6th year senior Adam Miller went out with a whimper. Zags staff lost all faith in him end of the season. I'm amazed the dude started I believe every game.

I saw every game at ASU the previous 2 seasons and not once did I believe he could make any sort of substantial impact on a good team. Hurley lost control of the program and it showed on the court.

Petro is/was a bust just I'd take him all day everyday individually as a player. I do firmly believe Petro will make an impact as a creator somewhere where he's able to get the keys. Likely not Illinois.

Adam Miller is a small SG that can't shoot and isn't a creator. When I saw the NIL $ going around about him, I literally spit out my drink. Good for him getting what the Zags overpaid for. He was a good story for a local kid but he was an average to below average college player that never got better.

Looks like 5 star Jasper Johnson also did much of nothing this season while collecting 7 figures at Kentucky

Overall, I think Brad and staff have done a tremendous job in portal and recruiting. Petro is a bust but we had the biggest bargain in college basketball with Wagler. Andrej just played a huge role in the round 2 win (my MVP for the game) and he's been much much much better than the alternatives we were sniffing around.

What numbers for Adam Miller are you talking about? You seem to be the only one who has a number.
  • Top college basketball NIL deals in 2025-26 reach millions (e.g., AJ Dybantsa at $4.2M valuation), but Miller—a journeyman with career averages around 10 PPG across Illinois, LSU, ASU, and now Gonzaga—falls well outside that tier. No sources place him in top NIL rankings or report booster/collective deals.
In short, while Miller has access to NIL opportunities (common for Power conference players, including fan-funded platforms and marketplace deals), public estimates remain vague and low-end (thousands to low tens of thousands annually at most). Exact amounts from Arizona State or Gonzaga are not reported anywhere.

I am careful about stating things that aren't fact or reported elsewhere. Hurley was @ ASU for 11 years. So either someone at Arizona State is incompetent or ASU doesn't have the resources to compete in the top half of the NCAA.

Was 100% (10-0) for the Sweet 16 in one of my IL brackets, but without some major heroics Kansas looking to end my streak. Had them over St. Johns.

Doesn't mean much - I think it was 2 years ago I had picked 7 of 8 in the Elite 8 and got not one right for the Final Four, lol.
