Hate to say it, but I'm okay with it. He was above average at best last year, and in no position to ask for more.  IMO.

Am concerned about what's left, but we will see.

May be the best decision JH has made. Goodbye and good riddance. Maybe Nico will live to his hype somewhere, but he was mediocre here. Aloha!

Who is going to pay him what he wants? What school thinks he's shown that he deserves that money? One with a top-notch Oline?

There are several schools
It will be an interesting bidding war, for others

He has already been shopped around
That is one reason why Heup and the school dug their heels in

The leak to on3 is what upset their plan
The school had already said NO to the 40% increase
It sounds like that team Nico (run by his dad) were going to wait until tomorrow to walk out, till the leak.
Then they really handled it VERY badly, going silent, right after a QB dinner the night before
Even if Heup, the school and Spyre were still of a mind to increase the NIL a bit, that flew out the window faster than Nico running OB as time expired at Arkansas (EVERYBODY (women included) in my section was going WHAT THE fizzle?!?)

I would expect Deion to go after him to come to Boulder.

He was a starter at top 10 Tennessee....A program would be stupid to have someone that did what he did in their program.

I've seen this several times so I don't know who originated it. Credit to whoever did. Or whomever.

I'm sure one of his selling points is "how many other freshmen QB's were in the playoffs last year"? Even though we know the running game and the defense is what got us there. Plus a favorable schedule. Hope it helps us this year, the schedule is about the same.
