    I know he has the pedigree but the man averaged 1.9 pts and 1.9 rebs last season. I'm not sure that's worth the same money as Max Abmas.
    Just imagine what he would have averaged playing in the Summit League

      I wonder what kind of NIL offers he is receiving.

      my guess is 250-500k/yr.
      There is no way he is getting NIL offers at $250-$500k per year.

        I ‘laughed out loud’ when I read that comment… might want to let him prove himself before backing up the Brinks truck.

            just wondering out loud if he is enough better than IA to be "the guy" at PF for us.
            I’ve seen AB play the last two years, and I’m going to answer your question with a resounding YES. DC will be MUCH better than Abidde at PF for us. Abidde has been bad the past two years.

              D.C. just needs more playing time. He would be an asset as a Shocker.
              Shocker basketball will forever be my favorite team in all of sports.

                Hate to be rude but some of you are clueless when it comes to NIL funds. This kid was a projected lottery pick at one point and nothing has changed other than he had to wait his turn. If some of you knew what lower NIL guys but still good players like Pohto were being offered you would be less ignorant.

                  Any insights on what Pohto is doing? Seems to be a mystery to all of us.

                      And we will continue to discuss NIL from a position of relative ignorance until someone in the know is willing to give specifics. Yeah, we hear about so-and-so getting offered $400k and car, but those aren't relevant to WSU until there's reliable info otherwise.

                      You seem to be in the know, and that's fine. But if you're just going to dump on people without providing numbers, you aren't being the least bit helpful.

                        Violates trust to provide numbers.

                        No issue with ignorance by itself ; when said ignorance uses it to give someone a hard time ; a dumping is in order. I

                          NIL shopping / floating WSU high values that may or may not be truthful.

                                Why would the great majority be expected to have a clue? It's not exactly a transparent process. About the only thing I am aware of that has been stated publicly, and I assume the majority are in the same boat, was that Armchair Strategies had a "war" chest of $500,000 and even that pronouncement was extremely shy on details. There might be 5 posters here, and that may be generous, that have access to inside information. So I think most of the comments are coming from that perspective. What kind of deals might be flowing through Opendorse and direct deals between a business and a players is pretty much unknowable without inside information as far as I can tell. At least at this point in time. If you have access to information that the rest of don't, or others do and they choose to keep it under the radar, that's fine and dandy. I assume that will come out eventually although I don't know that there are any requirements to make those deals public.
