...who made the comment that agents/representatives for players are inflating the numbers of what they say they have been offered by other schools in order to increase demand and get a better deal. They specifically mentioned talking to other schools about what a player had said they were offered versus what they really got, and often there was a big difference.
That may have changed - that was a story being told last fall. I suspect the NIL folks are getting better and confirming actual offers rather than running up bidding on players.
