VTBird541 10/17/22 06:57 PM ET
Wouldn’t be surprised.
RJHokie 10/17/22 07:00 PM ET
I was joking
VTBird541 10/17/22 07:01 PM ET
Seriously your “joke” could be accurate.
RJHokie 10/17/22 07:24 PM ET
The ROI is too good in Bball to NOT buy players
The_Phew 10/18/22 06:42 PM ET
Even at 5x that amount, it's still a good return on investment

RJHokie 10/18/22 07:05 PM ET
Oh yeah
VTBird541 10/17/22 07:55 PM ET
As usual throw money out there
VTBird541 10/17/22 06:50 PM ET
I would say the same thing if VT wasn't involved.
YBYSAIAHokie 10/17/22 08:20 PM ET

Schools basically suing themselves.
RJHokie 10/17/22 06:49 PM ET
Yes, i was alluding to that😬
tallahasseehokie 10/17/22 10:36 PM ET
The stupid thing about it is that’s it’s not even illegal. **
st_andrew 10/17/22 04:38 PM ET
I believe Alabama has been paying their players illegally for decades

It's an opinion. **
YBYSAIAHokie 10/17/22 01:29 PM ET

So you demand evidence to contradict something you swallowed without any
IronBlood 10/17/22 12:50 PM ET
It's an opinion. And I doubt I'm the only one who has it. **
YBYSAIAHokie 10/17/22 01:32 PM ET
Sorry, an opinion without facts is just a fairy tale....

Do you believe shady/illegal recruiting goes on? **
YBYSAIAHokie 10/17/22 01:47 PM ET
Do they go on everywhere in your opinion
VTBird541 10/17/22 07:00 PM ET
This has nothing to do with VT and everything to do with Alabama and
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 11:43 AM ET
Sure pal
VTBird541 10/18/22 04:52 PM ET
Okay, you just believe whatever helps you sleep at night, birdie. **
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 06:54 PM ET

HeisenBurg13 10/17/22 12:46 PM ET
It happens pretty frequently and has for years...
Brewing_Hokie 10/17/22 01:55 PM ET
The frequency of it happening is the most overblown aspect of all sports**
GCHokie34 10/17/22 05:56 PM ET
So it DOES happen and the argument is HOW OFTEN does it happen.
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 09:05 AM ET
They could use logic...**
GCHokie34 10/18/22 09:25 AM ET
Care to expand?**
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 11:33 AM ET
I've done so many times...
GCHokie34 10/18/22 11:47 AM ET
That makes a lot of sense.**
Atlee Hokie 10/18/22 12:17 PM ET
Good points.**
RJHokie 10/18/22 11:53 AM ET
You only cheat for players outside of your recruiting "zone" - Thank you
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 11:49 AM ET
See below**
Hokie622 10/18/22 11:43 AM ET
This is about Alabama and SEC, not VT**
YBYSAIAHokie 10/18/22 11:48 AM ET
Agreed**
TboneParkerVT 10/17/22 05:03 PM ET
Cam Newton is an example of this.
RJHokie 10/17/22 12:54 PM ET
Cam Newton, Zion Williamson and...Mouhamoud Dioubate...
GCHokie34 10/17/22 01:16 PM ET
Only one of them will receive NIL ? **
uber hokie 10/17/22 04:54 PM ET
That’s true.
RJHokie 10/17/22 01:20 PM ET
He could have also liked the up and down style of Oats
GCHokie34 10/17/22 01:41 PM ET
An explanation you shouldn't need to provide but have many times, in detail**

I respectfully disagree with your opinion as well.
YBYSAIAHokie 10/17/22 08:13 PM ET
Yes, of course, Cam got paid. Reggie got paid. Other elite #1 prospects
