Message: [QUOTE="Sbucketball, post: 5293382, member: 8555"] I'm still sour about that. I was adamant at the time we should pay Jesse, and it would have been more like 650k if I remember correctly - close to WVU but didn't need to match. And that was met with people saying he's not worth it (wrong), no one makes that money and NIL is inflated and people make a fraction of what's said (wrong), his dad is evil (wrong), you can't have disparity between what guys make in NIL (wrong). Makes it worse we gave Lampkin 800 the following year on a renegotiation. Crazy thing is that was probably a death sentence for Red. He probably would have made the tournament if you boot Justin Taylor from the lineup and insert Jesse: Judah, JJ, Bell, Maliq, Jesse. Not world beaters but good enough for him to meet the magical tournament threshold that would have bought him more time. Now 2 years in a row with no tournament and TBD how long they give him.
