I watched a San Jose State game earlier this year because I am a degenerate and their passing game impressed me.

Huge! Literally and figuratively.
So, do what do we have back on the OL? Seems like we get a couple more transfers with some returners, and the OL may not be in bad shape.
Probably depends on the social media following of the player. If you've got millions of followers the FMV is going to be different than if you've got 10k. There is a fairly well-established market for impressions/social media reach. I am under no naive impression that boundaries won't be pushed here, but I do think it's more complicated than "FMV = what one company/person is willing to pay".
Anthony Palano committing to Boston College. That’s a big bummer. Believe he followed Rogers from SDSU to WSU. Figured he was an auto Clone commit. Would’ve been a great anchor at LB over the next couple years.
Rutledge and Barret the most notable returners. Carter and King the big time commits. Fraley from NDSU, Braden Smith from Tarleton State, and Broscious from MSU all visiting. OL is shaping up to be potentially really good.
The other MLB from WSU is likely coming here, was taking snaps from Palano as a freshman. I was bummed too because I liked watching him play, but think it's a case where he knew he might not start here.
Carter and King committing early shows the staff is investing in OL. A good OL means you don't need Breece Hall to be able to run it or Jayden Higgins to be able to get open before a sack.
I’ll be curious if our Oline recruiting philosophy is shifting focuses to more southern kids moving forward as that’s been the Oline coaches recruiting grounds for a while. Also a lot of sec Oline in the portal that he would have offered at ole miss or at auburn so could get a few more out of there
Not to be that guy but if Palano was going to Michigan or Georgia then I would be bummed that we got outbid for someone we really wanted. I can't think CJR is devastated about missing on Palano if he's going to BC at the end of the day
Is any starting Big 12 QB not transferring? What's the deal with the guy from ASU? I thought they had a nice size NIL fund?
bachmeier will be back at BYU!
I would take him because Im sure there is some talent there and we need guys but I wouldn't have high expectations for him next year just because he came from Ohio State
If we are to believe the December 5 Premium Board Crashout, MC didn't believe he should be held to a rev share budget and wanted to be free to hit up ISU donors for his own purposes despite a looming budget hole threatening the entire department those donors had not stepped in to fill.
Some thought giving the football coach full extra-budgetary autonomy over player spending was worthwhile if that was the price to get him to stay, but it's easy to see that need for more player money never goes away and it ultimately cannibalizes other important programs, including men's basketball.
MC was becoming the thing he said he didn't want to be. It was time.

Are you seriously comparing a guy on a podcast about ISU athletics to professional newscasters on major media outlets?
That is a bit silly, but regardless it actually does happen.
