I don't believe Casey Thompson is in the mix to come back here. He left bc he got screwed over by the coaches on not being the guaranteed starter for this year when the coaches brought Jeff Sims in to be their guy.So is Casey Thompson in the mix or is that wishful thinking? Very odd to see him come back to visit friends in the middle of December of all the possible times to swing through.
Did he sign with Syracuse?
What’s unlikely, that McCord was trying to get $2M from us?

What are you talking about? We only have lost one McCord bc Raiola is still very likely to have been committed here behind the scenes or is going to commit here. So I don't understand how we lost 2 guys unless your referencing to DK and not Raiola? And we haven't lost DK yet either.Silly season. I think.
Who would have guessed with this morning's fireworks that we'd lose two QBs but get a very talented offensive lineman to walk on.
I guess it makes as much sense as that for a former QB in his 217th year of eligibility to come back simply because he was seen playing some ball on campus.
And we haven't lost DK yet either.
I did a little research & there is not many NIL deals greater than 1.5 mm.Agreed. So the idea is a team like Nebraska with no QBs to speak of, $2M is out of line for an experienced proven guy like McCord?
If that’s really the case, I guess we can just prepare for another season of HH and CP.
You need to Google & see what athletes get that kind of money. Not McCord. AlsoAnd if that was truth that he wanted 2 million to be the qb we should have given that to him. I love the White Sox's but they hate paying to get talented added to their team and try to go the cheap out which is why they love to lose. More times then not the teams that spend win.
Could be silly, but very oddly timed visit to Lincoln in the middle of the key transfer window when the school is looking for a short-term QB.Silly season. I think.

I’m not sure I would agree that he got screwed over exactly. He was coming off another surgery for a team that was 4-8. He stuck it out through the winter and spring practices before deciding to go elsewhere when Sims looked like the clear #1 post-spring. Neither side publicly had anything but positive comments on the other so it’s not too much of a stretch to see mutual interest again. After all, Casey wasn’t raking in $1 million and seemed genuinely enjoy his experience and teammates while here. Seems like a good fit if he’s Interested.I don't believe Casey Thompson is in the mix to come back here.

Okay. You should let Rhule know. He seems to think $1-$2M is what it takes.I did a little research & there is not many NIL deals greater than 1.5 mm.
When I say got screwed over Im meaning bringing another power 5 former starter to compete for your spot. It wasn't exactly Casey's fault that he got hurt the o-line didn't do him any favors much of that season. Yes I understand the coaches concerns with him coming off a injury but if CT is their so called guy then you don't bring another guy in with experience you let him make the mistakes on the field and pull him just like what happened to Sims. I don't really see the fit with him coming back and probably wanting a starting spot and him potentially having to compete with Riaola who is the number one qb in the nation.Could be silly, but very oddly timed visit to Lincoln in the middle of the key transfer window when the school is looking for a short-term QB.

Like who? Have you looked at NIL valuations?We have only heard of one team(Syracuse) but there are probably several power 5 teams behind the scenes that are willing to pay that much to him and guarantee him to be their starter.
Ok Shedeur Sanders 4.8 million, Arch Manning 2.8, Caleb Williams 2.7 million and just because you choose not to believe that Nebraska doesn't have that type of money maybe you should understand the realism that qb's do get that type of money.You need to Google & see what athletes get that kind of money. Not McCord. Also
since you him so bad, open your pocket book or just find some realism in your posts.

You have to think that their are teams out there that would pay for him to play for their teams regardless if me or you feel that is not what he is worth. I'd pay 2 million just to get us to a bowl game.Like who? Have you looked at NIL valuations?
