Possible Portal Point Guards

Valid questioning.. But talent doesn't always get the job done. My only issue with Carlos is his size. We've had small guard success here but those guys were special talent. I like Carlos game. He's a true Point guard. I really think he fits this team i'm just a little worried about him defensively. He's got that NYC dawg in him though. Moves a little bit like Jose Alvarado. It's been quiet here so no idea what the current situation is. I think hes waiting on us.

He’s an all conference defender. Even at 6 feet tall he’ll be leagues better than JJ. He’s a perfect option. Gillon made being short work, why can’t this guy

We can start a bottle drive…

 

[Cusefan0307]

did we blow it all on Lampkin?

I’m sure people will disagree, but I’d rather have a legit lead guard than a plodding center….

I just hired a new person on my team that makes $100k more than another at the same title. It was completely worth it. Now the other person doesn’t know that and likely won’t find out, but I really don’t care even if they did.

100K more? Jfc I would flip if I found out. That’s breaking the most basic rule of job harmonization and will inevitably lead to attrition or the need to completely reset all your years pay scale.

If they were worth that much more, why wouldn’t you hire them at a higher level and avoid the impending drama

What I meant was the people in the community that are now giving to the football collective that since they are now giving to the football only collective they will not be giving to the basketball collective. Hence HCFB went in the community and took all the potential NIL business and swung them to the football only collective. Not saying HCFB took money from the collective more that he took potential donors and swayed them to football only.

I don't think its a simple as people in the community suddenly woke up and stuck 5 mil into football. Fran clearly has his own thing working.

I think this collective has a lot to do with it for football.

lol you act like this is new. I’ve done the same more than a couple times - in certain fields now talent differential is worth it. Especially when the opposite is having a semblance of work life balance when you have had to do run yourself ragged for two decades and have to face the same if you don’t bring in top talent.

So how do we get former hoopers who’ve done well to build something like this….?

Good question, I always thought our basketball alums were pretty engaged but maybe just with going to the games.

Grant is the only one currently making big bucks.

Our roster of highly successful NBA players isn’t all that deep unfortunately which doesn’t help.

I wonder if Dome events for NIL can become a thing to in order to raise money. We just need those creative juices to merge with desire to see the program soar

Right… im more going back the past 30 years even vs just recently but still.

Agreed - we are lucky that we do have a superstar / mega rich guy who is loyal 100%.

 

[SP_Gilbs]

Getting Kiyan has the potential to jump start our NIL as well. im sure Melo would do everything in his power to get his son surrounded with the best possible team. Not only does he have his nba fame and earnings but he also seems to be making a name for himself with his business ventures.

LOL. Not remotely how it works.

100% this. It’s the biggest difference between fball and bball. I even heard that one individual alone was able to bring in donors who contributed $3-$3.5m.

 

[Cuse181]

Maybe not at a backwards place that doesn’t care about retention lol Imagine thinking in a society that is normalizing salary discussions that paying someone 100K more than their same level co workers doesn’t end up costing the employer significant money or employees. This reeks of the “Why don’t people want to work” generation.

That for NIL portion of it and, as Jake made reference to, reallocating athletic dept funds to football for the in-house support portion. Seems the admin is really going all-in on football, which inevitably causes all other sports to take a hit.

Beyond that there doesn’t seem to be many bball alums who are overly successful outside of their athletic careers like fb does. Who’s the Lally of Cuse basketball?

I would hope that our well known Newhouse media grads would be a great source of support too.

There was a study done on how much more effective “A” level employees are than others. It’s like 4X or 5X. It proved that you can’t pay too much for top talent.

Incentives the lesser talent to move on

I wonder how many of those who are involved in sports media/announcing would be reluctant to contribute with the thought of wanting to be objective for their profession though? I can only imagine the uproar if we were playing Duke and found out the announcer was a Duke grad who had contributed a million to their collective? Just a thought.
