What would a guy like Josh Dix command? Would we pay it?

 

Dix will come in here and try to take over the town

Does NIL money help first team all conference players make their free throws or stop them from late/over helping off 3pt shooters in over time with a lead? Or does it stop coaches from teaching doubling non threat posts and over rotating to non shooters to leave open shooters? Does it help put a 7’1” freak lob catch guy by the rim and not 25’ from the hoop trying to dribble?

Your point is well taken basketballjones. I agree. But I also think increased NIL would’ve given us better players, a scoring and shooting competent point guard vs Rollie and Uhlis.  Morgan is a good kid but is just not a tough rebounder. Our big men collectively this year were soft. Trade out Braxton or Morgan for a Queen or Julian Reese and our makeup of our team changes quite a bit.
