That’s from the school. The system can’t stop Pizza Hut or Papa John’s from paying a player $30 million if they choose. And the schools getting those gigs for the players will rule.
And What’s The Solution

I think as others have said - forget this season. I mean, do what you can to develop the players you think will stay, but I'm guessing most of the decent players will bolt.
I still think spreading the NIL across 3-4 super solid players is a better approach, the rest are depth / rotational players ranked based on skill and ability to integrate into the system. Play a starting 5 + 2 rotational off the bench. The rest are garbage time players.
Does that make us elite? No, but it gives us at least a puncher's chance to be in the top quarter of the Big East and possibly make the NCAA tournament.

The first and most important element in any venture is the quality of its leadership followed closely by having the resources to implement your strategic plan . The question I keep asking is whether we have the right person running our athletic program and how do we build our resources to fund our athletic efforts, especially basketball. Until we answer those questions we’ll remain mired where we are now
This is fantastic circular corporate-speak. Most people didn't care much for Larry Keating, but it's hard to argue with his success as the "CEO" of the athletic department during his tenure. Was he a genius, or just surrounded with the right people, at the right place and time?
And who hired those people who were a significant part of Larry’s success and who got the best out of his.

I certainly don't take any credit away from him. I'm not sure whether this seasons on-court failings go all the way to Felt, and not sure how to objectively measure that, anyway.
Agree with you on that the same way I wish I had the ability to see an objective view of how our assistants are performing in player development and recruiting.
Someone claiming to know a "D-1 assistant" that opined that Holloway was the right choice but wrong guy might have some insight on our staff.
