He didn’t have 0 interest . The system was a concern but the bigger issue was IU (mainly Coach Ya) prioritizing Carlyle from the get go.  

That alone was grounds to fire him.

Curious why Tucker DeVries hasn't been officially announced to Indiana yet, if that is the plan as we all assume it is. 

With the mass exodus, a little good news never hurts ha-ha.

Might have to wait for official word on his waiver. (Just guessing)

I wonder how IU would negotiate the amount of his NIL deal with his dad being the head coach. Not that it's an obstacle to his coming here, but might it make it a little more complicated to wrap up his deal quickly? Who negotiates and approves the NIL deals? With Tucker, it ought to involve someone other than his father.

He gets what ever NIL is left after dust settles

Has IU made any sort of contact with Mullins since I keep seeing it brought up??

I was thinking about that earlier this week..with his talent, he'd probably make bag regardless of where he'd go; so it may not be a big deal??

"Sources told Musketeer Report that Conwell is fielding offers ranging from $1.5 million to $2 million in compensation from other programs."

3rd team all-Big East is commanding a premium it seems.

The market is wild.   Truly is.  Hope we get him but the amount of money for a short season of ball is astronomical. 

[Pagoda 4,123]

Keep in mind the rev share is basically a 66% to 100% increase for player payroll this season. So a lot of the numbers quoted are going to be about double what players got last year.

He's done very well for himself, despite his NBA career never coming together. I grew up with his daughters. They lived in a very nice house in a fancy housing addition.

I’m just using him as an example.  All these great players of the past got a scholarship and these guys are getting 1.5 to 2 mil a year.

Kid could have got paid big time back in the day, instead of working for a living like the rest of us.  :)

Rabby said they’re waiting to announce a lot of things at once, that being one of them.

Caps would only hurt IU. 

True, but no caps will destroy the game in my opinion! Talent was spread out before on a number of factors, quality of the program, quality of the education, locale, facilities, and I'm sure we can all think of a few others. But at least under that system you had some level of parity. Without caps, the elite programs will just have too much of an advantage. Every year in the NCAA Tournament we see smaller schools actually compete and win against even elite programs....that is not going to be happening much longer, in fact we are already starting to see less upsets. I think the caps could still be set high enough where the more historically elite programs would still have an advantage, but smaller schools with less resources would still have a shot at landing a few top players. Just my opinion, but I just hate to see the game ruined and to me, no caps ruins the game, at least without major changes, turning into basically semi-pro basketball, which maybe is what it has already become.

He committed to west Virginia a year ago today, was hoping that was going to stay the trend
