The 6-5 senior averaged 14.8 PPG this season. Had a 42-point performance and two 30+ point games this ye@onasteelhorseiride

This is puzzling. Glover's recovery not going well?

He would be a nice pick-up, but would also be our 7th guard on the roster, if no one else is leaving. Also, what about Hausen? He would be #8. It does make one wonder if Glover or another guard is looking to transfer.

I have a novel idea. Those players, who have left a school in order to get a bigger payday at another school, should don a jersey with a dollar sign on the front instead of the school logo. What is better, the player should have the name of the donor emblazoned across his chest. Let’s just be honest about this situation.

NASCAR style!

You guys do understand that these entities that are funding the NiL money, aren’t doing it out of the goodness of their heart, right? When a car dealership sponsors a kid, that dealership is marking up their parts and service to make up the money. So ultimately it’s the consumer funding this shin dig. Not trying to turn the thread political, but it’s a lot like government spending going corporations. It all eventually comes back to the tax payers. NIL is the same thing

the car dealer is making a marketing cost choice: tv, radio, nil? i bought an aviator from long mcarthur at salina because of nil. i would never have done that based on their radio ad or others.

Omonuyi and Battle will be visiting at the same time. Both played HS basketball in New Jersey. I think they are in the same class.

As far as the staff recruiting Battle and Hausen, Coach Tang said last summer, I believe, that he told his players that it is his job to get players who can take their spot. It is the players job to not let that happen. Basically, you need to prove you can play and continue to improve because it is a competitive situation. The only way the program gets better is for the players to continuously improve and/or be replaced by players who are better. That is a hard message but with open free agency, the impetus to prove you belong immediately is there. If not, you can be replaced in the off season, just as you can choose to leave in the off season, if you want to go somewhere else, or just chase more NIL. There are no more four year players, only one year players who may choose to stay another 1-3 years.

2 things are my conclusion: 1) you likely over paid 2) You are helping funding the current condition. Your money, your choice. I'm not going to support it.

How about the player who gets pushed out as they have been forever. What jersey should they don.

Should only the players turn down more money to be loyal to their school?

What about coaches and athletic directors? Professors? Secretaries?

Should mid major coaches and players turn down opportunities at bigger schools that can provide them many more opportunities in the future?

Just asking.
