But I thought Beth was the answer to all of EIUs problems and was going to solve world hunger

Iowas MBB NIL.
Do you think they will have NIL dollars for men’s basketball once Fran is gone? From a distance, it looks like their collective is selectively ending his career.

Once a new coach is hired, is their instantly some cash to throw around and boost the new hire?

Not exactly sure.

When WBB doesn’t make the FF next year, money will stop going there.

I love how much better we are in the NIL space then Iowa. Shows how important it is to still have good management of resources.

I think they'll be pretty similar to this past year so scheduling definitely matters. The problem for them is, the league as a whole projects much better. There were a lot of free wins in the Big 10 last year and teams like Maryland, Michigan, Ohio State, and Indiana will not be abysmal again. UCLA is loaded. Tbd on other new Pac-12 arrivals.

Obviously some roster movement yet to happen for a lot of teams including Iowa.

The new Big 10 schools are all doing really well in the portal besides Washington (yet).

Swarm CEO Brad Heinrich's was on the Chadsters Wednesday night KNXO radio show and referenced women's hoops as a revenue generating sport. I'm sorry but if your collective figure head doesn't know which sports operate in the red that seems like a bit of a problem.

Heather and Sean played some of Heinrich's SWARM clips from the Chadsters show yesterday and man he just comes across as such a whiny pompous a$$. Basically Iowa is doing it the right way and their resources are limited. He was also crying about how expensive QB's and portal basketball players have become. LOL Iowa's collective is failing and it's hilarious. Yet they threw a bunch of cash at a non revenue sport which is even funnier.
