At this point, Holland could be the odd man out in the rotation. Jenkins, Stew, Robinson, LeVert will be the first 4 off the bench when they are healthy. If JB goes 10 deep, #10 would probably be a coin flip between Green and Holland.

OSU could get that money in a super league, probably even more. The fact they are willing to give up 10 more years on GoR should show you they don't want anything to do with a super league. Right now, the only school with the power and influence they enjoy in their conference is Michigan. A super league would erode their power base by quite a large margin.

Irrelevant when they spend it. And I want them spending it on better players and coaches. There isn't a faster way to increase revenue for a CFB program than investing in better talent. Better talent usually creates a better product (Not always) and a better product creates demand, and demand is king. Demand lets me charge $20 more a ticket, $10 more for parking, $2 more per beer, $1 more per hot-dog, etc. Now your stadium is at capacity, maybe we need another 10,000 seats added on in the south end zone. So on and so on. I realize it's easy to say, just spend more on players/coaches and then start backing up revenue dump trucks. I understand it will still take a lot of smart people to come up with and execute a plan to make that money work. I also understand not all 18 schools will be able to do it. I don't care. If we wait around for a plan that all 18 schools can implement successfully, we will never have a plan. No, these are not payday loans. A payday loan starts the same as any loan. They give you money today, and you give them some of your future revenue. What makes a payday loan bad is the 300%, 400%, 500% interest they are going to charge you. At a 3.5% interest rate, these are the furthest thing from payday loans. I doubt the Big Ten could approach a commercial bank and get a 3.5% loan. Having said that, I still wouldn't make the deal. But the money side of things isn't nearly as bad as people want to make it out to be.

$350m repaid on $190m borrowed over 20 years is about a 3.5% loan. How bad/good the deal is depends on what type of ROI you think you can get on the $190m infusion. If you think you can earn >=6% welllllll

Another blah game from Holland. Cade with a couple of key hoops down the stretch to ice it. Thompson was big on defense at the end
-
Thompson with two steals and a block the last two minutes
-
Here is how I would judge the deal. You receive $190 million and if revenue grows at 2% a year for the next 20 years, you give up over $350,000,000 in future revenue. At 4% growth, it's $439 million. 6% growth, it's just over $550 million. No thanks.

Hawks are in a similar situation as the Pistons. They have three starters out .
-
The Hawks not having red in their uniform is just wrong.

Castle out for two weeks. San Antonio now missing Victor, Harper, and Castle.
-
Now Gianni's is out and will be evaluated in two weeks.

And now we know why USC was not on board. https://x.com/tonypaul1984/status/1990516355913937366

Cade, Tobias, and Ausar all listed as questionable. LeVert out. Risacher, KP, and Okongwu listed as questionable for Atlanta.
-
Crazy to think about how little Ivey and Cade have played together in a little over 2 seasons. Ivey's rookie year Cade played 12 games and had season ending surgery. Last year Ivey played 30 games and had a season ending injury. So 42 total games, assuming each one played in those 42. Not going to go back and count that. But basically half a season.

But wait. PBev's lawyer said he was just protecting his sister from a predatory 18 year old? Jesus christ. This is so brutal you almost hope she is a liar. Patrick Beverley Accused of Choking, Punching Sister In Eye ... Before Assault Arrest

Home court doesn't mean much. I just looked back at the last 3 finals. A 4th, 5th, and 7th seed made it to the finals. Those 3 teams had 12 series and only one was a home series. The home team did win each Finals though.

It wasn't total loss, it was a line item. Looks like I also had the number a bit off. https://mgoblue.com/news/2025/6/12/general-michigan-athletics-projects-balanced-budget-for-fiscal-year-2026

I found an article that says the conference shares 35% of the gate for conference games. But it has a cap of $1 million and a floor of $300,000. It's from 2013 so who knows if that is still true or not. Michigan is projected to lose $19.7 million this year due to having two less home games. So you can estimate they make about $10 million per home game or $80 million in a normal 8 home game schedule.

He is having a year.
