quickdraw Posted May 10 Author Share Posted May 10 Can’t recruit this guy. He only shoots 59% from the line and we wouldn’t want him on the floor with the game on the line, right? I thought that was the line around here a week ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEEP NIL pockets. Apparently their basic NIL deal for a scholarship basketball player is $75,000 per year, a condo, and a car and have the potential to gas that up big-time. Is UNLV's base deal still $500/month or the use of a car at Findlay Toyota? lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosegreen Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Who cares? He can rebound and defend. Not a stiff by any means. Ezewiro is a 4/5 tweener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dedan supposedly will get a nice deal but I don’t track these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they learned their lesson after they lost Udeze to UNM for PEANUTS on the NIL payscale... like an extra $10-$20k or something. Imagine getting outbid by UNM, then Kruger gets Karl Jones and tells the boosters/admin that this is what we get stuck with when you cheap-out. Stupid. Udeze would've probably bought them *atleast* another 3-wins so it's whatever 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, given what great things his bro surely said about playing for a team that reached last year's NCG, I wouldn't be surprised to see him thumb his nose at NIL coin and come play on the Mesa. So look at the bright side... you might get to see him play on the same court as the Rebels twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
