    I’ll take the ads word for it. you think Louisville basketball spends more money on bb than football? Really? Simply preposterous thinking. Shough was more than a million on his own, and then they had about fifty more guys to pay including two nfl wide receivers. Don’t get me wrong they care about their bb down here but give me a break. Kelsey just got an extension… everyone was thinking it would be in the five million range. It ended up being just a little over 3. If Louisville bb was throwing money around last year , they would have gotten a better roster than they had. 3 c of c guys, two guys coming off injury that weren’t paid, waterman who is jag, ill give ya Hepburn and maybe even Edwards. 2025 is much different, you can simply tell by the roster differences.

    Good grief, you're still hanging onto that fabrication? OMG! The Louisville AD has never said anything to you about NIL. It's total fiction. Admit it!

    I'm pretty sure - like 100% - that CBS knows more about the situation than you. Please, stop with the charade.
    When they say, “We must protect our democracy,” switch the word “democracy” to “bureaucracy”, and it will all make sense.

    No one cares what you think. Take Brew and several others’ advice here and just stop. You’re nothing but a bot. Probably just like real life.

    The cbs poll lol. Do you even have a clue what that poll was? Who was polled? Yes let’s believe that Louisville spent more than the team with the #1 class in the country including three probable lottery picks, one of them the #1 pick, a 6’6 pg that could have gone anywhere. How stupid are you?

    How much did Florida spend?

    Please, don't try to obfuscate results and rankings with dollars spent. All you're doing is inferring. Plain and simple, and mixing in a little insinuation that the Lou AD whispered the number in your ear. You're not fooling anyone....

    Lol you’re a fucking idiot. How much did the now #2 recruit get from byu this year? You’re way out of your lane here, you don’t know shit from piss.

    Jealousy doesn’t suit you.

    May want to read my post again, I did not say they spend more on football, I said their collective donations for basketball are higher than they are for football. Most of what I have stated is info that is readily available from numerous sources publicly. Unless you are donating big time to the program, any AD with half a brain is not giving Dad’s at their kid’s schools inside info.

    If it’s so inside, then how does everyone know about what Xavier’s nil is? Everyone knows what kids are getting. It’s not really that inside. Not like he was like here, this is what we paid Reyne on a monthly basis. look at these 502 circle books lol. I asked what the number was and it was offered. It’s really not a big deal.


    If you don’t believe me, I really don’t give two shits. All you have to do is look at their roster and know there is zero chance they were top ten in nil this year. Even at 10 mil this year, they may not be. Have a good night.
