Old Mediocre Has-Been Desperate To Appear Relevant; aka JBo To Return

[Clonefan32]

So apparently JBo is willing to come back for his 13th year, but only if they pass legislation to allow him to profit off his NIL:



So much to unpack here. Is there much of a desire to have him back? Plus, what exactly is Jordan Bohannon's NIL worth? Can't be more than what he'd make in his future career, be it basketball, coaching or otherwise, right?

Where do I sign up to make sure this bill passes?!

Can I slip some money under the table somewhere?

Hok basketball will be dullsville next year without the JorBoCMac show.

 

[CyTwins]

Hopefully he comes back

 

[Rural]

Will he get to have a merch table at the games?

 

[Clonefan32]

I'm not sure this is going to end quite the way Jordan envisioned. Reads more as a threat than a promise.

 

[Buster28]

I'd be ok with never seeing his smug mug ever again.

Agreed. However, I was in the student section Haluska return game to Hilton. Epic. I would hope this could be on similar levels....

 

[nfrine]

Is there a demand for JorBo signed shoes?

 

[CyTwins]

Is there any way if he came back he could be the second leading all time scorer at Iowa? That would be amazing to see his name up there

 

[Trice]

His ceaseless thirst for unearned adoration is among the more pathetic public spectacles I've ever seen.

 

[Rabbuk]

Seems silly to come back for 12 dollars

I understand him fighting for the NIL for future guys, and I think that’s great. But he needs to move on.

 

[Brandon]

He needs punched in his tiny mouth.

It's more like:

That's my take. It's a nice issue to take up, but I'm not sure he's the guy to be carrying the pro-NIL torch.

 

[cyfan92]

Is he only a year away from a PhD at this point? He was the oldest player in D1 if I remember correctly for this last season...

He must really not want to go work at Enterprise at the Cedar Rapids Airport

 

[ClockHawk69]

That's my take. It's a nice issue to take up, but I'm not sure he's the guy to be carrying the pro-NIL torch.

To be fair, he’s the guy who has kind of brought it to the forefront. I understand wanting to finish what you start, but coming back just so you can profit isn’t the way to go.
