So if that was the best available at the time for him it would have been much more slim pickins later.
Based on what? He has an agent--they could have negotiated that before he entered the portal like everyone else does.
This argument is illogical and ignores how things worse--kids were transferring after spring ball and getting starting jobs--he didn't even get a starting role with Mizzou

He waited to see if Allar was coming back. Once that was decided he had to move quickly. This the predominant thought by BWI at the time too. If you don’t want to believe it that’s fine with me. You seem to have a greater understanding of everything and everyone here including the beat writers. Carry on.

He didn't wait for Allar. He believed Allar was leaving then reacted emotionally. That was the reaction by the majority here because most didn't under the rules about the window because Beau and James provided false information. Some still dont understand it. Many here like rewriting history and blaming the NCAA for things. Beau's decision was not logic based. He was angry.

We agree that it's the wild west but your position on $$$ seems hypocritical. You support players getting $$$ but you're offended by schools and the NCAA getting $$$. I don't understand that.
Hmmmmm, for decades the NCAA allowed many schools to pay for play under the table and they turned a blind eye to it. It wasn't some hard secret to figure out. They had every opportunity multiple times over to either enforce it or fix it with REAL STIPENDS and they didn't want to rock the boat as they needed those $$$'s coming into their pockets. This is all coming from a non profit that has a billion dollar a year revenue and a president that makes 3+ million a year while running a "nonprofit" system "for the kids lucky to get ships". Yet the people...mainly 2 sports with some exceptions were told they were just lucky to "get a free education" and they needed to shut up when it was already being raised they should be getting a cut of the pie.

So they failed to see what was coming or somehow were oblivious to it or they simply ignored it on purpose....take your pick. The athletes had to beat them in court as people were making money off of them. Video games, jerseys.....all of it, none was getting back to the "employees" who were the actual product we are paying to watch and still are. I understand that you cannot comprehend anything wrong there with a non profit making a billion in revenue without kicking it back or at least enforcing it, but their greed/lack of leadership has absolutely led to this wild west atmosphere. I get some people have zero interest in fairness and it's ok for people at the top to crap on people, but we'll say praise god to everyone and just ignore the fat cats lining their pockets....as it's just fine to some. That's just "the way it is" until it's not. It's fine to turn a profit, but the greed they have is pretty hard to ignore for decent humans.

If he stayed his options would have been limited.
Why? As it turns out Allar got injured early last year and Beau would have become PSU's starting QB for most of last year as well as this coming year. Of course he didn't know that at the time.
