  • I wouldn't blame McBride for looking for a payday. It's not like he's a sure fire NBA fixture guaranteed millions out of the gate. He's in his final year of college ball and might as well get what he can, while he can.

    • Shocktown, nothing about McBride came up. Mills did say he wants to sign 2 guards, 1 being a PG, a big to help QB and the best available. Repeated a few times growing the NIL war chest is paramount to getting good players. He did say Johnell Davis from FAU somehow reached out to Mills yesterday saying he would play for WSU if we would get him $1.2 Million in NIL bucks. Guess what; he won’t be a Shocker.

            I didn't hear any names regarding the player wanting a specific amount. What time during the interview was it?

              I think he's referencing the dinner they had last night.

                Ah gotcha. I was gonna say...just re-listened to the interview and no names were mentioned lol.

                OK, my bad. I missed that that was what he was referencing.

                Thank you

                Here is the interview I was mentioning.

                  I watched this after seeing your original comment.

                  Honestly this sounds like the same situation. To me, this sounds like McBride and Davis. McBride, who he makes a comment about knowing what other schools are offering, seems to be the one that he "gravitated towards", hence the offer/visit. It would also make sense that McBride is a bit more open with Mills about what other offers he's receiving considering their past relationship.

                  • When are we AT LEAST going to see some offers? Aim high for four stars now or a three you really feel good about but let's see some activity on guys PM would like to have.

                        We aren't. We should know by now that isn't how Mills operates unfortunately

                          I'm expecting the four new players will be revealed during Shocker Madness at this point.

                            Do we actually see true offers with the transfer portal? I know we see offers regarding initial recruiting as a HS or juco athlete, but is there any similar posting about portal transfers?

                              Well...no...not that I know of. But we likely won't hear anything at all until it happens. Like someone said....we will probably find out at Shocker Madness lol

                              • Back in the day, there was a governing body called the NCAA, who created and enforced rules for the colleges and athletes. One of those rules did not allow a coach or school representative to comment on potential recruits until they received a letter of intent.
                                Does that NCAA organization exist these days, or is it all on the courts to establish rules? And is that old rule concerning recruits still in effect?
                                Maybe if we took Mills to court, they would rule in our favor and demand total transparency on everything recruiting. After all, it is causing quite a bit of mental distress amongst the fan base, for which they perform for.
