Drake
- Thread starter EagleHawk
- Start date
That's close but still a bit higher than my understanding for last year. And it only applied to four returners so the total is quite a bit less than the $1.2M previously posted. I don't believe we paid to get players out of the portal for the 2023-2024 season. The landscape is fast moving so this year might have been quite a bit different.
There are 7 players on the roster in that pay range while the others receive more of a “base” pay coming in just above 1.5m this year.
Another 30 point game for Stirtz playing all 40 minutes.
Drake is good but I worry about their starting minutes.

Yup. On a bit of a slide now.
MVC is essentially always a 1 bid league.
Drake can afford to have a lull as long as they are cooking again by Arch Madness. It was highly unlikely they were going to sustain the level of play they started the season with.
Tough loss and they really struggled, but the other team threw in at least 5 prayers. Drake also missed at least 7/8 layups. Just was not meant to win today.
Tough one to drop today. The scout on them is obviously out now so they’ll need to adjust. One thing that the last two games have shown is there is a noticeable lack of girth for these former D2 guys going against athletes who have had 3+ years of D1 strength and conditioning.
Big one Wednesday.

Yup, just look at Sandfort and his multiple years of d-1 strength and conditioning
Great fundamentals - night and day what we see with Fran coached teams
Hope they can make madness so I have a team to cheer for.
I was able to watch the second half while listening to the Hawks. Drake is disciplined, rebounds, and plays good defense. Not high scoring, but not boring either.
I would take McCollum as head coach at Iowa any day.
Stirtz continues to be absolutely amazing. Leads the league in PTS, Steals, and Assists.
