Stokes

I wonder why Cal wouldn’t swoop in and make a play for Stokes like he has so many?

Because Kansas reportedly (rumored) has a self imposed NIL cap of 2.5 Million and is firm on not offering Stokes more. They are fine with him going somewhere else, but if he wants to be at Kansas, it's not for a penny more. That put UK's offer (which has been floated around is more than double) back on the menu, and allowed teams like Vandy to sneak in with late offers and a puncher's chance. That gets UK mentioned again and the Stokes camp back to the discussion table, but still likely doesn't mean we get him. JMI is an issue, but not THE issue with Stokes currently.

Let us not forget, Vandy has a really good coach and a TON of money. Vandy may be the one school that has enough alumni with deep pockets to actually out bid anyone in the SEC other than aTm & TX with their oil $$$. Do you think young kids with $$$ would rather live in Nashville or Lexington? I think that is a simple question to answer correctly.
