Fwiw, which I doubt is much.

Love the "experts" that weigh in on this kind of stuff with absolutely zero reliable sources.

I’m not even sure the experts that weigh in on this stuff have an idea of the totality of it. It’d be cool if the NCAA made a reporting requirement so we could monitor it and compare.

Really bad phrasing using "estimated to have spent" when it is really his estimate of what the transfers cost/value is. He undermines himself in the explanation paragraphs below saying Iowa isn't really estimated to have spent that much so they got good value according to him.

Boogie Fland is visiting Florida this week. That fit is entirely too good.

Miami PG Divine Ugochukwu to Michigan St. Former ‘23 top 100 recruit who played a fair bit for Miami last year. Interesting choice by Izzo. MSU’s biggest issues last year were they couldn’t shoot and didn’t take great care of the ball and Ugochukwu’s a penetrator and straight up non-shooter who’s sort of wild. But he’s young and a hell of an athlete.

TTU’s Darrion Williams withdraws from the draft. Some school is about to write a huge check.

Kansas or NC State

We would be interesting with him and Claude. We could go 6'5-6'7 all the way around.

And the huge check is courtesy of NC St.

It took 2 weeks for Wade to hire a staff that included a GM from OKCs office and an assistant GM. He brought staff with him from day one. That's how you have to do it. He wasn't working off a coffee table in the players lounge with two guys that weren't bench coaches in their previous stops for over a month. DD might turn out to be a better coach but he's not been so far.

I’ll wait to pass judgement on CDD’s approach. I have to say that I’ve been pretty consistent in thinking the GM role is a valuable one. You really see it taking off in football where there are 5-10x the number of players.  
 

With that said, that may be why he hired non bench staff first. They might be filling the same purpose without the title.

You weren't in Assembly/Cook Hall during CDD's first six weeks on the job, so you have no idea how CDD was operating or really what was happening at all.  Despite this, you made up this story and then declared your made up story a red flag.  If you want to panic, fine, but this doesn't make any sense.

He pulls the same act in his posts at ITH.
