On3 released an article today about the impact of NIL on the transfer portal with it opening up today. Here’s a crazy quote.
“Sources told On3 that high majors aim to field a roster with a payroll between $1 and $3 million, with the top spenders pushing more than $4 million.”...
We had this discussion in another thread about how well known the talent in today’s game is or isn’t. Y’all know me, if I get called out for not knowing what I’m talking about I’m just going to find examples.
From people who are overall basketball/sports fans (not just people who are cbb...
Couple of interesting things here.
“The visit to Connecticut went about as well as it could’ve. In any other situation, with any other recruit, UConn would’ve sealed the deal with the attention to detail they put into this visit.”
Also confirms that Flagg canceled the KU visit because they...
Would be federally relegated to preempt State laws.

The Athletic has a much more in depth article on it. Not sure if this stops the upfront bags. But it’s good to have everyone playing on the...
Great message for the kids. With this mindset I hope Andre lasts in the league for a long time and gets a chance at being a starter again. Think he turns 30 this season but he’s still one of the better athletes as a big in the league.
I’m just starting this thread because I feel like this topic takes a lot of threads off track. So this could help keep it contained in one place.
There’s a discussion going on in the Ahmad thread that Rutgers would’ve preferred to have Cam Spencer over the #1 and #2 freshman in the country for...
Castle firmly in the top 10 and Jayden Ross is ranked as high as 41 and one of the biggest risers in the final update.

Can those who are much smarter on these more important kind of things break this down please? I want to say they are going to try and do something about Pay For Play? But I’m mostly just confused.

-17.5
Super high. DePaul has only lost one game in conference by that much (at home to Marquette).
I know we’re playing well but sheesh. Hard to touch that.
We’ve now gotten revenge from our early season losses on everyone except Xavier who has Fremantle hurt.
Took Marquette and Providence to the woodshed at home. Guess where the BET is held basically?
Our struggles during the slump (Sanogo offense, Andre Jackson 4 on 5 offense) seems to be fully...
Started at -10.5 and is now up to -11.5
O/U at 145.5
We haven’t played well on the road against anyone besides Butler, but we have seemed to make some adjustments these past 2 games.
Do those adjustments carry over into this game to help us cover?
I’m a Michigan football fan and right now apparently he’s not on speaking terms with Jim Harbaugh and might be getting let go soon.
Got me thinking back to how his tenure here almost put us in irrelevancy with how he handled the Big East breakup… Once again showing he doesn’t have the spine to...
-4.5 on FanDuel
Over Under 141.5
Beat Marquette recently who has been pretty good in Big East play.
Probably not going to touch this one but with this being a rivalry game, Providence playing well as late, and it being on the road for us, it’d be impressive if we ended up winning...
-2.5
Wooooo that’s a close one. If we think we’ll win it’s a pretty good bet. Looks like our toughest test of the year on the road.
O/U 149.5 as well.
Xavier 73.5 points
UConn 76.5 points
Thoughts?
I think our biggest weakness right now is our ability to drive to the basket from the perimeter. Our offense slows down so much when we aren’t hitting our shots which is scary seeing how we lost our last few tourney games.
Andre and Hawkins have to learn to be able to effectively take it to...
-23.0
Over/Under 146.5
Seems kind of high to me personally. It’s scary because while they aren’t a well coached team, they are talented. They may have emotional reasons to play up this game (homecoming for Spears and Akok), but we are the #1 team ( f the polls) in the country. So we can blow...
It’s good to see what a Hurley team can do when led by his recruits.
Watching Sanogo, Jackson, and Hawkins lead with freshmen like AK and DC stepping up have been so fun to see. The transfers have been very solid, especially Joey C but this is the first time we’ve seen a team led mostly by his...
39.5 and the team line hasn’t been posted yet.
They’ve been blown out by every somewhat good team they’ve played this year according to @Hey Adrien! (including 33 to Towson) that’s still a huge line though.
Thoughts?
Currently at 10.5 point favorites.
Depending on what people got in the spread in the buffalo game we are undefeated there on the season.
Think this is kind of low and that trend can continue.
Thoughts?
First game as dogs on the year at +1.5 on FD as it stands right now.
Other lines to look out for:
Total: 148.5
UConn Total: 74.5
Alabama Total: 74.5
