  1. Not defending his takes but do you really expect the first pick of the draft to go to college?
  2. I’d rather get the best players we can and win than suck shit through a straw with a bunch of kids you watched play in HS.
  3. Pretty sure they’re putting it out through media channels that they have much more money than they actually do, at one point people on twitter were reporting they had 50 million which is laughable. Mike Bibby’s only coaching experience is HS and that was from 2015-2019, Shaq has no experience in a GM role at all, Brennan Marion took the best HC offer he could get. None of these guys were money whipped away from better programs, they’re just the one willing to give them a shot for the publicity associated with their names. As far as recruiting their HS class was ranked in the 120’s and their transfer class is full of P5 washouts and big name busts. They haven’t pulled a single name that I’m aware of that had significantly better offers.
  4. Not sure how reliable he is but Charlie Williams from 247 said a few weeks ago he expected Texas to land both.
  5. So basically if you don’t like what they say they’re an access merchant and if you do like it they’re a reporter? Am I doing that right?
  6. Eric Morris discovered Ward and then took him with him when he went to Wazzu.
  7. Once again I don’t think you realize the thread you are in, check the title for the name. You obviously aren’t going to figure this out so I’ll let you go back to licking the windows clean.
  8. Brother do you know what thread your are in right now? See below…
  9. There is a major hole in that theory/interpretation too, Jonah Williams wasn’t drafted and signed out of HS and isn’t going to leave school for another 3 years. The hypothetical is if Jonah Williams is a potential top 3 round NFL and MLB prospect would he forgo NFL for MLB. The only player to do that in the last 30 years is Samardzija.
  10. @CycleTex87 can correct me if I’m wrong but I interpreted his question as in a star CFB player choosing between NFL and MLB draft. Not a HS prospect choosing between 1st round MLB money and a redshirt season.
  11. Another big factor is his family has been through the MLB process with his older brother being a 2nd rounder out of high school and having a cup of coffee in the show. His family will understand better than anybody the grind of the major leagues and trying to make it past those arbitration years if you do make it.
  12. How many of those 1200 actually had a scholarship to start?
  13. So you don’t have anything, got it. Once again I’m going to take Goodman’s reporting since he’s probably talked directly to people involved in the negotiations over what you think makes sense.
  14. Do you have anything that says it’s not? I’m probably going to take Jeff Goodman’s reporting over yours, no offense.
  15. Nope, that article is from this past Saturday and has this direct quote from Jeff Goodman. “His buyout was really high a year ago. He renegotiated – $4 million right now. Nothing. It’s nothing,” national college basketball reporter Jeff Goodman said Friday on The Field of 68 podcast. “So the big question is, would T.J. Otzelberger want that job?” So if Indiana really wanted Otzelberger, the price tag wouldn’t be in the way. It would appear to come down to whether Otzelberger wants to leave Ames.
