Because players that averaged 3 points last season are asking for $1M


Link?

Also the caliber of player makes a big difference here. A former 5* that didn't play much asking for $1m versus a 3* that played the whole season are two very different things.

Not to mention the SG from Wisky that went to Duke has reportedly gotten more than $7M to go to Duke. If $15M is out budget, then the top players will be half the budget.

So, could easily be one highly rated prospect that thinks he deserves to paid like it.

Sure I guess but the fact that not many have signed shows there is a big disconnect between what the schools are willing to pay and the what the players are asking. If the numbers were similar, you'd see guys popping.

Another report of guys getting crazy money. $15M will only get us 3 good players. We need 12 guys to fill out a roster.

From the guy who’s mantra is “recruiting rankings mean nothing” that’s pretty hypocritical

Crazy to think Wade could field a 5 man roster and still have a better SEC record than McMahon....

Sentences aren’t supposed to end in a preposition and this idiot ends one with two. Not only is his thought idiotic, his sentence structure is as well.

You do know that people with learning disabilities like yourself can seek and get help for that right?

Until somebody with enough pull can lay down some ground rules to this NIL and
transfer portal mess, it’s gonna just continue to get even more outlandish with the spending. You got some desperate mofos out there that is willing to see their team win a championship no matter what the cost is and willing to chance it blowing up in their face when the team flops.

Maybe it's just more level paying ground and it's harder to get players. That's what happens when you hire a mediocre coach.

Right. Cuz that explains why very few players have signed anywhere...

So, how many weeks before Wade signs someone? I guess we do have a few months...
