WBB: 2026 Transfer Portal

Like who? In terms of the big sports at ISU, WBB is last in rev share $$. Football, MBB, wrestling all have higher share.
Yes - I’m talking the other sports apart from those big 3. I’m guessing basketball has an absurd amount more than volleyball, yet is giving similar results. Can JP justify giving the amount of NIL he does to WBB compared to other programs if their results are no better.

I see your point but you aren’t gonna find many programs in the country that give these smaller sports a higher cut/% of rev share than the top 3-4 sports, unless that program is proven elite, like a Nebraska volleyball.

Absolutely agree. Bill had a chance 3 years ago after our last exodus to prove this is an elite program. He brought in great talent. It failed.

Failed is a subjective term. Underachievement maybe. But there are many P4 programs, that would love consistent winning seasons and tournament appearances, but can’t achieve it. And many of those have more $$$.

I also wouldn't be shocked if there are other athletic programs at Iowa State questioning why WBB gets all the $$$ and talent yet no results. If they aren't going to get the results, it's a bad look if JP is giving them an exorbitant amount more than the other programs.
And this is the true problem with NIL. The only outcome of its current state is that it pits different sports inside the same university walls against each other. All the money comes from the same pool at the end of the day.
 
Maybe Bill would be willing to do alittle give & take with JP to try to help both parties. Say, he steps down on his own (rather than the ugliness of a firing) which saves face a bit to his legacy here and they work out a financial settlement between him & ISU so that it doesn't cost us as much up front, allowing an easier transition for us in the NIL world (even if it means BF agreeing to stretch out the payments he's owed) and in return for all this, he gets his statue or at least some banner, down the road. :D

I actually feel sorry for Audi. All of her money comes from endorsements not NIL so the only place she could go is really Iowa and I really don't think they would want her. She could literally give up her NIL and still be one of the highest paid women in college from her Hy-Vee endorsements and such. If she transfers, she won't have those wherever she goes. And wherever she goes, has to completely build the offense around her and only have one year with her. I think she's handled everything very gracefully up until this point and sadly she is the one I feel sorry for. That said I look forward to a team where everybody plays offense and defense and can get down the court. But she's been an amazing role model to so many young women.
Endorsements are NIL.
 
Walters next year

“Comito dribbles it up. Passes it to Comito who looks left, drives right and kicks it to Comito in the corner. Pump fake, Comito puts up a layup! It misses! A lot of contact but no call! But Comito gets the board! Kicks it out to Comito! THREE! That makes it Baylor 64, Iowa State 3 heading into the half”
This shows how much you know of WBB. Walters doesn’t call games unless needed for fill in. MBB homer
 
Why would Addy or Jada want to stay when the ENTIRETY of the program is based around Audi. Those girls have skill and have worked hard they should have plays designed for them, they should be allowed options besides pass to Audi. Jada did eventually start making her own plays, but she was on her own. Not only would it suck for them...... it didn't work...... at all.
