I just read an interesting X thread about HC Kiffin and Ole Miss.
Apparently, LK feels like Ole Miss is at the cusp of breaking out from under Bama even if it’s a short window. They have done an incredible job securing the top two DEs in the portal and are likely getting the #1 DL as well. With their offensive skill players and QB, and a very solid OL, Kiff & Co are going all in, with a favorable schedule in ‘24, they’re spending NIL like crazy and securing big time talent.
Will it pay off? Minus a handful of teams right now such as OSU, UGA, Bama who will go for it all every year, it seems the new era of CFB will allow teams that are good to say “we got the right QB and WR’s, let’s spend for that star RB”, or “let’s go get that DE we need to make that line top notch”.
ND has definitely improved the lineup themselves with a few portal transfers, be interesting how team that are in the 8-12 ranking will attack the portal and NIL.
