouri.

One of the top ranked OL in the nation nickname is Dump Truck.

I believe it's one of former Mizzou Tiger T Rucker's truck as part of his business.

I believe the NCAA's new policies say that programs have to follow whatever rules their schools have in place regarding NIL, and most don't allow it to be used for recruiting.

In this case, I don't really know what Missouri's specific guidelines say.

Either way, I'm not accusing them of cheating — I just meant that a head coach probably would not be doing this so brazenly, so there's probably some other explanation as to why he's in the truck.

Does the NCAA even have rules anymore?

Missouri saving money by cutting Drink's transportation budget.

"Hey, anyone headed out toward the high school? Oh, cool, you are, huh? Think maybe I could catch a lift?"
