Message: [QUOTE="nelsonmuntz, post: 5179649, member: 833"] One of the other issues UConn has is it is a young team, and these other squads are made up of grown men. UConn has two frosh and 3 sophomores in its top 10. Swain is the only rotation player that is sophomore or younger on Xavier that has gotten meaningful playing time. Experience matters. Worth its own thread, but not only is NIL keeping older players in college longer, but they are working harder too. 10 years ago, if you were not on a pro track, then what was the point of really putting time in after the beginning of your Junior year? A lot of older players mailed it in before NIL. Now players can get paid for production, so they are busting their butts in the offseason, and it shows in the product on the court. It is looking more and more like a pro product. [/QUOTE]
