Convo with Barney

[T_Levine]

Would love to know what was said to Barney by CCC when he came out. Unlike boo Collins shielded his mouth.

Just curious.

So, Brooks' first year was '21-'22. Is that the Covid year? Does he have two potential years of eligibility left?

Wondering bc I heard Doyle on the radio a couple minutes ago talking about Edey, and questioning his decision to play in the NBA next year since he has a Covid year left. If Dickinson got (as Doyle claimed) $2 million NIL money from KU, what could a guy like Edey, two year POY get on the open market?

Either way, hoping to hit 6 ## tonite or tomorrow so that I can properly fund True NU's NIL efforts...

I think Berry and Nicholson were the last class

Edey can only get paid during games played in Canada given he is not a US citizen.

That’s why Purdue scheduled a game in Toronto this season. He can’t get paid while in the US from what I understand.

He won’t get paid nearly enough to return, unlike Caitlin Clark (who would probably make more money at Iowa next year than in the WNBA).

Edey started in 20-21. Wasn't the Covid year 19-20?

Edit: Man, I have found sources online saying 19-20 and 20-21. Love the internet.

This is correct. The Covid year was 2020-2021. How quickly we forget! Berry, Barney and MN will all be in their final years starting in the fall.

Dang, too bad, but thanks...

2020 for football, 20-21 for basketball.

Whatever the long version of “this is your team now” would be my guess.

That’s my hope. He also wasn’t in the final press conference.

Final presser was for our dear departing seniors. Brooks was already setting up a doodle page to coordinate when all the underclassmen want to meet him in the weight room.
