Nait George in the portal

"Obviously some players are told there might be better opportunities elsewhere and others are told our sense of their value in terms of NIL. I won't discuss specific players because it's not fair to them, but we kept the player whose NIL request matched our valuation. Others received NIL offers more than we thought we wanted to match and we wish them well."
The new “college” system seems to be largely based on the expectation that rich donors will year after year pay increasing sums for mediocre and/or inconsistent players. That’s not objectively sustainable.
 
I give Donnie respect for renegotiating his NIL this past year accepting a lower offer for NIL $ believing that this past year’s team would be a winner as was reported on the board. He cared about winning and I admire what he did. It had to hurt to have suffered his injury right before the Las Vegas tournament and missing 9 games before returning at year end. Other players may have shut down hoping to save eligibility. Sad that the season didn’t work out for him and the team.
 
Can we give someone 1.5 but if we make ncaa then another 1.5 and if make final four another mill then win and another 500? Like incentives and break it up so we don’t even make tourney then he only gets the first bit?


Sorry I’m tired and maybe drunk
 
Is that pretty accurate we are at 12 million?
I have heard it is around that. The main point is that while we now have a sufficient amount, it's not like we can buy at the top end of the market for all of our needs. Our rivals also have money, and they might have better stories to tell. I can't wait to see how this all plays out.
 
Does anyone here think George is a great passer? I’ve seen some amazing passers at SU and George never struck me as anything great.
I guess that depends on who he’s passing to.
 
I won’t get wound up if we lose everyone. Miami and Virginia turned
over their entire rosters. It’s what needs to happen.

We just need to be smart with our money and use it wisely. But you don’t sound very confident we are gonna do good in the portal lol
 
Just keep Kiyan and build new from scratch otherwise. The money is being spent to put together and impressive staff- more than enough talent and experience to cast a wide net and put together a good roster
 
Ya don’t sayyyyy

If they pay big for him to be their starting PG BBN might force Pope out before the season starts lol. Palpable panic over that being the case in these comment sections..

He’s gonna be a backup

You mean to tell us that this is NOT like going to Portal Grocery Store to get whatever we want?

Even at $12M, I don't think we will be able to afford more than 1 or 2 top end additions with the exponentially larger NIL offers that we are likely to see.

It will be very interesting to see how this staff determines relative value and allocates funds in this market.

What does this mean that we won’t be very good then? I’m sorry I’m just nervous again we are screwed
