The natives are a little restless about Tommy’s recruiting. Even ASU are in on 5* prospects with their NIL program that Arizona and UCLA can’t afford. @TJ @Russ Smith
I have to confess while I'm looking forward to watching UCLA this year, I'm kind of in the like the hotdog don't want to know how it's made place right now.
I keep hearing UCLA bowing out on recruits who are demanding too high of an NIL, my take is they're all in on transfer. They know what they're getting, that's not the case with HS recruits, so they're not willing to pay as much for HS recruits.
Sounds like Arizona is in the same boat.
But I'm not naive I don't think they can put the genie back in the bottle.
Only player we lead for as of now is Koa Peat. The issue with recruiting these days is that you can be the leader for a kid and then 5 min later not be the leader if someone ups the ante for their services.

That and with the transfer rule now if you're going to throw big NIL money at someone it's safer to do it with a transfer than a HS kid. The absolute elite freshmen yeah still worth it but for the bulk of them it's tough to justify big NIL on a HS kid over a transfer.
Agree in a vacuum but it’s harder to hold funds for a guy you don’t know will be available while you’ve been in on HS kids for years. Scheer said Koa Peat’s people contacted KU even though they weren’t recruiting him. I don’t blame kids or their families for creating a bidding war but it’s sucks for the teams that had relationships with. He still said Arizona leads for Peat FWIW.
