Message: [QUOTE="Jake, post: 5360291, member: 86"] I think there is significant hangover from the JB era. Insofar as the hoops fan base has never had to raise a nickel to be competitive. JB was cheap and good….forever. Melo and other whales built the Melo center. The drumbeat from the AD has always been about needing $ for football. Now here we are and the dynamics have changed and we’ve been slow to react and somewhat disorganized. JB didn’t embrace NIL and left behind no structure whatsoever. It has to be built from scratch with a new staff and first time head coach. SU hoops might have a huge fan base, but they’ve never been universally solicited for donations. I don’t think turning on the spigot is that easy. [/QUOTE]
