It’s time for another thrilling episode of Monday Night Therapy! This week, we’re diving into the ever-evolving landscape of Nebraska football and college athletics as we dissect head coach Matt Rhule’s jaw-dropping quote from last summer: “A good quarterback costs 1-2 million dollars in the portal in NIL.”

Fast forward to today, and the stakes have skyrocketed! We will discuss the incredible ascent of quarterbacks like Darian Mensah, with an $8 million NIL deal, claiming the title of the highest-paid college football player in history. We’ll also touch on Carson Beck, who transferred to Miami with a reported $4 million NIL package.
