Open your eyes man. I don’t love the money in college sports but I don’t blame any of these kids for trying.

Preferably one that runs and doesn't throw off his back foot

Like whom?

John Mateer
Washington State QB

Darian Mensah
Tulane QB

But BK is too scared to get a QB that would really push Nussmeier. See AJ Swann.

Quite a few Mock drafts have him as an early 2nd rd pick. Masson Smith contract included 2.6 million dollar signing bonus as the #48 pick as a comparison.

Like others have said if Nuss entered the portal he would be the highest rated player and could command 2 million.

No coveted starting QB is going to enter the portal to transfer to a school to compete with an incumbent starting QB.

What are some places he could he roll in to and prove this, in your opinion?

I disagree with your analysis. I don't know that LSU can attract a QB substantially better than Nuss. If LSU cannot, why spend limited dollars on a high-priced backup QB? Use those dollars on an edge or safety.

It's not fear that is motivating Kelly, it's common sense.

Where does one get the sticker prices for QBs?

What are the comparables that indicate Nuss is worth 2 million?

Is that 1.5 million in year one, or split over four years?

“Demanding” Name, image, likeness money is a funny notion considering that if a players value is actually legit they would be getting those advertising dollars organically. This just signifies how much of a joke “NIL” is

What a great point.

The news I gathered was that our offer for Underwood was in the ballpark of 1.5 per year.

This assumes a low second round high third draft slot.

He is 4-5th round right now. That's about 1 to 1.25 million a year.

One scout has him as the best QB in the draft. There are several sites that have him early second rd. I could see the Browns take him with their 2nd rd pick. One CBS analyst has him going to the Giants in the first.
All it takes is one team to fall in love with him. You think he is a better QB than Anthony Richardson?

They will offer Nuss in the neighborhood of $750K-$1 million which is a very fair offer on both sides. Remember, Nuss’s family isn’t hurting for money like some other guy’s families might be so he could opt to take the money and come back to develop and strengthen his draft stock so next year he’s a 1st round no doubt pick. I think the actually number cones in around $900K.
I thought I read somewhere he was at 1.3 this year?
