Yet somehow this fairytale has ballooned to most of the SEC spending $6M - $8M against which poor ole Matt had just enough money to compete for 15-20 minutes before the gas tank was empty?

By the time we get to July the tale will be 14 of the 16 SEC teams spent $25M - $30M this past season


It is an arms race…

Then he'll make about as much as MM will next season....

He is the lowest paid coach in the conference on an annual basis.

So if what your saying is accurate, is there a chance we just paid a kid the biggest NIL salary as of today?

I’d rather go 0-fer in hoops and spend the money on football/baseball/sex

Yea I can’t imagine what a starting transfer player from somewhere like Duke would cost you.

Waste of money without a coaching change.

emphasis on mid level guys to develop


Not a thing anymore pal. We either spend like the winning teams do for talent or have our roster picked clean by the teams that do pay

I love college baseball but some of you refuse to understand it will never have the earning potential a winning basketball program has, so leaving basketball to die to focus on baseball would be fricking stupid in an era where revenue matters more than ever. It used to be lagniappe if a program made money, now it’s kind of mandatory

This shite is out of control. Paying a player 2 mil to probably miss the tournament
