Hopefully he doesn’t get injured because you are having at least 2 transfer out, that 4 star prospect out of California is probably looking elsewhere.

He absolutely will. Kid is a statue back there, line is trash and nobody is going to stay at Texas to play QB with NIL Ewers has been guaranteed the starting position

he better start by winning the locker room, this kid is Tate Martell x2

I do wonder how this works. No way someone pays Ewers $4M if he isn’t starting. That said, is Sark going to guarantee him the job? Does whoever is paying the NIL and Sark agree that’s going to happen?

Cannot win the locker room when you are making considerably more than anyone on the coaching staff and almost as much as the HC. As an 18 year old

I hadn’t heard of him getting paid, but I think part of NIL makes it to where it can’t be contingent on starting or stats?

You haven't? People who get paid to cover uta football have been bragging about the millions they offered Ewer for a couple weeks. It's a weird deal. Here's one example:

Oh maybe it’s because I don’t pay attention to anything Texas. Can’t really stand anything about any of those schools. Listening to podcast by a Texas fan and he had Texas ranked above Arkansas the day after we beat them and that perfectly wraps up every Texas school to me.

I'll admit to not really understanding how NIL works. My initial assumption was that players could have outside endorsement deals. I didn't know that schools could pay players directly. If so, college football is going to get divided into "haves" and "have nots" pretty quickly. Even with TAMU being in the "haves" category, this is going to be terrible for the sport long-term. Hopefully, a bunch of schools get burned early and reach a gentleman's agreement to stop doing it. Maybe an agreed-upon stipend from the school, then outside endorsements on the side as they arise for the top players.

They can’t pay players, they would have to pay all players because of title 9. That’s why we haven’t had paid players before.
All we did is allow them to make money off their name, image and likeness.
I am wondering can we buy jerseys with players names yet though?

The $4 million is a bullshite figure made up by Liucci to make Texas look desperate. Ketch is an even more pathetic version of Liucci and will do anything to get subscribers.

That is something that should DEFINITELY be allowed. This whole thing is going to screw Texas worse than anyone. They already have the most meddlesome group of boosters in the country. Now Sark is going to have to try to recruit and coach while simultaneously dealing with the wealthy donors who have made financial investments in individual players. He's screwed.

Could end up being a great pick up by Sark. If a guy like this wants to come... you absolutely take him. No question about it.

They'd better get that OL fixed before they start SEC play or they're going to have to pick Ewers up with a mop. A slow QB behind a shitty OL in a league with the best DLs in the country is not a good combination.

Source? Like usual, you're full of shite.

Two oil men bought competing 5 star quarterbacks? Couldn’t happen to a better university.

You think that multiple industry insiders, from Texas, A&M, Ohio State, Tech, and elsewhere, are all saying that Texas is paying Ewers millions, and they're all in it to make Texas look desperate? Is that really your story?
I hate to tell you, friend, but Texas IS desperate.
Did they also fabricate the "come play OL at Texas and we'll guarantee you $150,000 per year through this charity" story - you know, the story that came directly from the uta athletic department? How dare them work so hard to make Texas look desperate!
A backup offensive linemen is guaranteed $150,000 (A fact that Texas not only admits but publicizes!), and yet you're skeptical that Ewers is getting millions?
You're in total denial about the state of your football program.

Still waiting on an actual source. What Tech was willing to offer him is irrelevant.

You don't see the difference between $4 million and $150,000? Quinn was always coming to Texas, he even wanted to come back before enrolling at Ohio State but was already in too deep. So yes, saying we needed to pay him $4 million to land him is a false narrative. Liucci made up the $4 million and then publicly said that our other QB commit, Murphy, should transfer on twitter...just pathetic.
We can afford to legally pay our players (y'all chose a different route), I guess using NIL to our advantage is desperation? Get ready for a whole lot more desperation because these pockets get a lot deeper.

I'm not saying Ewers isn't going to get paid a lot of money, but if you think we needed to pay him $4 million, you're high.
