Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 10:37:35 AMwe have big donors, it's how we could buy out Wojo.

It's not that we have to compete with Duke, but how about Nova and Creighton?

Sure, we bought out Wojo to get Shaka, but that was before NIL (or it just started I don't recall) and now revenue sharing. It would be nice to compete against Duke and we should be competing with UCONN. Like you say if we have the donors let get those top 75 recruits and transfers or one of those international "pros".

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 09:42:12 AMConsidering what Darnold got from the Seahawks (3 years for $100 million), could the Vikings have afforded that? Though I guess the cap really doesn't matter since everyone can find a way to circumvent it.

I don't know the Vikings' financial situation. I do know that 3 years at $100 million is a bargain for a Pro Bowl QB.

OK, now I'm in. No reason that Marquette cannot compete with most high majors, especially within the BE. It is the obsession with measuring us against the wealthiest teams and a natty that annoys me.

I think the most important step would be for Shaka to drop his self-imposed rules on working with agents and his pay structure.

Thanks!

And we don't have whales on scoop. Manatees are the official big fat sea creatures on scoop.

Exactly where is Marquette going to find the whales you want? How are we going to compete with schools like Duke? I would like to hear some answers rather than hearing your questions over and over.

Quote from: WhiteTrash on Today at 10:20:19 AMIs that true? Sure seems like a lot of 'cap casualties' every year. The Chiefs and Bills have shed really good players due to the cap.

It seems they're not shedding stars, though.

JaY Bee, hard to believe I got a college degree and was a president of a multi million dollar company that I started! Guess I failed English, oh well.

Quote from: #UnleashJosh on Today at 10:09:15 AMI love that this argument continues to boil down to "well see what happens in the off season" lol

It's not an argument it's a fact. The program cannot continue on its current path.
