Boom! We need to help get as many kids signed up for his camps and corporate sponsors as possible.

Share on all your social media and contact business owners. We need to make it worth his while.

Or just donate to his venmo.
Agreed.

Honestly what kid that plays football in this state isnt going to want to go to this camp? Every kid just got to see him catch that pass to out us in position to win. Every kid in this state wants to be Taco Dowler!

Yes. Get the players out in the community as much as possible to create more young Bobcat fans and help train the next generation of Bobcat legends! And if the players make a little NIL money in the process, fantastic.

Hopefully he gets some positive responses. I'm not in X and don't have kids at home, but A. This would be fantastic, and B. Apparently he is staying!!

I believe Carr was the first of any of the players to put out a social media post that he's staying.

Reed Harris looks like he's getting some huge money to go to ASU, no surprise there.

Any news on Hayden Hanks from anybody in the know?
Link on how much Reed might be getting, and how it's structured? I honestly have no idea how it works, if it's multi year, if there are stipulations, injury clauses, etc.


Nothing is public as far as how much he is getting. Can only go off of what top 5 portal WRs are getting paid. It's easily $500,000 plus, I wouldn't be surprised if it is around $1million because he is regsrded as a top 15 portal player overall this year.
From all available sources, ASU doesn't have anywhere near the NIL budget to pay a single guy a mill.
20 mil annually.....you could pay a guy a mil
22 starters plus presumably some of the backups & special teamers are getting paid too. Thank you for proving my point: With a $20m NIL budget theres a 0.0% chance that a WR is getting paid a million bucks. A QB or blindside OL? An edge? Yeah, maybe ASU scrapes together enough for one of those guys. Not for a WR.
They also can have another $20 million in revenue sharing. My understanding is that is separate from nil.

I'm in for the Taco Dowler adult football camp as long as there's plenty of medical staff on hand and a post-camp buffet table with all the tacos we can eat!

Sorry to see him go, but he should get a good degree there. Hopefully he found what he was looking for. He'll always be a National Champion, and had HUGE play to make that happen. Best wishes to Jhase.
Ugh. UCLA? They're not very good. I really hope they are paying him at least 100K. WIshing Jhase the best and will never forget the blocked FG.
UCLA is one of the best universities in the world. Maybe he’s considering his education to be important?

A degree from UCLA gets you a job in California, that’s it! Nobody else cares!
A degree from UCLA gets you a job anywhere you want. It’s harder to get into than Harvard and offers an excellent education.

How does the Hardship Waiver work? With being a senior, he was done, but decided to transfer for one more year?

Jackson was never going to be a starter here. Good for him to get a shot at Mines.
