Doing the grind will soon pay dividends

 

[Horatio]

Nice. I notice they included players that are currently playing in the league but put our greatest guy at the top. Good job

 

[MDHuskFan]

No Rip....

 

[dante]

No Caron..

 

[Dove]

No Pubes...

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

No more room ...

Would it be more impressive with about 20 guys who had more than a cup of coffee NBA careers (e.g. Rip, Caron, Donyell, CV, Ben, Jake, etc.) included with the current NBA players or would that just make the graphic too busy? I'm sure whoever put this together had that dilemma.

As a marketing tool, it probably works best to show all the guys that the young kids are familiar with. I don't think Jake for instance is going to move the needle much. Easier to identify with a few knowns, than a whole mass of guys you can't even see or recognize.

So not a pie chart with a skinny slice for Jake?

Should've had Hilton, just to get perspective on how tall each guy is.

Can't forget Travis Knight.

Can't forget Travis Knight.

Enjoying life on a pretty rewarding cup of coffee and chilling at his own Pacific Ocean-side beach resort.

It’s a Billion. You didn’t factor in Chief’s
Payments for being a “Preferred Entourage”
Member for some of those guys.

Difference upon a careful review is, in the good guys tweet, the athletes attended UConn, in the other tweet it mentions the earnings of athletes coached by members of the Rutgers staff alluding that they were Rutgers athletes, in fact I see a bunch of Huskies in the Rutgers tweet.

Of course these amounts do not include other former Huskies who have earned substantial monies in the NBA which is what the UConn tweet states.
