Ref: Currently Dusty May is getting approx. $5M a year at scUM and Tommy Lloyd is getting approx. $5.5M at Arizona. Compare that to Bill Self making $8.8M at Kansas and John Calipari making $8M at Arkansas. And in case you wondered Billy Donovan is making $10M a year with the Bulls and he doesn't have to worry about recruiting, the transfer portal, and NIL money.

Just sayin': Regardless who UNC chooses both Dusty May and Tommy Lloyd will come out financial winners. UNC is probably going to have to pay their new coach the "going rate" for a top tier basketball program which will be in excess of $8M. Even if May or Lloyd don't get the UNC offer; they will have leveraged their current school for something real close.

Tommy Lloyd agrees to new 5-year deal with Arizona​

Coach Tommy Lloyd has agreed to a new deal with Arizona, he announced Friday.

"I'm staying at Arizona," he said at a Friday news conference.

Per ESPN sources, Arizona's new deal with Lloyd will make him one of the five highest-paid coaches in college basketball, as he'll start in 2026-27 at nearly $7.2 million and will average $7.5 million over the life of the deal.

The deal also includes significant bonuses and additional commitment to staff salary pool. The buyout is expected to remain significant both ways, as the deal is fully guaranteed, and the buyout to leave for another job, which was $9 million under the old deal, is expected to remain high.

Just sayin':



and just like that, Lloyd is not longer a candidate for the UNC position.

So, am I to assume that a '5*' has transferred to tOSU? Or am I a victim (once more) of 'click-bait'?

Anthony Thompson is an incoming 5* but he is coming from high school. There are no other 5* players projected on the roster as of now.

Kade Brown the first portal kid. Joins his brother at OSU...

ASTRONAUTS ARE INSIDE THE MAGNETOTAIL: Artemis II is on its way to the Moon. The crew capsule broke orbit on April 2nd, propelled by a 6-minute-long translunar injection burn. This means the crew has officially left the protection of Earth's inner magnetic field, prompting NASA to keep a very close eye on solar activity.

The crew is now inside a part of Earth's magnetosphere that humans have not visited before: the magnetotail--a comet-like extension of the our planet's magnetic field that stretches millions of kilometers:



Think of it as a windsock. The solar wind compresses and elongates our planet's magnetic field, creating a downwind tail as shown in the NASA model above.

The magnetotail is extremely dynamic. It whips back and forth in response to solar storms, providing some protection while astronauts are inside and no protection outside. During extreme storms, the magnetotail itself becomes dangerous. Magnetic fields within it can tangle and explode--a process called "magnetic reconnection." (Note: The current storm is *not* extreme. The crew is still safe.)

Every month, the Moon crosses the magnetotail for 5 or 6 days. During the crossing, which is centered on the full Moon, moondust becomes electrified and may leap off the lunar surface. There could even be a "moondust wind" near the terminator between night and day.

Artemis is heading for the Moon at exactly this time. Several Apollo missions passed close to the magnetotail, but Artemis II could be the first to spend significant time inside it. In this respect, at least, Artemis is going where no one has gone before.

After years of extensive research, I’ve come to the conclusion that not everything found on the internet is accurate.

Progress? Sure felt awful most of the spring
