Or any game when someone gets after him defensively. Disappearing act
Source? I think it's closer to 10% is standard. Like a PGA caddy..
It went like this: Creighton's booster heard Josh was considering transferring to his home town. Josh's agent said let's see the money. And said, if you throw in enough $$$$ we will get in Owen's ear and see if Creighton can land'em both. Josh got a little recruiting bonus for referring Owen...
maybe, just maybe.
I thought I heard that Josh was sick on the trip to CA. I think he sat the entire second half. Hard to play defense 1 or 2 on 5. Thelwell was the other + defender. Several were not even close to average.
There is no one in charge. The Supreme Court told the ncaa they have no authority.
The ncaa only ever had the authority that the schools gave them anyway.
There's no legal way to have some NIL, it's all or nothing. Everyone used to understand this that's why it was all illegal.
It's the schools that should have been paying the players. If the schools wanted that to happen 20 years ago it would have happened.
It's rumored it was settled during what is now called "The Dinner".
Again, not sure why you guys are upset. Dix, Sandfort, all came here to play a different brand of ball than the new coach. McCollum I’m sure would have like Dix to stay but they’re not going to play the way he’s used to. Creighton gets up and down the court and it’s across the river. All parties will be fine.
Pretty much spot on, Omaha peeps are saying about 1.8 million per player for Dix and Freeman.
Neither worth that much
I never said they were however they were both near the top of the portal in ratings. If you want players, you got to pay big $$$.
College basketball if f***ed
They’re worth what someone is willing to pay. Could we find another player that gets you 90% of the production? Maybe. But typically teams pay a premium knowing the extra 10% production is what really matters.
There's a simple fix for players who instigated contact, be it the player, agent, or family: automatic ineligibility for remainder of season for said player if the school decides. No more room, board, tuition, books, whatever. It effectively renders said player ineligible for NEXT school for "lack of academic progress".
For teams that do it? Same. No post-season once contact is established/proven/admitted.
For agents? Immediate DQ from representing any and all college players.
No salary cap and unlimited free agency are ruining college sports at the D1 level. Only until fans begin to lose significant interest and the money dries up will it be forced to change. Until then, it will only get worse.
No, not in this case anyway.
Owen showed his true colors by coming in fat and out of shape last year then pulled a pussy move quitting on his team. Dix is streaky and while a nice player he disappears way too often.
Similar to the housing market there are jackasses willing to pay far above true market value because they’re fortunate enough to have the funds to do so, not realizing they’ll never get their investment back down the road.
Unfortunately there seem to be no guard rails in place at the moment.
Needs to be fixed.
not really. It's the NCAA's fault for not acting on it and regulating it early on. They should have had a plan in place and not let it get to the courts. They f'ed themselves.
Regardless of the cut, I don't think people truly understand that some of the money they're paying these collectives is going to these agents' cuts of each..."NIL"...deal they help get players.
I wonder if they knew just how much money was going not to the players they think they're helping "buy", but to blood-sucking leeches who are looking to get the highest deals, not only for the player, but also to inflate their cut of the deal as well.........
Just another reason why I won't flip a single dime towards any collective, regardless of how big a tantrum people like @RicoSuave102954 throw about fans not contributing. 🤷♂️
Right, it’s obvious that the “ he hated Freeman “ story was all bullshit all the time.
Sounds like Dix took visit to ILL and listening to an offer from IU to leverage more $ from creighton‘s initial offer.
I don’t like it at all. I’ve contributed, but I’m re-thinking it. One thing that Heinrichs and Tyler Barnes have said is that an agent or recruit starts with how much am I going to get, they’re done with that agent or player. I do like that approach, at least it’s something. So, I’ll probably stay a sap and give but I don’t fault those who don’t want to. I get it.
That's your choice but keep quiet when the team goes sub .500 because they just can't compete. I like our new coaching staff but he's not Norman Dale.
Somehow, I don't believe you understand how it works. The agent gets a cut out of whatever the school pays the player. That'a a deal between the player and the agent not the school. I'm not sure if every player hires an agent some may have a familty memberr or preacher (an Al Sharpton type) do the negotiating.

First of all, that's never gonna happen again because Iowa > everyone, including your favorite team, and you can deal with it.

Poors like you shouldn't be commenting on something you can't afford to begin with.
Creighton had feelers out to Josh long before Fran was fired. Dix possibly going to Creighton was in the works right after the 1st of the year.
Don't get mad just because I make better decisions with my money than you.
So let's get Creighton death penalty'd............
Creighton thinks they are world beaters now because they have Dix.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I predict Creighton will not be as good next year given the guys, they lost versus the guys they have now (including Freeman and Dix). JMO
So, if I give $1000 to the Swarm, which is used, along with other funds, to pay a player to come to Iowa, and that player has an agent charging 20%, effectively $200 of my money is going to that agent. I think I get how it works. I want agents out of this or at a bare minimum, regulated. Their unregulated conduct, lying and misrepresenting themselves and their player’s offers drives the price up for everyone. Including the donors. But hey, thanks.
Who knows anymore? Values are still being determined.
How is some NBA player worth 100 mil?
.
100% goes to the player, how the player spends it is of no consequence. Would you at some point balk that the player used the money to buy a Tesla and since you hate on Elon Musk consider that you paid money to Elon Musk?
Injured finger my A$$. Here he was sneaking off and playing for Creighton all along! Sumbich.
