Houston is the early #1 ranked team for next year. We would have to really out bid Houston on Nil.. .

Majority of which doesn’t care about University of Houston basketball.

Houston would just need one of its many multi-millionaire business owners to out spend UK. There is just far great NIL potential in a city/state like Houston, TX. Now, they still have to find it.. but I'm sure they could.

FedEx in Memphis basically just did this very thing.

Kentucky can outspend Houston. Zero doubt about that. Question is how that balances against other players

I don’t think Kentucky has NIL issues anymore. This guy and Osobar are like Star QB and edge rusher. You can afford to pay for these guys. It’s usually the depth guys that become the problem.

So, you don't believe the reports that UK has the MOST NIL money in all of college basketball now????

The University of Houston is in NO WAY even close to what UK can offer. It will come down to what the kid believes is the best situation for him. If it's just money, UK will win.

That doesn’t mean a whole lot to Davis if he was considering Michigan.

Also, Cryer is likely back which I think would give him some pause as they will have a solid backcourt.

It's all about money.

These guys dont care about pre season rankings IMO.
That is the Case if if if the Nil is substantially better. But if it's close I think it does factor in.

If you're a vet transfer with 1 yesr left are you taking 500k Nil to play for a totally newly assembled team under a new coach or taking 400k to play for a top ranked team(not saying thats the numbers just a hypothetical), one of best thought of coaches, and a serious title shot. Not saying we won't get him but it will take a big money bag that dwarfs Houstons offer IMO..

I don’t see Davis buying into Kelvin Sampson’s philosophy. Then again, I only watched FAU play 2-3 games this year.
