This type of question comes up repeatedly. And the answer is always the same. There's no way the staff wants this info reported.

But it would surprise me if he wasn't the highest paid player on the team. I say that with no inside knowledge.
Fair answer and thanks. It seems, though, that the purported worth of the likes of Payne, Hines, Clark came out.

Hot shot 6'6" kid from ND West Haven CT headed to Arkansas has "NIL value" of $910,000. UCONN and Hurley showed very little interest.

That's true but it came out far down the line and not with exact figures (at least not by me).

The school is still looking for one more commitment and leaks are not in the best interest when negotiating with players and agents.

The word is we have a verbal. But I heard that about a week ago and now that Copeland committed I expect the announcement to come out shortly.

I assumed with no knowledge that the 14th player would be a big. But Jerry noted in his Copeland story that it might be a guard.

Still holding out for a Whitehead return 🤣

It was always going to be tricky filling out the frontcourt given the crazy prices for bigs. All things considered, Shaheen/Nelson did a good job finding some promising pieces. Copeland seems like a really solid get for our budget. Williams too.
I'm seeing shades of a Mr. Walker.

Mix tapes of course make everyone look great, however any fair reading of that tape shows a player who is tough/physical down low and can score in short range. His shot may get blocked from time to time because quickness does not appear to be one his attributes, but on balance I think he will be a definite plus for our offense. So, yes, I think he looks like a very good get.
