    Where is Xavier getting all of that cash from? Is Rick Sr pitching a few million in?

    Willis was about 6-5 and had some strength to him. Evans is smaller but should make a lot of shots in this system- as he did the first time around.

    Would love to see us sign him. There is no shame in not cracking the loaded Michigan rotation as a frosh.

    A huge help would be for Niko to put together an under the radar roster that fits his system to a tee- then he goes out and makes the tournament. The town would support that and I think we would have a shot to compete at higher and higher levels going forward. Big year coming and it is really...

    This is why I am thrilled he was able to grab Mpoyi. No guarantee but he is certainly a high potential prospect. We are going to have to get our NIL pot up to 10 million or more to compete for a highly competitive roster in the years to come.

    It is apparent that Niko has to let the big boys start burning through some cash before we are able to get the players we need. It is a three tiered system, with a top 20, then about 30 more schools who compete at the next level and then mid majors who have to take the leavings and develop young...

    We need 4 rotation guys, 1 of them with potential to put up big numbers like Tyson did. We need a shooting 5 and an athletic wing that can defend. I would not be surprised to see Niko sign another frosh to develop.

    The loss of Vaihola may make it easier to attract a 5 who can shoot it to go with Mpoyi and Grove. With the group of Vaihola, Grove and Mpoyi, none would be an outside threat- which might be a big deal in Niko's offense. As Mpoyi progresses we will have a chance to offer different looks...

    To me, what is interesting about it is that it is a sign that players are identifying our coach as someone who can help their career along. I like it!

    Well, no, the best player on the court was Nicque Clifford, but Evans was good and I did like him better than JCJ at the time.

    That number can't be right. There are about 365 D1 teams and 5600 would be the full roster of every one of them.

    Some go for the money, some for the goal of being the star. At Duke for example, a kid who might be a star somewhere else has to worry about getting replaced or diminished by some 5 star one and done kid.

    The executive order where enforceable is enacted and where not enforceable, is meant to set a path for Congress. The current Congress has codified 50 of Trump's EOs. I hope they do the same with this.

    I don't like the idea of players just being free agents every year. I think it makes a joke out of college sports. The premise of the sport is that you are supposed to be a student at that school representing that school. Now the players are repping themselves, playing for themselves and using...
