Even if he takes Eagle with him?
This thread is great, I hope nothing actually happens for months but someone keeps getting "insider information" so this won't die out. opcorn:
All of the original team members of prodigy got stake in the company that was the big enticement for them all to move there to begin with. I don't know what those "stakes" are worth these days though, I see people in TN (because of will and dickerson) and in northern NC, but I don't know anyone around here that throws their stuff anymore.
As for Dickerson not being big enough to get a major contract. He has the highest winning percentage of any MPO player, he's rated 8th in the world, he is also 8th in winnings earned. I've also heard that he is planning on touring more towards full-time next year. I bet you he leaves Prodigy.
And Uli is Uli, still in the top 20 rated players in the world, has been sponsored by both Discraft and Innova in the past and had a great year, 5th highest earnings from wins, not to mention one of the voices for Jomez. Any company would love to have him
hint hint.. youre throwing it wrong
This is too much fun, especially when I have talked to all the pertinent parties involved in most of these discussions. Enjoy the musings
Where's Brad Schick to make sense of all this?
Simon already (pretty sure) signed his next deal with DM, he was talking about it at Canadian Nationals. That and buying an Audi RS5 (WANT). Simon said he'd never leave DM anyway. He thinks when disc golf blows up it'll be because of Jussi.
Back to the topic at hand. Paul personally told me he was going to Discraft. He was signing my first run Ram at a tourney in Nebraska a few weeks ago, and he paused and said, clear as day, "Hey, by the way, I'm going to Discraft." Then he sort of chuckled and handed my disc back to me. I'll never forget the moment.
Here's somthing interesting....Word on the street is that Sexton was announced as the new Captain of the Innova Star Team for 2019 on the team only Facebook page. Mabye it's a coincidence, Mabye not...
Ricky to Discraft feels perfectly reasonable if we're guessing about one big name move.

Here's a fun bit of speculation: whose signature goes on the destroyer of Paul leaves?
Because of what Jamie said below, Innova is a proud company and if it wasn't true they would take the wind out of that discraft sail real quick imo. I feel like out of all companies, and jamie kind of confirmed it, that those are the two with the most "bad blood" between them.
As for their line of discs, Innova has always stated you don't get a sig disc (not tour series) unless you win worlds. They would have to back pedal on that pretty hard to give him 6-8 discs, could be more.

Why would Paul tell that to a random stranger who is asking for an autograph?
I don't find the rumors completely asinine, but we are on the Internet after all so it's hard for me to take people at their word.
