Liking the other board. Hopefully, there is a solid migration over.

Yikes. RIP MWC board.

It's been a rough stretch for Lobo basketball fans with Rueben Douglas and now Drew Gordon passing on way too young. Drew was a class act and an absolute stud here. RIP and thoughts to his family.

Semi pro American football leagues historically always fail. The more the P4 or more specifically the top 30-40 programs move in this direction, the more they run that risk. Why would the average fan want to watch inferior quality professionals and teams when they can just watch the NFL? Again, this won't be an issue overnight, but it is absolutely going to erode the popularity of CFB over time.

I'm interested as well. The NFL is an absolute juggernaut when it comes to marketing, logistics, bargaining agreements, and organizational structure. The more CFB moves away from traditional rivalries, regional connections and the culture/history associated with it the more it is going to try adopt an NFL lite model. That's going to fail, pretty spectacularly imo. When that is stripped away, all you will have is an inferior product to the NFL. Might take a decade, but it's basically going to be pigskin late stage capitalism.

Bronco at 7. Honestly, if he can't at the very least turn UNM into a consistent 6 or 7 win team, there's really no hope for Lobo football.

Lol. Are some people really writing off arguably the most successful Western CBB team in the country in May?

This one is intriguing. Super athletic and long, good defender, was a top 3 recruit out of Canada in 2023. His production hasn't matched his raw ability yet. It will be interesting to see what Pitino can get out of him. Fills a definite need of a long athletic wing.
-
It's wild. He's probably going to be an 11 and 7 guy in the Big 10. Nice to have, at that price, it's crazy.
-
That comes out to almost $10,000 per flop!
-
He's definitely an upgrade from Seb. Stronger, better athlete, better shot blocker, quicker jumper etc. If he can get the fouling situation under control, he'll get significant minutes and be a major contributer Something Forsling didn't wasn't the past two years.

I think that is largely irrelevant to be honest. If the agent was advising JT to move on to a bigger NIL deal/new school where the agency gets a cut, then fine. Signal that early in the window to UNM. It was bush league to not signal and wait to the 11th hour to do so. UNM at minimum likely lost out on Jerry Deng because of this.
