Class of 2023 QB LaNorris Sellers (SC) Flipped to South Carolina

I've clarified it if you looked at my other posts.

The play calling this year has structure. It has plays that set up other plays. It has misdirection and uses the strengths of the players within it.

Nixon's been great. Having players that can do what you want them to allows you to be creative with play calling. Having a QB with a damaged shoulder and WR's with stone hands does not. Comparing Beck's ability with last year's players to Nixon's ability with this year's players makes zero sense.

Why are we still talking about this guy?

I think this an easy case of recency and confirmation bias. The plays worked because of the execution of an incredibly talented QB not in spite of him. For some reason you are just ignoring the obvious. We were 7-2 in one score games, same plays with any other QB we lose 4-5 more games.

Didn't pay much attention to NM this year to be honest. But in the lens of "how many times did i yell at my TV for a play call that made no sense" it was a lot more limited this year.

A lot different when you have a passer than can do the things that McCord did for us this year. It's like a manager with a good bullpen vs one who doesn't have a good bullpen.

We're not. This thread is way off the rails.

If Beck stayed on as OC this year, I do not think we'd have anywhere near the success we've had with Nixon this year.

And if we had Nixon last year, he would've figured out a way to get the ball out quicker so Shrader wasn't running for his life every play before getting injured.

I would love to see Nixon call an offense for a dual threat QB and I'm excited to see it next season.

Whatever, doesn't matter. We're 10-3 and changing the reality of the past can't be done.
PS: McCord's coming back next year...

Interesting to perhaps only me, but our old QB commit apparently made $3.7 million last year.

Dybantsa isn't even in college yet, what are these numbers?

Are valuations just estimates?

Creepy!

She’s a marketing machine and probably the only legit influencer of the group. Not sure what’s creepy about it.

Carson Beck NIL is grossly overrated

Yeah I wouldn’t give him a bag of returnable cans

Estimates of what they think NIL may be potentially worth, but not an estimate of what they actually make.

I'm confused. Are these figures for the upcoming season, or the ones that are just ending now?

 

[dan7800]

Definitely off. No way Sellers is a top 10 valued player in CFB.

She deserves the money she makes, sure, that's the point of NIL. She can take advantage of her name, image, and likeness in a way that most other athletes cannot.

But how is it "well worth every cent"? She has never come close to the individual podium in her time at LSU. She wasn't even a competitor for their national championship winning team this year.

Sorry if I misconstrued the point, but to "well worth every cent" came off as creepy.

She's kind of the modern day Anna Kournikova but less skilled in her sport than Anna was in the grand scheme

She's the only one on the list that is THE face of a national brand and in every commercial for them. I'd have no idea that Vuori existed if not for her commercials.

If you paid her 5 mill in NIL would you have gotten 5mill in value from that? Who paid her the NIL? Was it that company she is in the ads for?

You're getting the value from her social media presence. Not her athletic performance. Which is technically what NIL is for.

The irony is that her NIL is actually being used as intended - companies paying her because her likeness is a marketing tool. Many of the others are just regurgitated booster payments under the new model.

I get that her athletic performance isn’t necessarily driving the marketing opportunity (say as if you dumped a Caitlin Clark back into college hoops), but the NIL is being provided for the companies to gain from a marketing perspective rather than to influence her to go to a school.
