Tate's statements at the end seem to debunk the idea that players are leaving because of Kerns.hapapp wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:05 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/sports/ ... f0b46.html

I was not sure which ones but I was thinking 2-3 would decide to return so if Huntley joins as well then we definitely could have a real good nucleus back. Hopefully some big time JUCO/portal players decide to come as well.NattyBumppo'sRevenge wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:51 amIf CJ Huntley changes his mind and sticks around one more season, we’d have a nice core to build around. Would love to have either Harcum or Marsh back. Wonder if Harcum did transfer if Marsh would be incentivized to return getting a starting role at PG. Tate’s comments about Luke Wilson are promising as well.hapapp wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:05 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/sports/ ... f0b46.html

Even that number seems out of reach for us, not that I have any basis of knowledge on that issue. I would be surprised if we had 200k for our basketball team, but hopefully I am incorrect and will be surprised.
If that had been true then he would have likely got the door and not an extension.JTApps1 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 8:00 amTate's statements at the end seem to debunk the idea that players are leaving because of Kerns.hapapp wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:05 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/sports/ ... f0b46.html

We definitely aren't but I say let these programs over spend. We need to play money ball and find those who are under valued.
It was not meant to read as an assertion that was the way it way, just a possible scenario.
It was reported that Hunter Dickinson received 7 figures for transferring to Kansas from Michigan for the 2023-24 season.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:07 amWe are talking about amateur athletes getting paid $25-$100k (on top of a $25k scholarship and $6k stipend annually) to play in front of maybe 5k people and on ESPN+ with less than 30k viewers.
I recommend reading that sentence out loud to realize how crazy and unsustainable this is for anyone outside of universities with donors that have more money than sense.
100%. This is why I won't waste a penny on "NIL" because it just can't sustain. As soon as these power schools start to suffer in raising money for needed facilities, coaching salaries, etc they will wake up and demand change.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:07 amWe are talking about amateur athletes getting paid $25-$100k (on top of a $25k scholarship and $6k stipend annually) to play in front of maybe 5k people and on ESPN+ with less than 30k viewers.

so, was Tate never in the portal or did he enter and withdraw? I thought everyone had entered except for Wilson at one point.hapapp wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 7:05 amhttps://www.wataugademocrat.com/sports/ ... f0b46.html

I have an idea, why don’t we stop this lunacy and save college sports from it’s sure destruction.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:07 amWe are talking about amateur athletes getting paid $25-$100k (on top of a $25k scholarship and $6k stipend annually) to play in front of maybe 5k people and on ESPN+ with less than 30k viewers.

There is nothing we can do now. This is all on the power programs. The power programs have the money to spend and will keep doing so until it starts to hurt them. If they were smart they never would have gotten into this "pay to play" game but there are rich boosters so desperate to win that they will pay for an all-star team every year just to do so.KentHogan wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 11:39 amI have an idea, why don’t we stop this lunacy and save college sports from it’s sure destruction.Saint3333 wrote: ↑Thu Apr 11, 2024 10:07 amWe are talking about amateur athletes getting paid $25-$100k (on top of a $25k scholarship and $6k stipend annually) to play in front of maybe 5k people and on ESPN+ with less than 30k viewers.
