Message: [QUOTE="HooperScooper, post: 5335852, member: 10"] Interesting article if you follow recruiting, from Matt Norlander of CBS Sports. Talks about how recruiting is in a stalemate right now because of the change to revenue sharing from the NIL system. Most schools don't even know what their budgets are so they're either lying to the recruits or offering them packages that are less than some other schools. Lots of interesting quotes from coaches. [I]"This is about who can sign players that can guarantee money, and as you look deeper, if you can't guarantee money to incoming guys, how can you guarantee it to your returnees?" one source in the Midwest said. "Things are going to start shifting quick. The power schools, usually when they get frustrated, action follows. Will we see the collectives run wild? Nobody knows what to do right now." Shy of the coach convincing himself to fork over more than 25% of his budget on a player with zero college experience, he's probably going to lose out on what might be his top high school target. The agent will find $1 million plus because he believes the market will exist, even if it's not there right now. "There's a level of education that we've been trying to do with agents," one Big Ten coach said. "You have some that understand and some that refuse to hear it. Three-fourths don't get it or they think you're lying to them."[/I] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/college-basketball-commitments-plummet-amid-big-changes-in-recruiting-nobody-knows-what-to-do-right-now/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
