I’d give a lot to take Williamson’s, Bristow’s, and TBB’s to get Lendeborg who was literally playing in the state of AL last year. We’d be a 2 seed with a legit NC shot and Mich would probably be a 3 seed with minimal chance. There are examples of large $ rosters flopping, but Mich and AZ are both high $ rosters.


I think it was bigger than NiL. Yaxel wanted to be a 2/3, I bet we wanted him to play at the 4 because we had Allen, Bethea...etc

Think he chose Michigan because they had the size to allow him to play where he wanted.

Kind of a moot point without knowing exactly what any player anywhere is making.

However, I'd guess that we have a solid NIL budget but not the kind where we could say pay 1 player triple what the rest of the roster gets and then have the funds to also raise returning starters like Philon, Sherrell etc.

I promoted rock shows for years. It's one thing to have 2 bands agreed and add 3 more that make less money. If you add one that the others don't see as that much bigger than them you can't pay them more without nogotiating with all of the rest again.

If we don’t have the money to get guys like him and proven upperclassmen that can shine in March, we’re not winning a NC under Oats. If there are 15-20 teams with more money, at least one of them is going to be better every single year. E8 or a surprise F4 run will be our ceiling.

That’s better than we’ve ever had so I won’t complain a lot, but we probably need to temper our hopes of bringing home the ultimate prize under Oats.
