NIL’s

Don’t know about Butler but the Hall apparently spent $6M on their roster.Imagine how high our and UConn payroll has to be to have to Seton Hall and Bulter in our league and still average $5.3M
As far as Sneaker deals are concerned, all the companies care about is the athlete doing well at the school he attends so that when he gets to the League his name value has increased.
New Balance has very little presence in college basketball. It is in their best interest to have Caleb Wilson attend a school where he will get maximum exposure.
Good for Seth. Smart move!

If players from other teams are being promised NIL deals in January,, then why not simply open everything up and put it out in the open.
I would create a January open window for transfers, emulating the European soccer leagues. Make it during the winter break and have a college hoops wide bye week for games, while they work out administrative issues.
I think it would make watching teams tinker with their roster in season fun. Especially if a top team suffers an injury.
This is pro ball now. Go all in.
It is pro (or semi-pro) but that would go too far for me. I'd lose interest fast.
You may lose interest, but you may also just say screw it and get a jolt of excitement.
We have often said that we are done with college sports if “X” happens. But that “X” usually does happen and every time the needle moves more and more towards college becoming professional sports., we are still here.
I am approaching it as since players are being promised money from another school during the season, those players may not go all out, fearing an injury which could nullify the NIL deal.
I didn’t say I liked it. I am only saying all cards should be placed face up on the table.
I would be through with college basketball after being a fan for 70 years.
