Vandy had 6 QB's on their roster and only 1 is a senior.
Kurtis will hopefully get a chance to play against the best in the SEC.
Good luck Kurtis

I know he's in the portal, but is it official he's going to Vandy ?

Also, does anyone know his major ?

He's only had an offer from them. He's had offers from BYU and Wake Forest as well. He posts them on Twitter.

It seems likely that he can make more in NIL money than he can make in the CFL.

We're gonna see this more and more. Rumor is that Quinn Ewers is staying at Texas for this very reason. He's a mid level QB at the moment that could make more at UT than in the NFL.

He is a starter who is making over $1million a year as a medicore QB. So medicore that he's kept Manning as a back up and he's making more money. And yes, their entire QB roster is going to make more than an NFL rookie is. So what is your point?

I don't think this is true. Though, I guess it depends on where they're drafted.

As a random example, Stetson Bennett was a 4th round pick and earns an average of $1.13m and got a $700k signing bonus. That base salary aligns with what folks estimate Ewers earns in NIL, and Bennett got the signing bonus.

Obviously similar, but we're talking about a 4th round pick.
