2025-2026 College Basketball General Discussion

Ed Cooley. Is it bad when your coach has to deflect to global chaos instead of running a middling basketball program? :lol:

He’s not wrong. It’s just sports but that’s hilarious. You’re not paid to worry about those other problems, my guy.

Blessed to be 1-6.
Thank God, we're blessed that Ed Cooley isn't the coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes. After all, he was on the short list of candidates at one point.

Look Who's Transferring Now (The Portal)

The volume of kids who hit the portal this year almost had to result in this. Who knows if what we saw this year will become the new norm, but I suspect that it likely will settle down quite a bit after this round of musical chairs doesn’t end well for a lot of kids.

It’s hard to put any of this on the kids themselves. Ultimately they do have a choice so, yeah… they get some of the blame here. That said, I suspect that a LOT of very bad advice that was hardly given in service of these kids has lead them to where they are.

Pro tip. If you go into the portal, you best have a new home already secured. If you don’t, you darn well better be the bell of the ball, otherwise… FAFO.

2024 tOSU Recruiting Discussion

Texas Tech, JMU, Bama, UGA, aTm are the only teams in the CFP with QBs they recruited.
Unfortunately many of the NIL numbers aren't made public, so its hard to compare numbers unless the player, their agent or someone associated with them releases that info. Hence why I have yet to see how much Sayin is earning or negotiating, or how much JJ makes(the rumor is he's up to $7mil for next season). This is all a weird area we're in, in CFB. We know some salaries, but not all. So its kind of like a professional level, but still some numbers are shrouded in secrecy, my guess is because there isn't enough interest in those particular players.
Whatever JJ is making, its not enough.
