Alford Bailey

I never understood him going to UK. Ball St I can understand.

Joey Hart just committed to Ball State.  Good for Coach Lewis. 

IMO, Rice and Carlyle were kind of shopping themselves as a pair because they wanted to play together.  I think if you have the choice to get neither and shop for two others, you take both every time.  I don't think Rice and Conwell or Carlyle and Conwell was ever an option.
Rice and Carlyle are top 10 or top 15 guys in the portal.  You take them and say THANK YOU.

Brad Stevens hasn’t coached a college game in 11 years. Maybe when he is 20 years removed from the college game this fan base will quit viewing him as savior?

It’s been heading this way for awhile now if it’s a topic that you’ve followed consistently. Essentially the schools paying is going to end up being revenue sharing through the tv contracts. Which are not going to be tax payer money but commercial is revenues from the athletic departments tv contracts. Which is the revenue that the players are helping make possible. 
 
What I don’t agree with is when I hear people say once there is revenue sharing that there won’t be a need for NIL. I think what will happen is the SEC and Big Ten will have the best base salaries bc their tv deals are bigger than the rest. But then you’ll have Joe Blow used car lot owner in Tuscaloosa providing extra incentives for a player to go to Bama. Sort of like the old under the table, against the NCAA rules, type NIL. 

Professors whine.  It’s what they do.  Got to fill the time somehow.  

Reneau.is.not.coming.off.the.bench.

CE is a guy Is love to add but probably finds a better fit elsewhere.

Not sure I’ve seen UK fans this beat down since Eddie Sutton. Holding on to hope that Sheppard stayed ended today and Jerry Jones offered to double any UK NIL offer LOL!

Mike Woodson:

Mutual interest between us and Malone, might visit some other schools though. CE is currently visiting Nebraska.

Did not realize CE ranks #10 on the Indiana HS career scoring list.

They only got him because they paid him so much. 

That trip back to Rupp is gonna be electric!

This madness is unsustainable 

Man, some of you really ought to be charging NGW rent given the degree to which he's living in your heads...

Apparently, Trilly says Jerry Jones will double what any Kentucky commit has been offered to get them to flip to Arkansas. 
NIL -- sure is a hoot, ain't it. 

Portal is a bad thing for the NCAA.
But damn it makes for an interesting off season.

A portion of this fan base spent the last decade complaining because we wouldn’t “play$$$” the game. Now we have fans upset that we are winning the NIL game. “Just throwing money around”!  Yea that is how it works now and I’m glad we are throwing some muscle around.

No one will convince me that the transfer portal is a good thing.
