Wonder how much DIckenson at KU is making. IMO there really isn't any CBB player worth over a Million. Maybe Edey last year. If they are that good, they should be playing the league, not college.
I think It was "rumored" (who actually knows at this point) to be 2 years $4 MIL but I think the bigger factor is they got him a personal NIL deal with ADIDAS.

I think most of the NIL deals we spread on the internet are probably 25-50 percent higher than what the player actually get's.
Yeah that probably seems reasonable. thats why I was saying it very unconfidently. He did say originally Kansas was not the team that offered him the most.

AJ Dybantsa is going to get $4m+ (and might end up at BYU).

With the right coach and chemistry, I think you could buy a championship for $6-8m, which is peanuts compared to an nba payroll of $200m, nevermind the several billion it takes to buy a team.

Seemed to be feast or famine at Illinois but could be bothersome on both ends, issue being I kept expecting him to dominate all the time.

His best sequence this year was the end of the LSU game. He runs over a LSU player while LSU was trying to dribble out the clock (LSU was up by 13 or so with under 30 seconds left). The officials actually called a moving screen on LSU. Hawkins then gets a slam dunk on the ensuing possession, bringing his point total to the night up to 8

Best part about the whole thing was watching KSU coaches go ballistic when Hawkins ran over the LSU player, screaming for a LSU foul.

Can't wait for Tang to come back to Ames

Hawkins did every college bball player a huge favor. If he got $1.9m, then actual good players should be able to get $3m+ next year.

Those poor IU football players will never sniff the NFL and they just got their coach $72million.

Marquis only got Tang a $30m extension.
And yet, k-state not getting good ROI on the "bargain" they paid Tang

I've watched a lot of Illinois basketball, and that might be his best game.

He had a good game against the Cyclones, sure, but he WRECKED some Big Ten teams...

(Watch Iowa trying to defend that must have been simultaneously funny and sad.)

Maybe he's fat and lazy now and Tang isn't exactly running the best "culture."
