Re: I sure hope we are making players wait until

Didn’t we read somewhere that NIL could not be contingent on playing for a certain school?

Doesn’t make sense, but I thought that’s what we talked about.

Re: Great Osobor

College Basketball, unlike the NBA has not yet become the league where just one superstar can dominate a great, well coached team. If we lose Great, our team will become more guard oriented. It will be different. That is going to happen anyway because we won’t have a PG who controls the game like Da...

Re: WSU

I think the best move is for the MWC to threaten to leave them without a home until they realize that they have no leverage, then relent and let them in without special treatment.

Re: "College Super League"

70 permanent P4 Schools, and 10 spots for promotion/relegation.

Conceptually it is okay, but the 70 spots for teams who can be bad every year without relegation is just perpetuating the problem that exists right now.

Honestly, the starting forwards before portal additions should be Johnson and Dallin Grant. Dallin Grant was a shooter in HS.

Templin is more talented than Osobor. Before we get into another Shulga vs Anthony type of debate, Templin was a young freshman like Shulga, so Templin is early in his development of his game.

Well, we used to track progress towards graduation and require the completion of at least 12 credits per semester.

Can you even do that if they here for one year, and it is their third of four schools?
