Interesting comments from Jerome Tang. I am sure this NIL era is tough on coaches because historically they had all the power in the coach/player relationship. That power dynamic has flipped because players are making money and have the ability to change schools every year.

It might be tougher on a coach like Jerome Tang who portrayed himself as a "players coach" in his first couple years at K-State vs. a guy like Tom Izzo.

The locker room dynamic with guys getting millions and others getting little to nothing will be interesting. Coaches that bring in these highly paid mercenaries while giving little to the guys already on the team will lose control of the locker room quickly.

Crown Semi-final getting ready to tip off on FOX between Fred's Fuskers and Boisie State. Nebbie sports really on the rise after the FB team won the Pinstripe bowl this year!

NU guard Brice Williams needs 31 points to break the school scoring record.

Watched those two games a bit today, but hard to get too excited for them with the final 4 tonight.

Nebby vs UCF (B1G vs Big 12) in CBC championship. Or as announcers just said, "The Frost Championship" since Scott Frost was FB coach at each school.

This is just really sad. Poor Fox sports.
