$100,000!?

 

[NorthCyd]

$100,000!?

He's been busy apparently. If there are alimony payments that can add up pretty quick.

 

[CyCrazy]

He is still playing?

He’s been wanted since 2023. So it’s a good chance that it’s at least 4 years worth at least.

Iceland.

 

[Nor'MidWester]

It's wild that Iceland has a pro basketball league. The Des Moines Metro has almost double the population of Iceland.

Also Deandre Kane is apparently a dual citizen of Hungary. Kinda odd.

Anyways unfortunate he's end up in this position. You have to pay your bills...

this is unrelated to this but can't help but think what he would have made in this era of college basketball. it would suck to be in his position seeing current college athletes making life changing money just because they happened to be in college at the right time.

I can't believe he's 36. I didn't realize he was that old when he was at ISU.

He looked twice the age of Monte Morris when he was here.

Yeah, he was a fifth year senior

 

[madguy30]

Yeah, he was a fifth year senior

And an old 5th year.

I can't remember the whole story but he had some sort of delay or gap in his time at Marshall and was 24 when he started at ISU.

The citizenship thing seems to happen somewhat often for overseas players. See Nick Weiler-Babb getting German citenzship.

Man, take care of your kids.

 

[demoncore1031]

Over $100,000 he owes? How much does he have to pay per year I wonder. He can't be making all that much playing in Iceland.

 

[Sigmapolis]

A guy that good would make $10+ million in college alone at this point.

He only played one year at a P5 level. Probably would have made ~ $2M if he were a senior next year.

Kinda makes sense. If you’re playing in the league long enough to meet the residency requirements, it’s probably pretty easy to get.

 

[awd4cy]

He would have left Marshall after his freshman year.

I would imagine he transfers "up" sooner under the current system.

Showcases his talents earlier.

And either his second school pays up or he cashes in at a third or fourth.

Man, take care of your kids.

No. First, Wrap it up.
