If in 12 years on the internet the publication you're citing has amassed a following of fewer than 4k followers on twitter/X, you might consider trying to find a second source for verification.

So the accuracy of information is based on how many X followers has has? It wouldn't matter if he had no X followers. Do your own homework. All of the team NIL estimates and gross Men's Basketball revenue are publicly available. Go research it yourself.

Just because numbers that are published don't meet your approval doesn't mean they are wrong.

Duke Linked to Transfer Guard John Blackwell After Elite Eight Exit

It was a disappointing ending after not only being crowned the ACC regular-season champion but also winning the conference tournament. Now, into the offseason, head coach Jon Scheyer and his staff have turned their attention toward the transfer portal. On3's Joe Tipton lists Duke as one team...

I recommend the latest NBA mock drafts for casual reading. He's top 20 in every one of them....as high as 14. He's gone.

I think he'd be wrong to go pro. He's only 6'9" with zero outside game as of right now. He is way more valuable in college than in the pros, so why not mature in college where you're one of the top dogs? A high motor only gets you so far, you gotta have some type of skills as well. He would get eaten alive in the NBA right now. College is where he belongs. I think those rankings are ridiculous. We'll see come draft time. I think he'll fall to mid-late 2nd round.

This is no shade on TSJ (I actually think he was marginally a better player), but it’s going to be harder TO REPLACE Keaton than it was Shannon.

Just because of the on-ball productivity. VERY hard to find a player that’s as good a scorer AND decision-maker. Why he’s a top 6 pick.

Based upon watching a ton of 2025-26 in-season games, I happen to think Glynn's kid is better than KW........

Off topic question: but has anyone else been experiencing problems with Loyalty on mobile when someone posts a Twitter link? Like the screen freezes over the post and you can't scroll up or down? It's been happening to me for a few months now.

I might be over thinking it…but in my opinion, the fact that nobody immediately jumped ship as soon as the portal opened this years speaks to the great culture of this years team

Nobody dying to leave or make it about themselves

I agree with that for most guys, but there have got to be some players Brad would tell straight up, "thanks and best of luck." (Not to pick on him, but Petrovic comes to mind.) The fact we haven't even heard that makes me wonder what's going on behind the scenes.
