    UK should have at least $1.5 million left in NIL.

    I’m giving you the rule not the exception. This is one off example that is by far not the norm or not what is going on in NIL as a whole.

    UK should have at least $1.5 million left in NIL.

    To be clear this is 100% not how it works currently. Today, it’s boosters giving money to NIL collectives to get the best players out of love for the U-no rewards. There is zero money being made. If we are lucky we get kids to do some good things for the community in their contracts. There...

    Did anyone else see where DJ was ranked in the transfer portal?

    IMO there is a much greater chance of DJ coming back to KY than Reed by a large margin. I’m not trying to start any rumors, but I believe this is a real possibility. Obviously a lot of competition out there for him, but seems unlikely he goes to AR at this point and once that decision is made we...

    Hypothetically, how much NIL would a VJ Edgecombe decommit from Baylor be worth to UK?

    This would have been true last year. This year it’s probably more like $1.2 unfortunately.

    Mitch Officially Turns Deaf Ear to BBN

    IMO Mitch had no choice and had to do this for the good of Basketball and all sports. This idea that we had the money and it wasn’t an issue is not true. That money had to come from somewhere and the new coach and other sports would all pay the price. I commend Mitch for doing the right thing...

    The large $Boosters

    This is simply not true. The larger(top 10) boosters are closer to Cal than they have been in years for the most part and are (mostly) supportive of him staying (For varios reasons). There really isn’t an option as firing him would set all sports, including basketball, back given the financial...

    "They're not doing their job" video from KSR. UK basketball is failing at NIL distribution, per source.

    the claims he makes aren’t true in my experience so there must be something else here.

    Big Z

    That makes sense and after hearing Cal explain that was the strategy I recant. I do see him lost at times on defense in games. Same in practice as the other guys are constantly yelling and pushing him to get to the right spot. He’s learning for sure

    Big Z

    You did see him give up like 4 dunks in a row, right? His defense isn’t suspect, it’s horrendous. There is a place for him against certain types of teams but let’s not get crazy here.

    WTF happened to Reed?

    Seems to not play well in physical games. Maybe we get him back to mature and adjust before going pro
