This guy is one of those losers like Tate Martell.  He's on his 3rd team and has 51 attempts vs P5 teams and has sucked (sub-100 pass rating).  

Its everyone else's fault.
Wants to be handed everything.
I doubt he ever starts for a P5 program for a full season.

According to tax returns obtained by Sportico, the Big Ten Conference generated $880 million in revenue in the fiscal year 2023, which spanned July 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023. This signifies a nearly $34 million increase from the 2022 fiscal year, in which the conference generated $845.6 million in revenue.

The $880 million surpassed the SEC’s revenue of $853 million for the top in college athletics for the Fiscal Year of 2023.

The report from Sportico also notes that each Big Ten member school earned $60 million from the conference for the school year, except Maryland and Rutgers, which both joined the conference in 2014 and, therefore, earned “slightly less” than their counterparts.

Additionally, according to the report, Jim Delany, the former Big Ten commissioner who served in that role from 1989 until 2010, was still the conference’s highest-paid employee in 2023, making $5.8 million.

This may all be true, probably is, but IF some of what he claims is true, Napier is in trouble.  Running down his athletic abilities doesn't change that.

I was being kind.  He did the same thing in HS.  He's from CA, but transferred to IMG Academy in FL.  Couldn't cut it.  Transferred back to CA.
Committed to Miami.  Switched to Florida for a few dollars more.  Didn't get paid.  Switched to ASU.

No one should pursue the kid, no matter how good he is.

His athletic abilities are not material to the point obviously.

He claims Napier offered him money, directly, which would be a no no.  

Whether he has evidence of that is yet to be seen of course.  It could be his lawyer thinks there is a quick payday here, a settlement, involving no talking.

I don't really care either way, the kid we got this year looks like Cam Newton on the field.

Mertz is the starter, but he'll play plenty, a la Tebow in 06.  He is big and fast and can throw.  It's crazy.  He'll have some subset of plays he'll run.  But he just looks so good.  Dangerous.
