Mystery solved. It’s a BS ‘valuation’ list based on 3 factors (performance, exposure and influence), but an interesting starting point for debate…

our world is in such trouble when a kid is getting paid to play college BB and his salary is based partially on his ability to INFLUENCE. Who gives a F????? It should be based on how good a dam player he is, how can his social media skills even remotely factor in. This may be the stupidest thing I have ever heard. No shot at the poster, know you are just reporting what you found.... sorry should have started with that.

The bigger the social media following, the more adverti$ing possibilities for companies.

This is NEVER how endorsements have worked. If Michael Jordan had the personality of a turd, he would never have had his own line of shoes. But he was an influential personally who millions of people followed, even before “following” was a thing.

The talented coaches weren't giving him very many minutes, so...
If you can't give Nate Oats an excuse to play you...the problem might be in the mirror.

I do seem to recall interest in him when he transferred out of TTU, but Michigan can have him.

Are you familiar with marketing? Daniel Day Lewis is a better actor than LeBron James. Should he do AT&T commercials then? Which is more likely to sell a phone?
