This is AI but usually accurate..

Five-star recruit Tyran Stokes signed a revenue-share and NIL package with the Kansas Jayhawks exceeding $7 million. This massive agreement made him the highest-paid player in the history of college basketball's Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL) era. [1, 2, 3]
Key Details of the Deal:
  • Total Value: Reports and insiders estimate the overall package is between $7 million and $8 million

Last year, AJ Dybantsa cost BYU 7$ million.

Switch to this year :

Thomas Haugh* of Florida *might have been* a top 15 draft pick ( most said 20ish would be as low as he would go in the NBA draft, but more were saying 13.... ) but instead, decides to come back this year to play for Florida - for 8$ million, with extra NIL incentives that puts it north of 10$ million ! He is now the highest paid college basketball player EVER.

* - (nevermind Cooper Flagg made 28$ million in all those long term deals he got - we're ignoring that)

6$ - 8$ million for St.John's to get Yessoufou.

Stokes ? 7$+ million last I heard ?

If Chill gets 7$ million plus from us we're paying top shelf, for a top shelf player

It's that simple. He's worth every penny. A Godsend for Pope. We're gonna love him and welcome him with open arms. We're staying humble on it. Nothing wrong with a little cautious optimism though. Let everyone else doubt.

We're on a mission from God ;)

Let's bring him to Lexington and stay focused - this is a huge season, and a truly historic make or break year for Coach Mark Pope. It has been a brutally tough and frustratingly crazy up and down 2 years for a man that loves Kentucky basketball.

Let's hope he makes the moves starting now that turns everything around.
