With the stuff being thrown.......

around these days I am not sure it matters whether it comes from the guy that saw Rodney's neighbor at 31 flavors, Sports Illustrated or elsewhere. Information these days almost always comes with an agenda, most often times, far removed from the goal of accuracy. The report linked doesn't have anything in my reading that screams credibility. Note, this is not directed at you but, for all of us, including me, not to lose sight of source, motivation, etc. when considering how to truly interpret a report.

GCHokie34 • 04/24/25 06:09 PM ET
Understand what you’re saying but don’t discount old school cheating
marcbvtgm • 04/26/25 12:56 PM ET
Ok...but why?
GCHokie34 • 04/26/25 01:39 PM ET
Taxes?**
marcbvtgm • 04/28/25 10:44 AM ET
Do it through a donation to the school and it's a tax write off
GCHokie34 • 04/28/25 01:02 PM ET
Ain't it the truth (esp last sentence)**
YBYSAIAHokie • 04/24/25 07:45 PM ET
Thank you GCHokie for the detailed response
HokieKoch • 04/24/25 07:20 PM ET
May not be true... or perhaps it's over multiple years and other incentives
mwke • 04/23/25 04:42 PM ET
They're quoting Matt Norlander as the whole basis for this...
GCHokie34 • 04/23/25 09:22 PM ET

2hhoop3 • 04/23/25 07:36 PM ET
I would imagine he’s well over 1 million, that’s the range for a starting
jfrance41 • 04/23/25 03:43 PM ET
He is absolutely well over 1 MM for next season

jfrance41 • 04/23/25 08:22 PM ET
There was never a time when Rodney Rice was going to be offered 1.5 mil
GCHokie34 • 04/23/25 09:26 PM ET
I’m not talking about Rodney, I’m saying in general starters have gone
