i would be ecstatic if someone on this message board became a billionaire (except if it was the Rutgers fan or UCONN fan).
Maybe the crowdstrike guy can address the business school and the athletic dept at SHU. If the BOR scoffed at the presentation on NIL that is really bad. Do they feel the same way about cloud computing, social media, cyber security and AI? Hank said the BOR did it's due dilligence on MsgrReilly though.
So if we spend more $ next year, we have to win a NCAA game for it to be money well spent? Getting huge crowds, coverage, some level of success on the court and the like wouldn't be worth it?
its just Billionaire vs Billionaire in the end. if you dont have a billionaire that cares, then you're out
The most interesting part of all of this will be the Russian roulette of the NCAAT
Will guys want to keep pouring money into a team to be beat by let’s say Wichita in a random R32 game
That will be interesting

If we are getting 8-10 k in the stands but lose in the 2nd round I can accept that. If we get that many people it usually means aw are playing well. I bet one of theee big time program with all the money will lose in the first or 2nd round this year.
Of course they will. It happened last year. And back when teams were paying kids under the table -- as we were, and everyone else was -- you saw plenty of situations in which mid-majors upset high majors. Other high majors with less resources upset high majors with more resources. It's an absolutely wild take but par for the course.
I'll up the ante one. There is no reason we should be limited to 8-10K. Let's put on big boy pants and be positioned where we can open the upper bowl and try to get 10K+ at every home game against conference opponents or high majors.
We've already established that going one and done in the NCAA isn't enough here. Two of our last three coaches left after an NCAA season and few lamented their departures.
The last guy made five of six (six of seven) tournaments but only won one game so that was deemed to be his ceiling.
If Sha gets to the point where we're making NCAAs most year but he isn't winning games, the same issues will eventually crop up.
Yes. But with most of those teams it wasn’t’ considered an outright failure or all for naught It depended on the year but most of the time I think 65-75% of the board was happy with making the dance and the rest so long as we won a game. Only 19-20 was probably different because of expectations and what we had with that group.
