An agent of OBD may have made an offer to a player's agent but the agent will not be directly associated with OBD. Division Street did not fall off of the last pumpkin wagon passing through Glendale. 

 

Of course, the G5 more than ever before is a training ground for players not offered by the P4 out of high school.

That is a clumsily written paragraph.  The coach speaking was referring to NIL offer for a D-player.  Then, changed subject to make a comment about one of his O-players.   The writer should have made a paragraph break.
