Re: Recruiting for 2022.
I have a good friend who is very well versed in the ins-and-outs of the NIL. He has told me that schools can and will negotiate these deals on behalf of their students athletes and will very likely begin to include them in a package when the kid signs his LOI.LarryTheAggie wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 1:24 pmI thought they had rules against using NIL for recruiting or the University being involved in the NIL deals.
I think the NIL deals are probably a good thing, but there should be some better guidelines. This is getting out of hand.
Let the athletes get in campus before being contacted for NIL. And don't let the universities be involved to use them to recruit.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Oh no doubt. Recruiting will now come down to whom is setting up the most NIL money for most of these athletes. And like @Aggie84025 pointed out there is a ton of donors with dough from the Y that live and die by Cougar athletics and they will be a major player.aggies22 wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 2:19 pmI have a good friend who is very well versed in the ins-and-outs of the NIL.

No doubt UofU has their fair share of wealthy donors and the real holy war may now heat up between the donor groups of these schools and who is willing to fork over the most money

Not good. Going. How can we compete against a team with a little more money.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Honestly, not sure how it won't be, it's sad It's pro sports without a salary cap. Seems far fetched, I know, for a small school like USU it is. But think about a school like byu-p with all the alumni and devout LDS members "obligated" to support the LDS school. I think the byu-p donors desire to fit in with the big boys will have them paying top dollar to all their athletes. Not sure how they get around the honor code, but money to players is how they get around everything else wrong with their institution and will allow them to compete. I wonder how badly someone like the new jazz owner wants byu-p to win? I don't think we have any donors like that.aggies22 wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 3:00 pmMy friend predicts it will be the beginning of the end for college football and hoops.slcagg wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 2:38 pmNot good.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
I think when everything is said and done, the advantage will be no bigger than it already was. Time will tell, but there are many factors that could lead to problems for these schools throwing money at recruits.
And really, are we at much more of a disadvantage?we are still competing with Nevada and UNM for recruits most the time, and we’re doing fine with those recruits.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Schools scoff at your "rules". There is a zero percent chance that there is a single school that will not use NLI in recruiting. The emails and communications will never come from an official university source, but beyond that it'll happen ALL THE TIME.LarryTheAggie wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 1:24 pmI thought they had rules against using NIL for recruiting or the University being involved in the NIL deals.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Ryan Smith has said publicly that he cares about 4 things in life: his family, his religion, the Jazz, and BYU athletics. He has and will continue to pump A LOT of money into BYU sports. I wouldn't be surprised to learn he has donated an amount equal to or greater than our entire athletic budget to BYU.Aggie19 wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 3:08 pmHonestly, not sure how it won't be, it's sad It's pro sports without a salary cap.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
There's already been a BYU-provo donor step up and offer the equivalent of full ride scholarships in NIL payments to all preferred walkons in the BYU football program to be "ambassadors" for his business. That essentially gives BYU unlimited scholarship offers to extend.Aggie19 wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 3:08 pmHonestly, not sure how it won't be, it's sad It's pro sports without a salary cap.

I'm anxious to see the billboards in Provo with 35 big hulking walkons promoting the latest and greatest pyramid scheme.
And as far as how to get around the honor code, they just don't apply it to their athletes. It's only meant for regular students who get tattled on by their holier than thou classmates.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
It will just bring it out of the shadows. There was an article a couple of years ago, can't remember what magazine, with a title something like "Confessions of an SEC Bag Man". Unofficial alumni networks operating without the knowledge of the university administration or the athletic department (nudge nudge, wink wink) were handing tens of thousands of dollars out to recruits and varsity athletes. Every SEC school had its network. A lot of these guys actually know each other. It's like legalizing drugs. It wasn't going to go away anyway. At least by bringing it out into the open, there is some hope of regulating it to some degree. That doesn't make it good, and it doesn't mean that this won't generate a whole slew of new and bigger problems.newhouse9 wrote: ↑November 8th, 2021, 5:45 pmCollege athletics, at least at the "elite" level (P5?) will just become semi-pro, and is already in essence.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Here’s the one thing that gives me hope. Each team does ultimately only have so many spots to give. There are plenty of fantastic athletes in the nation, and many that want to play the sport because they love it and get a good education on the way. They are going to be hard working and appreciative of the opportunities they have, instead of being divas worried about their next paycheck and deal.
I’m not saying this isn’t going to suck and make college sports less fun to follow, what I’m saying is I don’t think the little guys are completely out of competition because of it. There are TONS of talented athletes, so USU needs to find the right ones who fit in Logan. We’re in a good place with decent support as well, so we won’t have nothing to offer (but undeniably less than the 2 schools down south). I do wish there was a cap though.

I would not say you are a small school at all. You have a competitive athletic budget in your conference..I think you will still get good recruits and be fine.

USU has always performed well above its paygrade. Keep being superior at finding/developing undervalued talent and outcoaching the competition and we'll continue to be competitive.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Right now - I wouldn't care if our recruits going forward were one of two types of players:
1) The Justin Bean, Brennan Ray, Eric Franson type that can score in the post, play physical, and most importantly - rebound;
2) Guys that can shoot - guys of all sizes 5'9" -- 7'0", doesn't matter. A good mix of heights would be preferable, but the most important trait that they have is the ability to shoot the 3 at 40% or higher clip against mid-major college defenders.
That's all we need. They can be taught everything else. You can't teach shooting proficiency and you can't teach toughness and rebounding. Either you have those skills or you don't.
1) The Justin Bean, Brennan Ray, Eric Franson type that can score in the post, play physical, and most importantly - rebound;
2) Guys that can shoot - guys of all sizes 5'9" -- 7'0", doesn't matter. A good mix of heights would be preferable, but the most important trait that they have is the ability to shoot the 3 at 40% or higher clip against mid-major college defenders.
That's all we need. They can be taught everything else. You can't teach shooting proficiency and you can't teach toughness and rebounding. Either you have those skills or you don't.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Exactly. It’s not like we are getting top recruits or ever really have, so we just need to keep doing what we’ve done. Find and develop talent, play harder than the divas.

Chandler committed to BYU. I hate BYU, but Pope is doing a stand up job down there. He probably has a hug NLI MLM partnership all lined up.

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Here is a kid who loves Utah State basketball (and football). In fact USU would be his first choice over any other school. Yes, undersized, but a really good player having a great senior season so far. I might know him..

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
How well does this kid shoot? I found a could of sites that detail how many shots he made, but not how many he took.Cougargradaggiefan wrote: ↑January 17th, 2022, 9:46 pmHere is a kid who loves Utah State basketball (and football).

Re: Recruiting for 2022.
Good shooter. Probably around 38-40% from three. More of a true point guard with a pass first mentality but on Skyridge this year he has had to take on more of the scoring at 19 points per game but still averaging 7 assists.dirtnsnow wrote: ↑January 18th, 2022, 9:45 amHow well does this kid shoot?
