DB Ja'Had Carter / Portal from Ohio State to NC State

[OrangeXtreme]

had some private chats with people that this one was coming. Believe it or not, Syracuse has done an “okay” job with mitigating losses so far. This one hurts. Fingers crossed we don’t see a wax departure over the next week.

Portal shouldnt open before bowls.

Bowls? Do those still exist?

Yup if Im a coach Wax would be one of the first SU players I went after.

He’s the kind of player SU has to really try to keep. I think second unit guys are going to be very good but they should be working to keep him.

Get Nebraska on the schedule and send a message. They arent half the team Purdue is

Are you optimistic about Wax? Any other names? If Wax and Caleb O. return, they will be the leaders of the Defense (along w/ a healthy Stefon). If they leave, they're starting from scratch.

Wholesale roster changes between end of season and bowl games is wrong.
This NIL/portal stuff may be right in theory, but the execution is toxic to fans.

My info I get is purely about players on O.

If I’m Syracuse with the resources I know are at their disposal, I’m focusing on securing Wax now.

Players are getting taken care of NIL wise. I sometimes wonder if defensive players are at a disadvantage.

Grass ain’t always greener. Football isn’t plug and play. Might not fit into the next team’s system the same way.

Ouch

Gotta believe if Nil resources are available, that is being shared with Wax right now. It’s also a plus we have 4 stars coming in, he is seeing what Swag and staff is doing. Wax can see Syracuse is pulling talent in. Caleb staying as well has to help. We are making it tough for Wax which is good.

Bummed about this one, had been fun watching Carter grow. Was a difference maker this year. Really shined during our tough stretch.

These teams know that SU is in a tough position to match these offers.

You guys have to realize that the Mob cast became self promotion. It was marketability. They became attractive to teams. The podcast allowed them to showcase their personalities.

Funny, I thought they were nice young guys having fun and all about the 'Cuse. You know, the TEAM. Ohana. The Mob. I don't know Ja'Had, his motives or his family situation. But if you're right and all the SU hype in the podcast was to game SU fans and front for a portal bag, I never would have watched. My respect for that would be exactly zero, if true. Hopefully it's not and Wax and Obe are genuine 'Cuse guys. Unreal.

That’s it. Last straw. I’m done watching college football.

Until 11:30am tomorrow

I'm calling b.s. - you're going to refresh this forum 100 more times tonight and that's basically like still watching CFB

Can’t match all, need to target.

 

[bigmike]

it’s all about the brand. I’m a brand, you’re a brand, everyone’s a brand.,, now,

I need a refresh.

Jesus the guy wants to be a HC. Most likely he’ll be taking over a team that’s bad. Who is there better to learn from than Matt Rhule, who is a turn around specialist. Sure he’s getting more money, a title promotion, but this fits what he needs to advance his career.

People need to lay off the resentment.

Yeah, let’s be real, Matt Rhule is a perennial winner and Dino is… not. If you’re offered a great HC+double your salary? You’re not staying.

 

[PAcuse]

Enjoyed watching him, wasn’t even thinking he would leave.
This is now college football.
I wish him the best and for his time at Cuse.

 

[Scooch]

This is precisely why (a) you gotta take advantage of opportunities during the season, because there’s no continuity from one year to the next, and (b) it’s silly for people to project how the next season will go until spring.

 

[cusefan88]

Best of luck to Carter. Hope he gets a big bag and can help his family out.

This is a harsh take. I know we’re all frustrated but the guy spent 3 years here and he did a great job for us. I’m disappointed but I’m not mad at him.

And even if he stayed these kids would all still be portaling. They are getting that NIL money they can’t get here.

Have you heard anything that makes you lean one way or the other on Wax?

 

[Chip]

Now that the momentum has begun, how do we know they stay? They gone.

The people that transferred in are going to leave and sit out a year?

Great take.

I wonder with all the players choosing to sit out the bowl because they're headed to the NFL and now combined with all the players that won't be in the bowl b/c they've entered the portal. If this will impact a lot of the bowls and if it does, there will be a reaction to at least when the portal opens because of lost revenue.

Betting becomes way more fun
