Transfers and NIL

[NJCat]

Interesting piece in The Athletic today about the market value for hoops transfers. According to several anonymous agents, the going rate for a starter is $200-300,000, for an all-league caliber potential player $500,000+. Boo was almost certainly a bargain last season. He left a lot on the table to stay at NU.

Men's college basketball mailbag, Part 2: How much are transfers getting paid?

With schools paying over $1 million for top hoops transfers, can mid-majors survive? And will more players pull out of the draft?

I think the numbers are way higher this year. Louisville, Arkansas, Memphis, Kentucky keep getting into bidding wars and paying unreal amounts (according to rumors anyway).

Four schools that apparently take their past basketball prowess seriously.

That was an interesting read. That's some crazy money to a kid like me. But it looks like the kind of money that might make the vast majority of players decide to play all four years before washing out of the draft. It's certainly a lot more money than you can get starting anywhere outside of the NBA (playing basketball obv.)

Reports were in the range of $250,000, which is a bargain for a unanimous first team All B1G.

Besides lottery picks you really have an incentive to stay all 4 years.

So is it not too wild to assume that our incoming transfers (Leach, Fitzmorris) got some sort of NIL deal, as well as each returning upperclassman starter? (Berry, Barnhizer, Nicholson, Martinelli)

Pretty much a certainty.
