Anybody else hearing this? Surely a school that just came out saying they are -30$ million in the hole can’t be offering this much cabbage

I can't believe any school would offer that for a college player for one season, even a school as dumb and corrupt as UL.

If that was true and didn’t commit immediately, I’d just quit trying. Even u6 isn’t that dumb .

Hate to say it, but a rumor like that sounds to me like misinformation from someone at UK getting out in front of the fact that he picked UL. Hope I'm wrong.
On the one hand, you could be right. On the other hand, Louisville’s donors are exactly the types to be willing to do anything to stick it to big brother. I would not at all put it past them to only pursue MM to screw us. Honestly.

At this point their donors know taking him off the board absolutely ruins our season.

I can't believe any school would offer that for a college player for one season, even a school as dumb and corrupt as UL.

If you view it as their way of screwing Kentucky rather than any other purpose like building a team, it makes perfect sense.

This was a joke FB meme put out by some Kentucky fan to troll witless Little Brother fans. It included an obvious AI image of MM already wearing a Louisville jersey. I saw it too, but it was so clearly a hoax I ignored it.
That doesn't disqualify it from becoming part of an equally ridiculous conspiracy theory. See above

Ok, you say you are hearing this ridiculous comment. Just exactly WHO or WHERE are you hearing this from. Trolls like you should be banned from this board.

Mods need to delete this ridiculous thread. Just dumb to even consider the title to be true. Now, in a few years $12M will be the price of stars if Congress/NCAA doesn’t set a cap.

There’s a significant portion of our fan base that should be forced to sit down and take a class on identifying AI and obvious fake sources.

Wouldn’t surprise me if they did. Their coach/school seem to understand what ours definitely did not understand until (hopefully) recently: you HAVE to spend the big money sometimes to keep the other money you spent from being wasted.

Stokes didn't even receive that...

I cant see anyone offering a non-lottery type player this type of money, so I dont really buy this.

.. but again, and this is what worries/irks me about this whole thing: Pope's job is on the line. And its not his money, so he's not going to care what it costs. He's going to want to spend whatever it takes to get this kid. Maybe not unlimited, but he certainly wants to shell out more than Mom is worth because Mom might literally be what keeps Pope making another $5.5 million next year.

Id be tickled if we got hom for $2mil.. $4 to $5mil is tolerable I guess. Hard to imagine anything above that will be worth it for us fans.
