Re: Portal

As Matt pointed out, Loyola-CHI and Richmond won the regular season. The former had 7 seniors and grad transfers, and the latter started 5 seniors. Smart says buck the trend - recruit HS kids and keep them (although the last point is easier said that done). This seems like the right strategic move ...

Re: Portal

How much are the Reigels paying MBB players? If we don’t know that, then I doubt we have a good sense of what others are paying.

Re: Portal

I’m pretty sure Namath’s taking money or gifts to play college football would have violated the rules of his era. Osobor, like Namath, is not breaking the rules. But Namath’s choices regarding how he celebrated and spent his hard-earned (NFL) dollars struck me as similarly “obscene,” if that’s the t...

He's also visiting Washington, who just paid $2 million in NIL for a transfer. :shock:

Re: Portal

Laput led Bentley in scoring, with 20.0 points per game. But he also led them in assists, with 4.3 per game. So maybe he could run point (but he also averaged 2.7 turnovers per game—and his A/TO ratio was not the best on his team).
