Basketball transfer portal

[zephyr]

And Hardy will leave if he has a big year unless UL has a strong NIL program across the board. All these players are chasing money, it’s the game today. Coaching is changing, don’t envy anyone in college athletics today.

And how much money are these other mid level G5 schools raising? Are we like the Sisters of the poor compared to the rest of them? A guy like Julien is not going to Memphis. He's going to go to some other mid level G5 program. How much more money will they have to offer him? Are they more active in going out into the community and raising those funds?

They do now.

The difference now is it has been artificially induced.

Before the portal, before NIL, from the beginning of his time at UL, Marlin had trouble holding on to players.

Moreso than the average of "the other 250 or so similarly situated P5 and G5 schools."

On average only the one-and-done NBA departure schools had more, yes a lot more.

With the portal, with NIL, "the other 250 or so similarly situated P5 and G5 schools" have caught up and it is universal probem.

Do you have statistics on this or is it self serving conjecture?

[ZoomZoom]

Was a mid season departure about the money?

Never know unless made public. But that never stops speculation and agendas.

[Turbine]

From the start 2011 roster:

Darnell Jackson, 1-Year early departure
J.J. Thomas 2-years early departrure

Wait until the reseating in every other sport.

You keep saying this, but I haven’t seen anything that has indicated that, outside of football.

It’s coming and IMHO will shrink our fan base.

As far as football goes, I can’t swing club tickets, my current seats UD2 Row 6 seats 11&12 are increasing by 700%.

I really do wish I could swing it, I know the amenities that come with club seats are far superior to what we’ve had for the previous 15 years. Half the price I think I could swing it, but not what they are asking now.

What are they asking for club seats and what are supposed to be the amenities?
