I can see it now, the Otis vs Russell quarterback controversy will last into the season. Kiffin will have everyone in the dark just like last year. I can see the headlines now.

Yeah, pretty much. How much do they get paid to be on the team during summer workouts anyway?

More than the average person makes in a year I suspect, although I confess I have no idea how that works. |

Well, I'm not sure how much they get as a bonus for actually showing up, but if you take the veteran league minimum for a four-year vet which was $510,000 in 2007 and average that across the 12 months - and they don't work all 12 months, mind you - that's $42,500 per month to show up at the gym essentially.
I'd show up at the gym for $42,500 per month.

Well, I just read on SI.com that Otis is close to 300 lbs maybe even 320.
