Kansas jailhawks?

Why on earth did they steer the kid to Overtime Elite?

Indiana after missing on Boogie

 

[Huskyforlife]

I really hope Indiana didn’t offer this kid 400k. That’s just crazy.

 

[superjohn]

I remember Brandon Austin, that kid threw away his talent.

 

[superjohn]

I remember he was Philly, had a brainfart there. Kid transferred to Oregon and then he sued them for $7.5 million after they kicked him out. No idea what happened to him after that.

Coping, sad to see honestly

WTF does any of this have to do with a UConn secret scrimmage. Unless it’s all code, in which case it’s brilliant.

 

[CL82]

Wait, caw is Boomer Esiason? Who knew?

 

[BGesus4]

At least English is a lock to knock the coaching piece out of the park like he has everywhere he’s been

Have you tried not being poor?

Apparently the Kia dealership NIL funds are all tapped out for next year

It will be interesting to see when these players in the NIL era go to the league and start talking more about how much they were getting in NIL money. Right now, it's not super clear what the going rate is.

I have a hard time believing that a 3* player who, frankly, isn't very good... is getting 400k. He's not even a starting caliber player.

 

[husky429]

Never said he wasn't a high-major player. I said he's not a starting-caliber player. And that is true.

I watched him play a few times. He's a fine player who will end up being productive given time. People are really overrating the level of competition in OTE. He's got some moves, but he's small, not a very good finisher, and is a meh shooter. Entertaining player though.

He was absolutely not the best guard in OTE, lol. There are OTE guards in the league right now dude.

Is he worth 400k? That I don't really know. But if that's the going rate for a first guard off the bench, then it's a good investment.

 

[Psolo12]

okay wait a second, best guard in OTE? You know an OTE guard went in the lottery right?

 

[UCfor3]

There are plenty of people that talk out of their arse but 429 watches a lot of basketball. He is not one of them. His scouting reports are comprehensive on high school players. He's not a guy to make a statement just based on rankings or a star system. If you share a different opnion on his abilities, so be it, but he doesn't just throw lazy opinions on prospects out there with no basis or first hand knowledge. Just an FYI.

So how did the Harvard scrimmage go?
