Quitting isn’t necessarily the same as quitting on people (a point I made

I’ll stand by calling him “retired” was a very weird look.

Of course, we've only gotten his side of the story. Can you be sure it's accurate?

I should clarify that if the NIL promises were kept and he is still leaving

If kid was promised x to play, and doesn't get x, he is entitled to quit. You don't have to perform if someone doesn't

Another school is outbidding UNLV according to local sources

We can probably guess one of the schools (prob bigger than UNLV) whom he declined on in favor of UNLV.

I know it wasn’t NIL. But to say he “retired” was comical. They could have
