This what I was wondering once the smoke cleared and everybody at Tennessee got done patting each other on the back for taking a stand. Thought they had at least a four star QB in the wings on some next batter up sh*t :patrice:
They can go back to not making the CFP its fine :ehh:

Ain’t like UCLA offense any better :dead:

shyt at least he will be back local. Can’t hurt at this point.
Shheeit, UCLA's OC is going to craft up whatever Nico wants to run. This is the rare situation where both Nico and UCLA need each other badly. If Nico and UCLA have a better season than Riley and USC :lupe:

To me he won young millionaire and now gets to live in cali


:mjlol: His brother was committed to UCLA last spring and switched to Arkansas

If they cared about UCLA or staying in Cali they would've been at UCLA from the jump. They're from the LA area

LOL @ jumping through hoops to justify making 2.4M, asking for 4M and having to settle for half of that (at most) at a school you previously rejected that plays in an empty stadium 40 miles away from campus :laff:

I honestly think better for dude overall.

Hometown LA
~$2 mil

But the big thing is experience in a Pro Style Offense. I don’t even think he’ll mind spending another season in college if he’s growing as a QB. It may surprise some people that he may completely fine staying another year in college which I think would raise his stock considerably.







I think Joe Milton would’ve been looked at as less of a joke prospect if he didn’t go to Tennessee.

You didn’t know? He willingly left a top 10 team that was paying him over $2 million/year to be an average QB to go take a pay cut to play for UCLA…..in football…..all because they have a more favorable offense (for an OC that has never called plays and nobody can tell you how their offense will look). And also, this was done as a big black power fukk you to the cac coaches at Tennessee while he shyts on all these c00ns, even though he’s a Samoan and isn’t black.
Yeaaaaaaah…it’s a lot of (actually only one) breh itt that has to hold that L.

The dad is doing them greasy as hell man. Nico just turned down a guaranteed 8 mill (from HS to junior year) and a team that hid his weaknesses (throwing) better than most. Now he gotta go and be the whole engine with virtually no talent
