If any of this was true it would be tampering and idk the ncaa rule on this but it has to be extremely heavy handed.

The Oweh rumor btw isn’t as outlandish as the others and Bruce pearl wins at all costs. The low number could give it some credibility. We may have to protect what we have because other teams are a garrison or Oweh from title contender. We are most of the roster

If you don't see it on twitter then it's likely fake. Nothing on facebook should be treated as face value.

There have been several similar stories involving different players over the past several days. Fake.

No way it’s more than $1 Mill.

For context….

Jalen Brunson, a top 5-10 nba player makes less than 25 per year

I turned down getting back with my ex miss america girlfriend (college sweetheart, the one who's pictures I gotta dodge on the sides of the busses down in Clarksville) for my high school girlfriend supermodel.

It was a tough choice, but I didn't want anything to have to do with the Grumpy's bail bonds business, which is what she built up for herself and her daughter. She got a new hubby now anyways. SO I'm happy. It all turned out well.

But my new old ex girlfriend has always been a Tennessee fan though.... maybe that's why she was one of my exes to begin with, though. I dunno, I'm just sitting here with her shaking our head at the Vols.....

But we're all happy here.

thanks much, for that tidbit of a distraction for the day...

College needs salary caps and official payrolls. NIL is out of control if even half of these rumors are true that team x made an offer for this player or that player.

This has been a common theme . One crazy post leads to a bunch of post mocking the original.

I guess the Knox post posted earlier is what led to it.

I dont believe ANY of these numbers
This! None of these Boosters/ Alums/ Businesses, are forking over this type of money, just for a certain player to play for their program, when 99.9% of the time, there’s no return on investment!

And I’m not referring to the satire in the above post!

I’m aware the Utah Jazz owner threw stupid money at AJ Dybansta, but that was more of a one off publicity stunt, than what is going to be the norm.

This is about as fake as an NIL rumor can be.

A person has to be a a bonafied simpleton to believe any school, coach, or collective would offer Knox $25 mil in NIL. That's just absurd to even talk about. Also absurd is whoever wrote it says he turned down that amount to take $15 mil - a whoppjng $10 mil LESS than UK's alleged offer - to stay at Arkansas. Even though he never played here, based on the media interviews he did give, it's clear he wants his money, and wants it now. The NBA's riches were his main goal, and there's nothing wrong with that, but no way in hell he'd turn down an extra $10 mil from one school to stay at another.

There are fake articles, but this one's on another level.
