Mountain West

Does NIL and unlimited transfers mean the end of Mountain West and other Mid Major programs having any relevance whatsoever? Will all the non P4 conferences be like the SWAC or SOUTHERN? It seems it will be like the Yankees with no salary cap against the A's with a salary cap. Will top college players forgo the NBA till all their eligibility is used because they are making more in college than they will get going pro? Will the NCAA be able to maintain any relevance? If your team has no chance to compete why pay big $$ for a coach? Why waste $$ on NIL? If our conference is irrelevant how many fans will stay loyal? If not, why play in the MACK?

When NIL was first announced I thought it could be the end of relevant sports for the Rebels. But I didn't really believe it for some reason. But now - I'm not so sure.

Curious..

Is this 2 year handshake legitimate b/w DTJ & UNLV or did the NIL money come thru & get close to UH & others? Honestly curious about how this worked out?

If I’m DTJ.. I milk the home university for as much as I can.. Collect.. Have another stellar Sophomore/season, & then transfer to P5, collect some more.. DTJ can leave college ball & live comfortably for the rest of his days.. Depending on his motivations..

As far as next season goes, I’m starting to picture a team that will compete, still depending how everything transpires..

We got continuity/talent returning.. Some incoming freshman that meet the eye test.. But what do we actually get? To me, depends on what CKK does with these 4 scholarships, get some scorers around DTJ, could be something good brewing.. But honestly, that’s hopeful thinking.. Yet, I can picture it.. So at the least, I’ll take it..

NCAA finals

Watched the women next year. Here’s a weird one for you.

Regarding the women; Clark seems to always be in the middle of a cultural love/hate war. She’s loved in Iowa. And Iowa values women’s hoops. Should she stay in the NCAA instead of jump to the WNBA? I’m assuming her NIL at Iowa would be far higher than any of our men get … should she just stay, go another year of dominating, try to win that title, postpone the WNBA controversy that is sure to hit once she enters … while enjoying a nice NIL deal? Could an NIL and a situation be more favorable than the contract in the league?

With Men - Purdue has no shot. UNLV records may fall.
