I think it’s more the cat and mouse with Murphy/Moibuko that slowed us down. But also the market. We thought 10 million would put us head and shoulders above the competition, but some of schools put up 15-20. Studs were going for 1 million the previous season. That went to 2-3.

So it was a money/NIL issue, not a negligent, unprepared from day one issue? In a perfect world, Moibuko and Murphy accept on the spot, but that’s life and the way this industry works. Rod Clark is a better recruiter than Moibuko and pushing the same tier as Murphy.

Genuinely curious how the fanbase (not the BTB sunshine pumpers) responds to this years team. Feel like it could be slow out of the gate and if not winning could be a rough start to things. Hoping for the Cignetti, pack the stadium by winning approach is the way it goes. It kinda feels like a school transitioning away from basketball and pivoting towards football. The fanfare and online enthusiasm for this team is as low as I can remember since Crean’s start. Clearly this isn’t Crean level talent but in a todays version of college basketball arms race we are behind the 8 ball. I can’t fathom a school touting itself as a top 10 NIL program building such an unheralded roster. For the millionth time this off-season I hope DeVries is a basketball savant and sees things the entire basketball landscape doesn’t.

After three years of having a Temu coach, we expect more.

He didn't take into account the brilliance of the King of Indiana in those rankings.

Thank you for acknowledging my pain AH. I'm serious. 
I have a toothache that's killing me. My driverside eye tooth is a baby tooth and has finally cashed it in and I'm too tight to get it yanked and replaced. Had Devries just had a staff on time, my tooth wouldn't hurt.

Yeah, Vegas has us 12th.  Money to be made.

I’d put money the majority of those people have access to the trilly account, it’s more than one person

This is the biggest thing I’m excited about.  And hopefully just more actions and movement on offense in general.  Better IQ on defense and intensity. If we improve on all those things we will have a shot.  Must publications have us 8-12 ranked in the Big10.  That’s just not good enough.  DeVries was paid to be better, let’s hope that happens immediately or at least enough to gain momentum, a la Dusty May. 

When one thinks of “bribery, prostitution, gambling” in sports, one thinks of …
Iowa? Hahahahaha
