Judah Mintz to test NBA Draft waters

Is it possible that the delay has to do with an NIL deal being negotiated and fully agreed upon before an announcement is made?

Yup very well could be the case. And I wouldn’t put it past an agent to leverage a team to “leak that he might be their pick” to convince him to stay in the draft. Agents don’t get a pct of NIL, they do get a piece of your nba/g league deal.

I thought they could have NIL agents now?

OK, I know that everybody is all stressed out about the whole "will he stay or will he go" thing, especially as it pertains to having a top-flight point guard next year. Well, I'm here to tell you that your old buddy Uncle Dick has it covered.

I just returned from shooting outside in 90 degree heat and you'd be shocked at how many jumpers I made in a row. I know that I sure was. 3-pointers? Not exactly; I've got a shoulder thing going on this week, but unguarded from 12 feet? I was automatic, or as close as you're going to get out of the likes of me.

For those of you longing for the days of Tyler Ennis walking it up, I WILL walk it up. I'll also get some rebounds if the ball comes directly into my hands. Old Uncle Dick doesn't have the same vertical leap that he had when he was 18. But who does?

I know what you are saying: "Wow! this is awesome but do you actually have any eligibility?" Well, who is to say, know what I mean? Besides, there should be some sort of special thing about an SU alum celebrating his 50th reunion this year, right?

Finally, I am announcing right now that I WILL take NIL $$$. Whatever Jesse turned down, send it my way. I'm not proud. No need to get the IRS involved; unmarked bills in a stack of pizza boxes from The Varsity will work just fine.

So feel free to relax now and go have a beverage of your choice. I've got SU's back.

Zima here I come baby!! Dick is in charge and paint me a believer!
 
At this point, I think it's emotion (I want to be in the NBA) vs logic (I am projected at best as a mid-second rounder and could get NIL in College).
 
I’m starting to think there won’t be an announcement, because there’s no intent to come back.

Completely uninformed. But that would make sense to me, as we all wait for an announcement. Maybe we are waiting for something that just doesn’t exist or won’t.

Or maybe it’s a tight negotiation coming down to the last minute.

Or maybe I’ll duck out of this room before I get hit with a boot.

Come on home Judah.

It’s been complete radio silence for a very long time here. All social media, and other information seems to be trending toward him staying in the draft. At this point I have no idea how this will shake out, but it’s certainly not trending toward us.

So, are there any realistic options this late? Grad transfers only, I understand.

Quinnerly, is that the kid we recruited years ago?

And then there's a freshman from NJ, right?

Freshman from NJ committed to Louisville I believe.

I thought agents loved NIL because they get a larger piece of the deal(s) than other endorsement deals
 
OK, let’s make this interesting…

Who would you prefer as SU’s starting PG next season:
1. Judah Mintz
2. Jahvon Quinerly
 
Hopefully Judah will realize that one year will absolutely fly by and he will be in a better situation come this time next year before ya know it.

honestly if he doesnt want to come back...it might be the best for all parties that he doesnt

he has to own and want any decision he makes...

a digruntled star player is not a great thing to deal with, either

I don’t think he’s disgruntled but I do think there are extenuating circumstances that lead me to believe he’s staying in the draft.

Exactly. Whether he’s in the G League or here, he’s going to play like he’s in the G League.

If he wants to move on, then I’ll be happy for him, and hoping for the best. I don’t think he would come back and be disgruntled. If he felt that way then he would just stay in the draft. I will say that I don’t want him to come back and turn his year into a selfish audition. Which I don’t see happening, and Red wouldn’t have it.
