Mo Toure Post on X
- Thread starter Knight Shift
- Start date
I read that more like he’s going out to the highest bidder? Am I wrong?
He’s got a daughter, can’t blame him one bit for taking a payday if that is his choice.
Lots of old farts on this board that don’t get the emoji’s maybe ?
I read it as him being gone.
The scarlet tear drop and fingers crossed (But I am an old fart too).

Hopefully our higher profile donors will be able to keep Mo on the team for his final season. Can’t blame him for looking for the payout. He is one of the few stars returning on D.
Interesting to see what NIL value he has on the market after not playing in 2 of the last 3 seasons due to injury.
I hope he stays, but his knees are....problematic. Who knows what he's got left in the tank.
Don't forget starting next year it's highly likely (assuming NCAA settlement is approved) that schools can pay players. Being part of the P2 makes it easier to find that money in the budget compared to all the other conferences.
I posted this from a Thamel article in the Joe H being hired by UMass thread.
Harasymiak comes to UMass at an intriguing time of transition, as it enters the MAC in 2025. The administration has dedicated significant funds to assuring better success as the school, which has not had a winning season since elevating football to FBS in 2012.
UMass will have nearly $2 million in NIL/revenue share for the 2025 season and $3 million for 2026, according to sources. Those numbers are guaranteed, according to sources, which means they don't have to go out and fundraise.
Would harsymiak offer Mo $1 million to go to UMass with him ?
This could be interesting as some schools may offer a few star players big money. Kinda like the Texas rangers signing A-Rod
I would say that would be a waste of money. One LB is not going to impact a team that much. A QB, an elite RB or WR, an elite DT or elite DE.
For a school like UMass I doubt it. You don't want to spend 1/2-1/3 of the budget on one player and it's not even a qb. Even if it was a qb, I wouldn't expect a UMass type school to allocate that much to one player.
I once of heard of a guy spending 90 percent of his money on good times, women and Irish Whiskey. The other 10 percent he wasted
There's no way it's for Umass. A guy like Mo it's likely a top 25 program or SEC school with $ like Auburn or something
