I think Jerome Tang might be reason #1 why I'm in favor of NIL and players getting all they can, while they can.
Tang inherits Marquis Nowell (recruited/signed by Bruce Weber) and takes a risk on Johnson with the heart issue - and manages to luck into the elite 8, and gets rewarded with a 7 yr contract extension.
Nowell and Johnson are now minor league pros playing for peanuts, and Tang cashes in on $25 million.
And if someone is dumb enough to pay coleman hawkins $2.5 million - congrats to him, way to go kid, take advantage of these idiot boosters!

I think Joshua Jefferson puts up similar numbers to Hawkins this year, on about 1/15th of his NIL salary.
Michigan’s size is really bothering them. Good thing Michigan is turning it over every other possession.
TCU's been pretty sloppy too. We'll see if they can get over the hump.
WVU @ Pitt ESPN+ at 7pm. We will see if WVU is a top 100 team or not. I like the Devries hire, and theoretically in the NIL era you shouldnt need time to build a team.
He did sign two 4 star high school kids, WVU's 1st 4 star in over 3 years.
Pitt's coach said WVU has been soft since huggins left, so that should motivate the WVU players.
