If we can get Kalk we’ll forget Onyenso exists by the end of the day.We out on Onyenso?

I tell my wife this all the timeOur NIL pool appears to be well above average.
Hmmmm…he’s from Brooklyn.
Look at his assists. Also, look at his number of 3 pt attempts. Low sample size as he's not a big 3 pt shooter. All of his other numbers are great.3 TO/ game on 27% 3pt? We can do better….
We might have the money for what we have jotted down or have initial feelers about their prices being. We do not have enough for all three of where the bidding will end up on the open market, because every apex NIL shark will dig deeper than what is perceived to be out there to land those players. It's total Dutch Tulip Craze panic mode out there. That's not some worry about the future, everyone already knows it to be true, you've posted this yourself.That's not what you said ... You said we don't have the money ... I'm saying we do ...
I wouldn't bet the farm on us getting all 3 of those guys obviously ...
But even landing 2 ? That's quite the accomplishment ... And we have the resources to get 3 of those "kind of guys" ...
Rumors that he's been a St. Johns lean for a while now.Hmmmm…he’s from Brooklyn.
I know Orlando Antigua ...
Lacking in defense....and rebounding...Top 5? That is no. 1.
Kalk would be more impactful to winning than Holmes or Onyenso, and I don’t think it’d be closeDef. like Holmes > Kalk but that'd probably be a little too pricey. In that case, Kalk is more than just a reasonable consolation. Indy, is it possible we can get both one of Kalk or Holmes and Onyenso as well? Really like Onyenso's potential.
Except it's not "our" money, or the athletic departments money, or taxpayer money - it's donor money. If they want to go crazy and spend their money to land the biggest fish, then more power to them (and us!). If they have full faith and confidence in Brad and Co to finally win us a Natty with the right players, then there's really nothing to stop them. It's basically what Miznoz seems to be doing in football: buy all the best players (money be damned!) in order to win right stat now, by God!We might have the money for what we have jotted down or have initial feelers about their prices being.

Lock down Onyenso, today (accepting for the sake of the hypothetical that it's possible). Do not wait for Kalk, who is just Beanpole Storr, he just wants top dollar and that won't be us when the music stops.
This isn't sports, this is simple economics. We have the resources to win this game, but only if our strategy is correct. If we start hitting on 17 against a low dealer card we're going to get ourselves killed out there.
after Indiana and maybe NebraskaOurs is at the top of the Big Ten is my understanding.
Now Kylan, Kadary, Jones, Hum, Kalk ...
What do we think ...
Goode didnt ever play the 2 and Humrichous isn't a 2 either - im confused?
I seem to like Cliff a lot more than most on here. Thought he'd be highly sought after.Nah ... We are involved ...
I do think it's likely one of him or Big Cliff winds up at Bama ...
Mizzou isn't buying all of the best players, they are buying an unusual number of relatively strong players relative to the historic standing and general fanbase size of that program.It's basically what Miznoz seems to be doing in football: buy all the best players (money be damned!) in order to win right stat now, by God!
Sorry but ever since this name was first mentioned I can only picture the original WoogieWooga
There have been MULTIPLE reports here that our NIL is pushing top 10 nationally and either #1 or #2 in the Big Ten ... no need for the "woe is us" in this regard, we are VERY well positioned for NIL.There were rumors that if Coleman or Domask were to come back, we had donors outside of NIL to foot the bill?! Why don't these guys step up to help land players we need through the NIL system? I'm surprised that our basketball NIL pool is very average? We have a huge alumni association.

Others already mentioned his assists and high 3pt% before this year, but he also averaged 2.2 steals, so he had fewer "turnovers minus steals per 100 possessions" than TSJ or Domask. Plus high rebounding %s for his size/pos and some blocks, so he's still valuable even if his 3pt% isn't much better (though his high FT% is one more reason to think this year's 3pt% was an outlier).3 TO/ game on 27% 3pt? We can do better….
