IF and I mean IF PJ enters they will push hard but Memphis has the FEDEX money so they probably and shouldn’t let him test the portal. Also KY will take the bird in the hand with the others and not assume someone else will enter they want
Right, a bush in the hand is better than 2 birds.

Yes--that $20-22M is going to go out to every school as a settlement. It's why there have been some articles not pleased with fact Power Conferences have to spread out their $ and other conferences/programs like Big East will be able to allocate to CBB.

Here's the main thing-we're closer to the NCAA not having any power or existing and the Power Conferences run their own thing and exclude the little guy-it's going to suck in CBB for many traditional fans but CFB/CBB are going to break away from NCAA and operate differently very soon.
I think the top conferences should get together and create leagues for each sport regardless of conference A. B. C. Each team in the league represents the conference. Like the top 30 college bb programs in a league. The top 30 fb programs. Then B league with the next 30. Instead of a tournament go to a playoff system for bb. Fb would take care of itself similar to the nfl playoffs. The ncaa needs to be cut out some how and this is the best way. With nil you’re gonna see who’s dedicated to winning in each respective sport. Just cut the cord and pay these guys. Hell have the top league work with the nba in someway for guys who are firing that want an education. There are so many ways to partner with the nba system and still maintain a college based sport. It’s clear though now. No one cares about the academic piece anymore. I mean no way all these guys are all the sudden having no grade eligibility issues. The ncaa is a scam now. The nba can draft kids out of high school and send them to college for 2-3 years whatever they decide. I feel like we are headed somewhere like this

Things like this Hagerty rumor is why I don't get too uptight when we "miss" on someone. There may be information that the staff has but we don't know of concerning upcoming portal transfers. That information may be why we don't go full bore after some guys that it would seem we should.
