Wrong.

You think we're paying any kid $10 million? We don't have oilman backers. Our sweet spot is 15-35. Great talent, lower NIL.

No single player in the NCAA is getting 10 million in NIL. Where is this number coming from? Our NIL is competitive. One of the best in the country. We have multiple players getting a million-ish.

Template seems to point at a pretty specific direction at this point - 1 McD AA that can contribute immediately, then 1-2 other guys that could stick around a couple years to build culture around. This way, you keep the NBA first round pipeline going to continue to attract high end talent with future McD AAs while maintaining a core of year over year guys that can soak in and push the culture/system to portal adds, etc.

Not going to lie , you’re prob right. But he reminds me of Emoni Bates lol. I’ve seen the KD comparison and i just don’t see it.

I agree he seems more Emoni than KD.

Haven’t seen any film with athleticism that pops and his movements are more mechanical than smooth. Which is what separates the Emonis from KD.
