If we get some “run it back” tweets/instas from Great, Ian, etc. tomorrow I’m gonna have a massive Aggasm.

I’ll join you

Make that 3 of us

I'll make it a circle J...

We'll all come together at that moment

It’s not gay if we can get at least ten guys together and we keep our socks on.

Likely story.

I happen to know at least one of the posters on this board maraméd a pair of jean shorts and several listen to Coldplay.

Like the way Red Hot Chili Peppers band members wear their socks?

They seem like a band that would be secretly gay.

I think we may benefit from the situation we find ourselves in with a bunch of guys with 1 year of eligibility left. As has been mentioned, several of them have tranferred a few time now and really don't want to do it again. If they like each other (which seems apparent) then I can see why they would make the decision to stick together for their last year. Hopefully we can get them paid a little too for wanting to stay.

This plus the rumored retention of coaches! Oh and the fact the collective has stated that we’ll be paying around 500k for our starting 5, but who knows how much it will end up costing.

500k each?

No, Eric Laub commented that to be competitive in the conference it was about an average $100k NIL deal for a MWC level starter - meaning you would need $500k just to secure a starting 5. I think some guys are getting more and some less, it was just an average figure.

We know Ashworth was getting about $90k his last year at USU with almost no collective to speak of then. Some other articles have suggested it would take about a $1M NIL war chest to sign a full decent roster at our level.

Wow that’s a lot of money. And that’s just basketball. Throw football in and to be competitive in NIL money we need 2m-3m a year?

The lowest subscription donation for the collective is $27.20. It would only take approximately 9,200 of us to donate that a month for a year to hit that 3 mil mark. It's doable.

No I didn't.

Can we get this back on topic by saying that it would be nice if Calhoun is able to get Great to come back, but not the end of the world if he isn't.

Let's also say, there was the post in the other thread about speculation that a stipulation in his Youngstown State contract that he can't recruit kids from Youngstown State to a school he leaves for. But there is no way in hell they would be able to enforce that. That 7'3 kid he has could end up here or he could end up not. But whatever the reason is, He won't not end up here cause of something they printed in a contract they have delusions they can enforce which they can't. Rather it's cause Calhoun feels better about who we have, knows something about the kid we don't, or that kid has better offers or places he prefers to be at.

In the day in age where we lose coaches faster than players I’m all for getting a coach that can keep this team together! This year was so much fun and I really enjoyed watching this team! Man if we could get Great, Ian, Josh, Issac, Templin, and Mason back I would be over the moon excited for next year!!

How long after coach sprinkle was announced did it take before we knew osobor and brown were coming with him?

Let’s don’t get too far ahead of things. Let’s make sure Great and the rest are coming back before we actually assume they are.

Sprinkles parents knew earlier that Brown and Osobor were coming. They may again be the ones to tell people. We need a Washington spy to ask Sprinkles parents.

When was that in relation to Haslam being announced that he was joining the staff here?

I think this program just grew up this past year and showed that it's about the program, not the coach. This programs stands on its own. The environment, students, university, boosters, support staff, president, that makes a player want to stay. We will keep plugging in winning coaches. No need to follow a coach around the country to a mediocre and bland program. We will win.

Maybe I’m making too many inferences, but it really didn’t seem like Great and Sprinkle got along, all that great. I could be completely wrong but it seemed they got into a quite a few disagreements on the bench.

Add in the no show for Great in the post game presser.

Great had a comment a while back before sprinkle left saying “the transfer portal sucked, I never want to do That again”

It might be good odds Great is back.

You are on the right track here. Not the only player that Sprinkle didn't have a great relationship with. Nothing too terrible from what I have heard but the assumption they would follow Sprinkle should be entirely NIL based and not necessarily because they have close relationships.

Yup and there was an empty seat next to Sprinkle.

He also said on at least one interview that he was very mad at Sprinkle for leaving MSU. He eventually got over it, obviously, but maybe this will be similar.

Yeah, I think you guys are just searching for a reason that they didn’t get along. Maybe they didn’t, but if you watched all the pressers there was an empty seat between Sprinkle and the players at most of the press conferences

Mason also made the comment that at the beginning of last summer he was “mad” at sprinkle but later came to realize that Sprinkle was just pushing him to be better.

Just observations. So no Osobor at the final presser? Rather Martinez?
Yeah I mean I understand the desire for all to be well in Aggieland but I’d like answers from the man on that one. Did you watch the one after TCU how Great talking about the frustration of Sprinkle bailing on him the season before? Sorry to doubt that Great is just fine with Sprinkle throwing a knife into his senior season. Personally with as competitive he is and his comments about playing in front of the Hurd it’s hard to imagine he isn’t pissed off.

Be interesting to see which of the players go to the press conference that will be a good idea to see who we could expect back.

Sprinkle filling out his staff without Haslam and Calhoun’s assistant staying back as HC in YSU leads me to believe the rumors.

Although I am still nervous AF, I do think that the guys who left when Spronkle came in left pretty quickly before or immediately after he was hired.

No news seems to be good news. Hopefully we can get Mason back.

I’d feel a lot more confident about this if we got some assistant coach announcements and some “run it back” tweets….

I think Sprinkle was also trying to get Battle but could not so he brought in Osobor. That took longer. I wonder what the Washington boards are saying.
