Anyone making bank in CA is going to be footing the bill for everyone else. No way in hell would I move to CA at this point and time. The thing about living in a higher tax state like CA is that you have the opportunity to make way more than you could anywhere else. Depends on your circumstances of course, but it's not as simple as "taxes are higher so then you're poor." 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get it, but I doubt any college athletes are basing their decisions on taxes against their NIL deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can make way more than anywhere else... doesn't apply to NIL in any way, but ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, so you think they are stupid? If you are basing where you are going on "how much money you are getting", why wouldn't you care how much money you are getting?

If I'm expected to make it to nfl and making millions I'm going to the school that gives me the best chance to achieve that. Not worried about an extra 10% on a NIL deal. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea but I would think programs would want him to be able to enroll for spring to have a chance at starting so being a late graduate transfer doesn’t sound promising for him. He’s had a lot of injuries during his career and its just kinda dumb luck he was hurt again and a walk on came in and snatched his job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were right on that one. You've overall had a good track record of predicting coaches but I just don't know if that streak continues with CBH. Just kind of depressing how USCe is (albeit narrowly) projected to be ranked and we're not. https://www.secrant.com/sec-football/2022-way-too-early-college-football-rankings-from-espn/100723117/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pay scale doesn't really apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it's very possible that AU starting QB next fall will be a backup from another SEC school ( Calzada or Finley). Doesn't exactly give hope to fans or strike fear in opponents.

Gives hope to me. Plenty of backups would've won 10 games for us this past season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, I misunderstood what you were saying. No, I don't think those particular backups win 10 games at Auburn in 2021. Calzada maybe, but I wouldn't say that with any confidence, no. I do think that, with a lot of learning moments under their belts and a full offseason in our system, and with Austin Davis as their position coach and Harsin calling plays, and with better receiving options than we started with in 2021, they could be 10-game winners in 2022.
