Blue Hen QB greats :
between them :
Super Bowl MVP NFL MVP Most TDs in a post season Most TDs in a post season w/o an interception 3 time AFC player of year award NFL rookie of year
1 Super Bowl champion 1 NFL season passing yards leader
......and, of course, places like Delaware will not be able to develop and 'keep' players like this anymore. They will , simply, be purchased off the roster by the mega $ big time portal/NIL factories in today's CF climate. No good.

Didnt Flacco start at Pittsburgh? But i get your point - I don't like where college football is heading even though my team is one of the biggest buyers out there.
Story I heard this week. There's a young lady from Cincinnati who was Miss Basketball the past 2 years in the state of Ohio. She committed to play at the University of Cincinnati despite overtures from many of the top programs. Apparently UC paid her $250,000 in NIL money plus bought her family a house. Xavier University, where I worked, has an NIL pool of $35k for women's basketball - they dont have a prayer playing in the Big East.

Correct, doc. Joe did spend freshman year at Pitt. Yeah, 35K isn't going to buy much success. The portal and NIL stinks !
