Nice interview.
Woke up thinking about Maryland basketball. How good can Saylor be in her final season. Will Smikle, Garzon, Saylor, and Okanawa all start together. In any event I came across this video. Maybe I missed this legislation. I'm sure it's been covered on the board. But does this kinda circumvent the whole international players making money in college issue, as they were not eligible for NIL. Tbh this could be just a lack of journalism in this piece but are colleges simply just paying players directly including international players. Apologies if this is the wrong thread to discuss the latter.

It may be worth a different thread, but you're not alone in the confusion. Through my friends with kids playing in the US, I've gotten the impression that things have changed. More schools are paying their international students directly. I have also noticed a trend with more international MBB players committing to NCAA programs lately. Considering some of the programs they're leaving, which have developed NBA pros, this is a significant change from a few years ago.

I have always admired how some programs release their full season schedule back in August. Sometimes in July. Michigan and Minnesota, and a few other Big Ten teams, have not posted anything on their 2025-26 schedule. Then we got Maryland. Over there posting their '25-'26 schedule all early and junk. Nobody likes a showoff, Maryland, USC, and Oregon. Just chill posting your schedules so early.
