NBA Draft: Underclassmen are returning to college in record numbers – Jeff Eisenberg, Yahoo! Sports – April 29, 2025

JT Toppin, a second-team All-American and the reigning Big 12 player of the year, announced earlier this month that he intends to return to the Red Raiders for his junior season. The 6-foot-9 forward is expected to make about $4 million in NIL earnings at Texas Tech next season – a sum that exceeds the 2025-26 rookie salary scale for all but the NBA's top 17 draft picks.

The skyrocketing NIL market for proven talent across college basketball has made decisions like Toppin's more and more common this draft cycle. Jeff Goodman reported earlier this month that as many as 15 teams will have $10 million rosters next season. Those in the NIL space who have spoken to Yahoo Sports say that it will take up to $6-8 million just to be competitive in a power conference.

We are so thankful you are here.

Do you do this on every college basketball forum? It's honestly weird as hell. And makes the Dayton fanbase look absurd.

How's the Cavalier running these days? Those old Chevys can be pretty reliable if properly maintained.

And makes the Dayton fanbase look absurd.

Of the three of four Dayton posters we've had here this is still a distant second. And he is pretty freaking weird.

I've seen a lot of your posts on two forums. Selectively well researched sure, but knowledgeable they are not. More like choosing a point you wish was true and then finding 30 sources to use as an appeal to authority but forgetting to vet them. I'd say it's closer to trolling than "imparting knowledge" unless you were taught in a school for Russian social media bots.

He needs to work in some updates in his posts about Cavalier maintenance and some tips and tricks to keep your '01 Chevy on the road. Since he's here to educate, let's expand the scope a bit beyond just hoops.

No one asked.

Anyone see Trump is considering signing an executive order to limit NIL after speaking with Nick Saban?

I'm sure it will be well thought out and not cause any additional confusion.

I saw that in an article.  My thought - huh Nick Saban wants to level the playing field...probably just like when he was coaching where Alabama could pay players while others couldn't.

It sounds like it would just be some kind of generic order.  Either way, it wouldn't hold up in court.

People say it will be the best solution ever to yet another horrible situation created by Sleepy Joe.

He is tanking the value of the dollar so he doesn't have to limit NIL spending.

Genius

An executive order on NIL will include a discussion of the person issuing it and his track record.

Sadly, the people in charge of college athletics failed miserably and are looking for a solution.  This solution will almost certainly be illegal, shortsighted and create more problems than it solves.

That's almost certainly the point of such an exercise.

Heard Nick Saban talk on ESPN months ago saying something like there are going to be boosters out there not too happy when they donate a half million and the player does not produce and or leaves the next year.

Can't have a decent political conversation around here any more without the dentists.

[tower912]

Can't have a political discussion because the moderators don't feel like putting up with it.  Which is their right.
