Wasn't paying the closest of attention to that team for obvious reasons, but didn't he show flashes here as well? That was a terrible team and he was forced to play as a true freshman, so it's no surprise there were struggles but I think a lot of posters were sorry to see him go.
The Monday after the Elite 8 at the very earliest.
He definitely looked like he had some potential at this level.
I brought him up after seeing him in the MVC tournament and respect your perspective.
I do not think we could remotely come up with $500K for one basketball player.
Or should? The team next year will be very good. Does it need a $500K player to reach its goals?
I'm not sure with what we have to offer opportunity wise, we have to pay $500k. With a top of the portal center we have Final Four potential.
I'll be surprised if he goes. That's a UNI family. Dad, brother, cousin all played here, younger brother is headed here.
I think we could, but I don't think we will (play on words lol). That's not our setup, and honestly, I don't want it to be our setup. If it takes money to get you here, you're not right for the culture. I'd rather take that $500k and divide among the guys that are staying.
I think TJ is looking for the $500k guy that will take $150k to be in an ideal situation/ opportunity.
I have no idea what our current guys get, but there's not a player in America that I'd want to get more than our returning guys.
Without a rim protection it's the biggest wasted opportunity in school history. So you gotta feed both sides.
