Re: Random NIL thoughts
I have had the same thoughts Ramulous… And combined with the fact that the $$$ is only going to the P5. (Is it the P4 yet? Soon to be the P2???) We used to be able to compete, even though we were always always always punching 15 feet above our head, with the Dukes, UConns, Oregons, Kansases, Syracu...

If this really is about name, image and likeness, why don't the players get the TV money? After all, it's their names, images and likenesses we see on the TV screen.

RIP Brad Carson
Gone too soon at age 60 in Pompano Beach, Fla.
Brad was a key player on those great Tom Ehrhardt teams, a good guy and a devoted Rhody Ram.

Re: Questions for Thorr and Stone
Who makes the decisions on amount each player gets? Couldn't Rhody15 answer this? He states that the school can not be a part of NIL. So I would think no University employee can control where the money goes. Sounds like one of those "independent-expenditure" Super PACs which aren't suppos...

Iron Dukes' half-court defense reminds me of John Chaney's -- looks like a 2-3 zone but they're guarding their men and ready to trap at the seams. VCU looks like a Baron team against a zone.
