Oh my. I gotta say I would have been very sad had he decided to transfer but I'm extremely happy he decided to stay. But damn that was a hell of an offer. Not sure which school it was though.
Sellers
- Thread starter gamecockblack
- Start date
I believe he was tampered with, but can't believe the price. 8 million seems really way too high.
It is ridiculous to me that these conversations even happen but I am nearly 58 years old and don't understand how the hell we got here. What I do understand is I give a shat way less than I used to. And I hardly ever watch the games anymore...
I was wrong guys so I wanted to correct what I said. Clemson offered the money. Sellers dad confirmed it. Sorry about that. I had heard Georgia talked with Sellers and pushed hard so I assumed it was them.
I would believe UGA long before I'd believe Clemson.
Elsewhere, it was reported the 8 million offer was for two years, which brings it back down to the realm of being reasonable.
Considering we are reportedly paying him 3.7 million a year, it's in the realm.

I am sure the factor of Beamer giving his Brother a scholly, is a reason he would stay in Columbia
I thought I deleted that post above. It was Georgia. A CU fan I know sent me an article from some insider site he's a member of that named Clemson as the school that offered $8m but a UGA guy I know debunked it with more credible info after I posted the above. Sorry for the misinfo. Hard to know what to believe.
I just talked to a relative who is a sports reporter for a major paper and he told me without a doubt it was the Dawgs. Should have consulted him before I posted the CU rumor. Sorry guys. I try to be accurate when I post but got snookered this time.
Still don't know what to believe, even the amount of the offer! If it was someone saying, "we could offer as much as $8 million" it doesn't mean there was an offer of $8 million.
Agreed. Because if I get life changing offer as a sophomore Im gone. Gotta strike while the irons hot. Never know what tomorrow holds. So I don’t believe he had a 8mm offer in hand.
It would have to be 8 million for two years.
I simply can't see someone paying sellers as the highest paid qb in the country. His season wasn't THAT good.
But 4 million a year? That's just about what he's making here (according to some reports), so that is perfectly reasonable.
