Message: [QUOTE="Blakeon18, post: 4269769, member: 35"] Not just for Paige but for any college athlete who is making 'considerable' bucks via NIL, you would think that financial considerations would at least be considered in any contemplation of stay another year or go pro. Regarding the WNBA we know what those salaries look like. As for making much more in some leagues overseas...certainly to be considered...but does doing that help build your brand here? Playing great...winning rings in China or Turkey...as have some of our forever Huskies have done...does that help you build a brand in the USA more than an extra year at a high profile program...getting on TV regularly and making money from NIL [as much or more in some cases than foreign salaries]? Do MOST fans of women's hoops really care about games in far-off countries...are they aware of rings and such unless they are earned in college or the WNBA? [/QUOTE]
