We weren't the Crème De La Crème before Beamer and the NIL/Portal dumpster fire.
This is about money and shining under the brightest light to advance a career.
When people were screaming from the rooftops in the 80s/90s about evil big corporations eventually ruining our country, they knew exactly what they were talking about.
From DC to College Football to Storefronts, this is what corporate collusion looks like and it's not pretty or in anyone's best interests except for those who stand to profit.
Alex Murdaugh?
He had a killer season last year
Another thought. I pay $4,000 a year for scholarship, parking and tickets. Right now the only reason I do it is because my kids enjoy it and have favorite players. Who will they want to see next year and the year after next? They could easily lose interest as well since they don't have Wells, Harbour or anyone else they are familiar with the pull for. Won't be hard for me to agree with them and spend the money elsewhere,
Yep. Disillusioned parents wont raise kids who love Gamecock football (or most other teams other than Bama, Georgia, Michigan etc).
This will wreck CFB
There's no way Samson and Harbor are gone.....that's just insane. Why even have a football team anymore if its this bad.
Harbor isn’t going anywhere - where are you reading this or hearing this?
It's almost hard to blame any coach anymore, how can anyone trying to build a program coach a completely different team each and every year and expect good results
I'm just going by the rumor I saw online with Samson and Harbor, so far only Samson is confirmed. I hope he's not going anywhere, but nothing more than a rumor as of now on Harbor.
I'm sure most of you are content with the free board, but if you have a premium membership (or want one) we have more info on each of these, and potential targets on the Insider's Forum.

I can just listen to JC on his show and get the same information but better.
I’m sure Caleb appreciates you letting him know what you’re doing instead. He and the rest of us were wondering actually. Appreciate the update
JC has been doing good stuff for years. While we "compete" with them, I have nothing negative to say about anyone else who tries to make a living covering Gamecock sports. Hope you're contributing to his NIL fund if you're not paying for our coverage over here (though both would obviously be my preference).
Source? Who are the players? What are they getting paid now? What are they going to get paid?
It's money. We heard the same stupid rumors last year, and even with the coach leaving that was supposedly the reason, they transferred anyway.
Amount?
You talk about this all the time, yet have never provide numbers.
I call bullshit on anything you post.
Kornblutt reported $800k.
But you’re going to refuse to believe any amount if it works against your agenda.
No, I'm going to believe anything from you or anybody else with an agenda unless they offer some proof.
And if that is actaully true, it 100% supports my "agenda". And by agenda, I mean the fact that I've said over and over and over again that we need more money. If are getting outbid for players like Juice at $800k, we are in DEEP DEEP TROUBLE. Not a coach in the world is going to be able to compete with that.
He did pretty, pretty well. Doesn't give two hoots about us. Don't get upset about it either or Syvelle Newton will get upset.
He's 100% tater spreading doom and gloom on this site.
True. The days of the arhlete giving a crap about the school are gone for most, and dying quickly in the rest.
I forget, was the NIL one of Newtons temper tantrums recently?
We weren’t outbid that’s what we paid. At some point the players want to win as well as get paid.
107.5 this morning seems to be hinting toward another big name or 2 hitting the portal today....smh
If you ever get the chance, watch the 1998 movie, "You've Got Mail". Yes, it's a rom-com, not that there's anything wrong with that. But, it was also about "big, big, big absorbing the small". It predicts what you say.
Is there a metric to compare schools on the numbers and quality of players they are losing through the portal? I suspect that we would look worse than most.
And funny that you don't believe that applied to coaches when I tell you that our choices are limited when trying to hire. Most we would even consider already have multiple millions in the bank that we can confirmed, not 6 digits that we guess about.
No clue, but the way they were talking they seemed pretty sure of it whoever it was
How does he rank in available resources? Where does he rank in difficulty of schedule?
You can't just look at part the equation.
