Was told that after tonight's press conference, John Calipari is meeting with high-level donors to talk NIL, etc. Waltons and Tysons are expected to be there.

This is proof that the coach really matters. If we fired bitch tits and picked up a legit coach you’d see a huge uptick on NIL

The right coach would have to be their pick or a guy they can get on board with.

NWA money equals Gus?

Surprised Waltons coming. They've been pouting (and holding off on their giving) ever since their choice for Chancellor didn't get selected. Maybe that's going to come to an end.

No. He refuses to use the transfer portal and will never be good anymore. Same with Cal though, so who knows what else could just light some money on fire.

Chancellor fight is old news. Waltons were engaged in this search and offered to pony up NIL for other potential hires

He is trying to cash in on the excitement buy getting donations to the collective.

Coming out and saying we have double the budget of Kansas for this year doesn't bring in $25 donations to the collective.

More interesting was putting off facilities for NIL comment.

Sounds to me like they're trying to encourage more grassroots giving to NIL, akin to Ole Miss' efforts. Just speculating.

They mentioned Tyson and Warren Stephens helped get Cal. I'm sure with him being there as well, that he (Warren) will be in the meeting too.

After Tyson got his standing ovation he probably got jacked up and wrote another NIL check.
