There is little doubt in my mind that one of the effects of NIL is that more players will stay in school.

That's outstanding news both for the players' education and for program continuity.

Agree. Again, I am one of those who prefers college over the NBA. I've just always thought that if you can still get your degree and you are a 2nd round pick, just come back and get it! Now there is a nice incentive. In the NFL most of the time guys taken on day 3 of the draft are seniors/graduate students.

What’s everyone’s thoughts on Jay Wright retiring. I’m shocked and could lead to another influx of portal and decommitment  shuffling

Associate Athletic Director at IU is the perfect role for a retired head coach!

Surprising but I don't blame him.  If I had his money I would too. And it's not like he has anything left to prove.

I'm shocked. I bet it's something that hit him after the season. I coach middle school basketball and that can be exhausting. Imagine coaching a big time college program. He's made 4 final fours and won 2 natty's. Probably a borderline top ten coach of all time. Realistically he probably had another run or two to win a title. But as some say, what else does he have to prove?

I remember when Jay Wright was the guy that couldn’t get it done. But your right top of his game

My friend told me that he told everyone that he would stay for  next year and didn’t.  They feel he lead them on. Whatever.

I see, my UK friends talked about it recently, but I didn’t really know what was going at the time. I guess there is a shady academic thing being involved too regarding his eligibility

I'll bet diehard Iowa fans will be as happy as pigs in **** to see Connor McCaffery's 17 minute, 2 and a half point per game, 35% career shooting worthless @$$ back for a sixth year.

I'm laughing harder that Connor is freaking verified. Thank goodness the fake Connor McCaffery didn't tease his return.

Career highlights are missed 3s and dunks in PRACTICE, and he will go on and get drafted in the lottery. Life is good!

Giddy at the thought of IU making Edey guard a pick ‘n’ roll every time down, or Painter taking him off the court to avoid that

Rothstein reporting Zach Edey will return to Manure U next season.

Pick and roll him until he pukes. Or up and down them until he pukes. Either way, make him PUke.

I'm pretty sure he got a Porsche through NIL while being at UK too.  I'd say that's a 0% rate of return on that investment.
