It’s a legitimate sports agency; people acting like Lil’ Wayne is going to be at the negotiating table.

Big name sports agencies do nothing for someone like Travis. He was the cover athlete for a video game with no agent. He will get deals based off his own profile and a big agency like CAA would just take a cut for doing nothing.

Going with a younger company gives hungry guys a shot to go out and hunt for deals and work harder on his behalf.

I think you're serious and I agree.

He doesn't seem to understand shyt. You can't just smile and vibe your way through bad decisions.

The problem is for someone of his profile he needs someone who is used to working with higher profile athletes. He can make this type of decision once he's established, but in the beginning?? He needs a big agency for protection.

You gotta understand the Coli doesn’t know what the hell they are talking about

Lamar was attacked and slandered for negotiating himself and with his mom also. They ended up pocketing all that $$ that otherwise would have went to a big agency

And he still has Gatorade commercials and etc


Rookie NFL deals are essentially already slotted and there isn’t wiggle room like there used to be due to the CBA. You’d be paying someone to negotiate something that’s already been negotiated through collective bargaining. I get it when it comes to athletes who want to make a big splash outside of sports and need Klutch or CAA to throw their weight around in terms of marketing but Travis doesn’t need that
