I'm guessing this clearly is a case of another team tampering and offering him a boatload of NIL. Watch which school he ends up at and you'll know who was doing the tampering.
9 tackles in zero starts last year
12 total career tackles in 3 years
yea. probably tampering.
Clearly you haven't been listening to Rhule praising him as one of the most improved players this spring.
Just goes to prove these days believe half of what you see and basically nothing of what you hear.
the list of players praised by Rhule during spring is long and extremely insignificant
He had 3 solo tackles last year, not exactly the type of guy who would command big bucks. My guess is he is more than likely looking at splitting reps with 2-3 other guys, like last year, and will transfer down a level in an attempt to prove he's every down player.
Rhule likes Chief and the kid can play, but Chief knows the capabilities of that room better than anyone. I suspect we will see a lot of Sherman and Princewill.
I'm sorry did I miss simms getting drafted last weekend?
Pretty sure Rhule said he was an nfl qb last year... but what do I know
I've read that when Rhule met with him Borders was told he would be more of rotational guy at the Jack LB position. Who knows.......
Sherman and PWill are two guys with experience that can play that position and I suspect Chief didn’t want less than 1/3 reps. Jimari could play Jack in a pinch and they got younger guys they want to develop. Chief was on the wrong side of a numbers problem. The days of hoping there is one guy who works out at OLB are over.
It’s his last year and he wants to play more. I can’t criticize his decision.
Think back to Riley’s last year. The depth chart for the bigger OLB was Alex Davis and Sedrick King. We have 5 guys on the roster better than that.
Exactly. People have to realize Rhule and every coach in America have discussions like this with older players who like chief are on the edge of serious playing time base on the depth chart.
I believe he has 2 years of eligibility remaining. FWIW
We are loaded at his position and he had scant production last season. Hate to lose depth and potential special teams ballers but it is what it is.
Then Rhule needs to stay quiet on players in the spring. Offering praise upon a player clearly only makes them a target for NIL poachers
shut up...for Christ's sake, coaches rarely say anything negative about a player in the winter, spring or summer, then rarely in the fall.
Rhule heaps praise…and that’s his natural mode.
Then you add in the portal…and their numbers this spring…he’s got a ton of massaging to do, so he’s got to take it to the next level in the media sometimes.
Good thing is, I think he’s just the guy to do it!
Borders won’t be missed either way.

Maybe Rhule was talking him up because he wanted Chief to have a good public recommendation should he enter. As in, he put in some really good work but is behind more talented players.
Rhule will never stand in the way of anyone. He will never give false praise. Both can be true Chief had a good spring. Others behind him had better. Chief sees this wants more playing time . It’s a simple as that IMO.
I like CB but I didn't see anything from him last year or in the spring game that suggests he would play over Prince. I was more impressed with MJ in the spring game also.
I wish him well and maybe Rhules compliments of him was for "him". Maybe Rhule got wind of him possibly entering the portal and wanted to give him a little "attaboy" to make him feel good and try and keep him around. Idk just spit balling here.
I wish CB the best but I don't think he will be missed as much as people think he will.
Holla

Heck Rhule already has players phones showing text messages from other institution coaches. What more proof do you need
Proving it is simple, as was stated, there are receipts in the form of texts.
If Joe Bob's dad is a donor to the NIL collective at the University of Texas, and Joe Bob texts his son's former HS teammate at Texas A&M about joining his son at Texas and says I can get you more money at Texas, what laws or rules were broken, who do you report them to?
I don’t think he said anything about any coaches doing this , he just said the players were contacted.
