Message: [QUOTE="JimBoston, post: 4634094, member: 1312"] I look at it this way. If you do a net present value of the earnings of the top players, their professional careers will far outweigh their NIL deals. For them, development is far more important. Don't get me wrong, players will want to make some money, but they are going to want to be developed and given the opportunity to compete in the NCAA Tournament to increase their marketability. And, the coaches and the administration have to create an environment that will keep players excited about playing for your school. Look at a school like Kentucky. Plenty of NIL money and player perks. Always have a top recruiting class and loaded with NBA players. NCAAT championships in the past 10 years? Zero. If you were a Kentucky fan, would you rather have the #1 recruiting class or an NCAA Championship? [/QUOTE]
