This is obviously extreme. Obviously that's not to be expected, the one thing I will say, in today's day and age when the fans are essentially asked to pay for the players (at least herr with no major NIL booster) maybe a little communication to those who donate to DTA or whatever NIL fund would...

Interesting, crux of the story is schools could opt into revenue sharing of up to $20m per year. Not a lot of details but have to feel it would benefit B10, SEC schools the most due to their massive tv deals. Also would be interesting how it would effect schools differently. For example we would...

I put my first ever person on ignore, it's going to be a good week! 😆 MN sports is hot now. Maybe we are due some good gopher bball news.

Betts leaving would be whatever. I'm out on BC or KK returning. Pass on D3 guys. If it is an asst coach, the one we replace him with should 100% be someone who is bringing someone with. It might not look or be great but that's the world we live in. So if we had to hire dad/brother/friend to...

You were the one who said wait for the end of the month, well it's the end of the month and I'd say we are worse today than 2 weeks ago so....

Well....lost our PG, got a serviceable big and a bench guy. I'd say we are in panic mode

Wonder where I've seen this before....

I know this is football but the point remains. Kids are happy at a place and the big boys just call anyway. The ncaa is to weak, fragile, stupid to stop this but this should not be a thing. Suspect this happens A LOT.

I honestly can't think of 1 reason you would take a kid who is going to redshirt. You get nothing that year, and the way FA works, if that player is worth anything they are getting 100000 offers to leave, and if they are terrible then you keep wasting a spot. Literally a total lose lose.

The one he played 43 minutes has 0 points 0 assists 1 rebound and 3 fouls? As a 9th man sure, but CBJ will probably play him 38 min a game. Losing 2 starters maybe a 3rd plus 2 bench guys and very little to replace that....ohh joy what an offseason

Interesting note, although at this point I'm sure someone will sue and get that changed. Because why not🤦‍♂️

I was having this exact conversation with someone the other day. Why couldn't this happen? Let's say you are Jeff Bezos and you love the Jaguars, you tell FA guy, hey listen, I will give you a 5 year 300m endorsement deal to Amazon BUT you have to sign with the jags for 5 yr 5m to get it...

This! The ncaa/universities are coating their pockets while essentially forcing fans to pay for the players and then blaming us if it didn't work! It's one of the greatest scams in history!

I wanted to not reply because you just torpedo every topic here but I think this topic is interesting so here we are. Where I think you are correct. You could have a high end coach at a great program and you are 100% going to lose kids to money at some point. There is not a coach out there...

I agree with this. I also wonder if some schools will then forgo certain sports to load up in others. Why would UConn even bother with a football team, do that take that money and have top end other sports.

It's gross but at this point you need to be contacting every kid on every lower level team and offering them $$. Hey kid I know you like Samford/Liberty/old dominion etc but we can offer more here. It's all slimy but I guess it's the only way to play?

For everyone asking, it's illegal for the school (coach) to contact a kid yes, but there are 0 rules about an NIL collective or individual contacting the kid or his agent. It is without a doubt as slimy as it gets but again technically not illegal. And as much as this is on the kids, it's also...

Some big CBB reporter tweeted something like "can't wait for a kid to lose in rd 1 of the NCAA and transfer to another school before the sweet 16" I laughed and then thought, yah I can about imagine that now.

Well, who is ready to fire CBJ now.
