NIL Estimate per player

[Hopkins16]

Akir Souare 250k

Donnie Freeman 2mil

Kiyan Anthony 1mil

Luke Fennell 250k

Sadiq White 1mil

Mark Morano Mahmutovič 500k

Let’s play GM. By my estimates above, that is 5 mil spent on the guys who are still on our roster plus the newest addition. If we have got around 12 million to spend as some have suggested, that is 7 mil left, with about 5 to 6 mil going for a top center and point guard. I think we will need about 15 mil total to be competitive.

I thought foreign players can't get nil

I thought foreign players can't get nil

I believe it depends on the type of visa held.

 

[PoppyHart]

If that is the best deployment of $5M, god help us.

 

[Cuse_NYC]

Take out Donnie and add the 3 Siena guys

 

[PeteCalvin]

I’d rather package the $2M for Donnie and give $3M to JPE. That would be the better play if we are able to keep Sadiq with the $1M figure.

Used to be an issue with New York State law. SU lobbied and got that changed.

Why are we giving Anthony any NIL? Doesn't he already make his own money from his clothing line but I heard his parents are super super rich and his dad gives us money. So if his dad gives money to NIL and we just give it to his son his like his dad paying his son an allowance but funneling through NIL LOL

 

[OttoinGrotto]

Look, I'm a confident person.

Some would say irrationally so.

But the way some of you are throwing dollar values out on NIL with such ABSOLUTE certainty cracks me up.

This isn't even fantasy sports or video games.

This is it's own thing.

The same reason Buddy B got a ship. They earned it. Or as much as any of these kids actually earn it.

Does he get an "allowance"?

 

[NineOneSeven]

If Akir Souare is getting $250k then I should just jump off my roof.

Less than 1ppg.

What the hell happened to this sport?

 

[Blanko97]

Kiyan doesn’t deserve 1M that’s freaking insane.

 

[Cusefan0307]

Probably not close to being correct, but hey lets go for it!

 

[orangecuse]

Such a complete crock!

The 'ol "if it's too good to be true"... still exists today, however, it exempts these already extremely fortunate privileged 'young adults.' Dudes literally have to be pinching themselves everyday. Unreal.

 

[Wrinkle]

Souare literally didn't score a point for the first 14 games or something, despite appearing in I believe every game. $250k lol

 

[RedtheGOB]

No offense but people might want to look at how markets work. It's not based on what actually happens its based on what could be.

Mara and Kyle for that matter couldn't get on the court at UCLA. Cadeau at UNC was treated the same way as George is being treated now from our fanbase as a bust. Now after they won a chip they're just laughing at their old schools.

Players get paid based on the market and backup bigs with some experience got 250K or whatever it was last year. Suare will prob be going down to the midmajors again and get paid half what he made this year.

George isn’t a bust, he was the same player he was at GT; a mid tier, inconsistent player on an awful team.

 

[SUFan44]

You would be shocked by some of the numbers being thrown out these days.

 

[RedtheGOB]

To me a bust is player with expectations and getting paid in line with those expectations and not meeting them. George was paid as a top 10 portal PG by us, and was posted about by multiple insiders.
