Trilly Donovan has predicted Acaden Lewis to commit to UK!

I don't get too excited over these predictions but it's certainly nice to see them predicting us instead of someone else.
 
There has to be another source of NIL income. So, how do you come up with that many millions every year?

Car wash!

Still can’t believe Kevin Knox Isn’t atleast a good bench piece in the league
 
Man…..I’m not seeing much of a dip in recruiting. Every thumper on this board was saying kiss the top classes goodbye.

If Caleb Wilson comes also, what did we ever really need Cal for?
If Pope keeps bringing them in, the Nate Oats, etc crew will have to find a new “I told ya so” sticht. So glad we hired my number 1 choice!!
 
Is Lewis supposed to announce soon?
Before this most recent surge in momentum, there had been stories where him/his camp said they’d like to decide by early November.

I think the thought was he’d visit his final 4 again(just visited UConn) and then do it. I think someone said something about him potentially now not taking all the visits. Someone correct me if I’m wrong as I’m just reading people retell things from sources like Trilly/Graf/etc.


According to the above report, JJ and Malachi look to potentially be at team USA during BBM. Acaden’s name isn’t on there. So I think it’s fair to think he’ll be coming in for BBM potentially, though nothing’s been announced.
 
I'm surmised that our budget is in the $5 to $6 million range. Barnhart said two boosters pledged $4 million combined. Club Blue is now in excess to $1 million (and counting). So, is it a safe assumption that BBN could scrounge up $1 million more? I'd say so. That's $6 million, and that's a pretty conservative estimate.

$1.3 million for Jasper.
Probably the same for Wilson. That's half the budget.

Then the other 10 guys divide the last $3 million or so.

I'm a guessing a guy like Williams goes for $300,000 to $400,000 or so. A guy like Chandler probably $100,000.
Don’t know how many went to college but this would apply to all of us around that time in our lives but…can you imagine having that kind of money at around 18/19 or so? Actually most can’t imagine having that kind of money ever.

Impressive list. Less impressive being the hardware obtained from that list. But we all know that and it’s time to look to the future.
