    Latest on NIL and House vs NCAA

    This would be a disaster for SHU as it would effectively create a loophole for programs to funnel operating revenue to uncapped NIL rather than capped revenue sharing. Wouldn't change a thing for us as we don't hit the revenue sharing cap anyway, but the cap would be easily circumventable for...

    Private Equity group acquiring Learfield

    Learfield's valuation is a clear example of how much money college athletics departments are leaving on the table by refusing to handle the most basic business operation in house - selling.

    Private Equity group acquiring Learfield

    Interesting, though I still feel the school would be much better off bringing those operations in-house.

    Seton Hall Finances

    It would be a mistake for the university to perpetually move money around to subsidize men's basketball beyond the true value of the media earned by it. It would be unsustainable, at some point burdensome, and not aligned with the core mission of the University. It would be strategically...

    Championship Game

    It's a shame that a game of this magnitude had to be decided by the officials. It's a shame for any game, really, but you've gotta do better in a title game.

    Awesome, next step is to make him some money to work with.

    Big East needs to expand…….

    I love the 11 team double round robin, but I'd strike now on Saint Louis. Shertz just turned down Syracuse to sign a 6 year extension at SLU and with his track record, I expect he'll continue to be in the rumor mill as long as he's coaching an A10 school. A move to the Big East would help them...

    Saturday/Sunday NCAA game thread

    If Kansas was wearing Seton Hall jerseys they'd have fouled the whole team out by now. As is, they've been called for 2 in the second half. Must be nice being part of the favored class.

    Jersey Jump Shot: What's next for Seton Hall

    Yes, right now we would need the school administration to provide the funds to field a competitive team again next year, but ultimately it does need to be an athletics problem. $10M+ per year in university subsidies to pay the basketball team is not a sustainable model. It can hold us above...

    Seton Hall Declines Postseason

    I'm disappointed they declined as I would have personally liked to see them continue playing, but I don't have a problem with them declining. I do, however, think it would have been better to decline quietly, without the formal public statement.

    BET Game 2: St. John's Game Thread

    We didn't allow a field goal over the last 4 minutes of the game (until the meaningless bunny with 10 seconds left). The issue was they made 12 free throws in that span (and attempted more).

    FOS on Rev Share Model

    Glad I'm not the only one barking up this tree! Many schools have been making rev gen moves over the past year, including Rutgers who announced a huge one last week. Now, I don't think we have a need to copy RU's massive step of spinning all of its business operations off from the athletic...

    Alex Kline a free agent

    I think Sha showed enough this year that we shouldn't force a GM on him if he doesn't want one. There's better ways to spend that money.

    Payne fouled out in 9 mins

    That was my first thought too haha. I still remember the game he fouled out of in 2 minutes, though I don't believe he started that one.

    Jersey Jump Shot with Bryan Felt

    It was a good listen, I enjoyed the interview. It was good to hear how seriously he taking the student attendance issue and the resources he plans on throwing at it in the summer . Not sure where to make this offer, but if I may, I'd be open to lending a hand. I've got a decade+ in sports...
