Lol, I didn't even know this kid was on our team even though we had his brother committed to us for a long time.

Just like this guy. I had never heard this guy's name before he announced he was in the portal.

You probably haven't heard a lot of the names on the team - Blake Buntyn, Dashawn Fillmore, Kyle Garvis, etc.

He was probably never going to play here. He may never play or get significant time at USCw either

I'd rather lose players looking for more playing time than looking for more NIL money

I know that but none of those guys get a feel good article written about them. On3 counting walkons who have 1 tackle for the season as a portal addition just seems silly.

This was always going to happen. His NIL package is probably the more intriguing one to look at. They could have substantially increased what he was receiving and still saved money in the deal considering we probably were giving him next to nothing. I'm sure we signed Kevin as a bargaining chip to get his brother. Looks like we got caught holding the tab for part of his education as his family put a dagger between our shoulders at the altar - not a fan of families that do this stuff, so will be fun to watch this kid fail if he does so.
