Some of those frontcourt guys have to go. I like nzeh’s size and motor for sure. Who knows if he ever develops but hope he lands in a spot that allows him to for his sake. Good luck to him.
So a guy goes into the portal...Northwest Southeastern Utah Technical State offers him $50K.
Then he calls up Miller and says I want to come back...do you have $55K?
What a way to run a pop shop.
Definitely seems like an extreme example but I get your point. Having said that, I guarantee agents and players alike will see playing opportunity as a big part of it. If Nzeh can go somewhere he could make similar or even less money- but be a starter, it’s probably more beneficial both as development and for getting a bigger NIL deal down the way.
I know people worry about the blue bloods raiding mid major schools, but I think you’ll see a lot of them also get talent back. Talent they wouldn’t normally be getting by offering decent money but guaranteed minutes.
It’s called capitalism, I have noticed some on here love it when it works how they like it and hate it when it works how they don’t.Quote:
