Blum at Iowa State has said the exact opposite. So I guess somebody is just flat wrong or lying.
I think this is a valid point. It's a bubble, like the housing market, tech stocks. I still maintain that this annual dump of money from individuals (large and small) and companies is not sustainable for most schools. Individuals payments can flex from year to year based on a multitude of factors and businesses, even those run by avid alums, will measure what are they really getting out of their "donations". It's sort of working now, but will it still be in 2-5 years from now? I have my doubts, except for a select few schools who have the donor base willing to keep paying (in part because they've been doing it for so long, just in a more covert manner).
Well as long as the fans are good with the performance of Iowa athletics and the donors are doing their thing it won't change. We seem to be fine with this level and not really be serious about trying to hit the next level.
What happens when they start getting fired for "non performance"? As we've talked about before thats the flip side of that coin for the players, and they'd want no part of that side....
Yep, thats what I was talking about earlier. Big money is going to want ROI, and very few will be able to justify or even measure that to any real extent.
That's why these NIL deals need to be incentive based, much like coaches. Give X $ for x number of wins. NCAA appearances. Pay the entire teams for wins, players for rebounds, etc. I wouldn't pay for player points per game, this would create selfish gunners. More $ for staying X years & graduating. Gotta be some way to make these incentive based & keep this from a merry-go-round of transfers.
How much $$$ do you think #22 took from the UIowa NIL? I’m thinking -0-…Stars are getting their money from folks not even connected to their schools…Maybe I’m all wrong here..
I think what proctor did is the tip of the ice berg in an athlete screwing a school out of $. We kind of saw it with qb who backed out of FL commit cause what he was promised wasn’t delivered in NIL. There will be more ugly situations when one of these 5* guys gets hurt doesn’t live up to the hype and some schools or donors tries to short them or cut them loose. And think you maybe right where school get burned too often try to incorporate incentive based. Which will only lead to more ugly situations where player just misses a mark cause coach pulls him in a blowout at the end of the year or something like that.
I think this is probably correct but Fandom is an irrational thing.
Will be interesting to see if/ when the bubble bursts.
That basically already happens. If players cannot get playing time at a bigger school, they go to a smaller school. What do you think the big difference would be?
Professional players often make more than coaches. You said you don’t think any player other than Caitlin Clark is worth $400k. That is categorically false.
Lots of people (including myself) thought TP wasn’t fully invested in this team the last couple of games of the season.
If it’s true that he had reps telling Fran he was gone before the B10 tourney even started then that’s a pretty bad look.
I'm assuming that means reps of players from other teams but I could be wrong.
Yes, I agree. I doubt any player agents are comprimising the players they rep. What's the upside?
I think an agent would compromise his own grandmother if he thought it would benefit him.
