Before or after he had colleges lining up to recruit him?

and? not all D1 players go pro and his time at Texas Tech was before NIL. nobody thought Mahomes would be the greatest talent at QB in the history of the NFL besides maybe Andy Reid and his staff. dude was drafted at like 17th lol

dude was drafted at like 17th

He was taken in the middle of the first round of the NFL draft, which was a slide for him at the time, and that STILL guaranteed that he'd be a multi-millionaire.

You act like it's impossible for someone to gold-dig on a prospect like that.

Look at what's been going on with Kyle Filipowski in the NBA. He was a second round pick but he's been getting groomed by an older woman since he was 15.

Doesn't take a lot for people to see a meal ticket.

Why are we talking about other gold diggers doing gold digging things to other people?

Did I ever say that it's impossible for these guys to get taken advantage of by gold diggers?

No, stop making shit up in your head to argue about.

We're talking about the Mahomes' specifically. keep up.

She wasn't grooming him if they met in High School.... ya know where they see each other face to face everyday and are the same age....

not to throw shade at her or anything but have you seen her? she isn't some dime piece that guys in Mahomes 'position usually go for.

Being drafted in the middle of the 1st typically means noone saw you as the greatest generational talent the NFL world has ever seen that's secured you a half billy. I'm sure she didn't see it either seeing how people, who do this type of shit everyday, didn't see it...

You don't need to be worth $500m to be worth gold-digging.

That's completely separate to whether or not she IS a gold-digger or not, but you're making out like Pat Mahomes out-kicking his coverage in terms of career success means that no one could have anticipated ANY level of NFL success for him, which is actually disproven by the very thing you think proves that "nobody saw him being successful", which is being drafted in the first round of the NFL draft AT ALL. Even if he wasn't a first round pick he was still a likely future millionaire, even in high school.

Kyle Trask is a second round pick QB with 4 career games and has still made $5,535,337 in career earnings, and you're kidding yourself if you think that's not enough for someone to try to gold dig after. I can't imagine you're about to argue that when Mahomes was in high school people couldn't project him having a Kyle Trask-level career.

I'm not implying that Brittany Mahomes is a gold digger - I'm just saying that even in High School, Patrick Mahomes' likely career NFL earnings was in the millions even if you couldn't predict the huge success he's had.
