Miami players entering the portal make me wonder if the Ruiz gravy train has run it's course. Last I saw, the bulk of his wealth was a shitty penny stock that was going down the toilet and that company was the source of his NIL "advertising" money.
...but I haven't looked at it for awhile.
I think he was in some trouble too.

because that nobody has a much higher chance of becoming somebody than that empty chair. Plus, it's another player for practice, one that would presumably be better than the walk-ons.
And whose to say #13 would be the least talented of the scholarship players? Maybe said player is good enough to crack the rotation and push someone else down.
Last year we could’ve used it on anyone better than our backcourt but this year we aren’t getting anyone else better than what we have. Think about it. This year is a completely different scenario. You don’t just throw it out there. I’d rather a walk on in his senior year get it than some random dude who has zero chance.

I’m not sure how accurate it is. Rob Rienhart. Bleacher report.

This is a total off the cuff remark with no real life information whatsoever.....but Furst and Goode were AAU teammates.....
Me either. Was just a random few comments and Purdue needs space. I also know of a med school in state.😝

Furst is supposedly hanging it up to focus on med school.
That’s a rumor. The other is transferring. I bet he enters the portal.

That’s the rumor I am hearing
Go to IU and start grad school….with Illinois degree 📜
If he goes to IU and forgets how to shoot then you know the curse is real
Seeing he wants Kelly school. What’s with the Furst stuff? Seen a few people talking about him too.

When he walked at senior day it seemed odd
Big wing who can shoot….will have plenty of suitors
Guessing he has a good idea of where he wants to go of he wouldn’t enter portal
IU picked up a crystal ball already. We will see.

Luke Goode in the portal.

I mean the Fab5 played there, for Pete's sake.
It’s not about grades. It’s more policy. Michigan will only take a certain number of credits. They want grads who actually take Michigan classes.

I would really like to know what specifically some of these kids don't have to get admitted. It's not like Juwan's teams were made up of Rhodes Scholars.
Michigan only takes sophomore credits or a grad transfer. They will take you just not your credits.

NIL in the pros is actually about NIL.
Pro teams aren't paying players under the table with fan donations to come to their team and pretending it is NIL because they actual have contracts and rules.
I get that but it’s still not limiting NIL. People talk like “there must be a cap”. You can’t cap NIL. Any back to the regular scheduled program before I get in trouble.

Pro sports have salary caps for players in order to maintain competitive balance so obviously there are ways to accomplish it legally even if it is highly unlikely to happen.
Though, my actual point was more that the salary explosion is a result of bidding wars more so than it being required because the job is just so undesirable (as zline was trying to imply).
Did the NBA limit Jordan’s NIL? Even if say they do collective bargain a salary. It still won’t stop NIL. It might calm the it some.

No professional league could survive under the current transfer/NIL regime
You still didn’t defend the point.

I know. It just feels like it's out of control and needs a major correction. Paying a kid $1.2 million to play ball while he gets his degree just seems plain crazy/irrational. I'll never love it, but I'll accept a rational system
So you accepted an irrational NCAA gestapo system but not an NIL system that is market value based? That’s hypocritical.

Sorry, been gone for a few days.
Ballo is done 👍
Hickman 👍
And I'm still hearing Conwell.
If IU gets those guys it would significantly change everything. Practice… prep. Everything.

Interesting development because he’d obviously come off the bench if (hopefully) Ballo commits
Ballo is a 20-25 min guy max. Lots of playing time left.

Volume shooters should be at least 34%. He clearly is one. His free throw % is 81%. So I’m not worried about his shooting. I’ll be glad to see him shoot.

Ok, to shoot more 3s, you have to be willing to shoot more 3s. Those two guards shoot significantly more 3s per game then XJ, Cupps... there really isn't anything more to this IMO. You guys can go off about the system, I'm not going to.
We run the same stuff most teams do. Rice and Carlyle are better at just about everything than who we have had for 5 years. Totally agree with you. Those two fit together very well.

I don't believe so but it sounds like he's eligible for NIL so I'm a little confused on those regulations.
Work visa. Maybe?

Fwiw I was back in B town last week of March at a bbq vendor owned by Rob Norris and he mentioned Hemenway. He coached him at one point and said working on getting him to Bloomington. I dismissed it. If anyone wants good BBQ he sets up every Thursday at kirkwood and maple.
