But that is for the current guys, we need to go after 500k guys. any lawyers here that can do the paperwork for a charity?

If you have no nil money then you won’t be able to develop anyone beyond their 1st year

Is this even a pro league? Traveling mens league? If they're paid, do they use worker's comp or umbrella insurance?

You forgot to mention the ticket prices for the “pro” basketball league playing in the old roller rink?

I've outlined the strategy. We aim to secure a successful coach for $500k, and if necessary, we can engage in fundraising for additional money. However, I suggest prioritizing funding for NIL, directing the funds towards charter flights, buy games, starters, and three reserves initially. We may not necessarily require the department, as we can theoretically determine the terms for the funds raised. In the first year, our target is $4.4 million, with the goal of reducing it to $3 million to maintain a steady flow. Can we get 440 people to donate $10k each?

I don't want the year that Bonnies is having, Bonnies won't be back to the tournament unless they win A-10. St. Bonaventure has a big problem IMO. They have a small donor base and those donors are needed to focus on keeping the schools doors open. UB does not have that problem.

If you read the article, that does fall in line. I've heard San Francisco spent $1 million on NIL this year, allegedly.

I think if we have 1.4 million in NIL money, we can get almost anyone we want.

Here is the plan, what we need.... https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/candid-coaches-what-nil-price-is-a-projected-high-major-starter-in-the-transfer-looking-portal-looking-for/amp/ GH3: Buyout is probably $325,000 x 3 or 4 years = $975k Somewhere between $100,000 and $200,000 Somewhere between $200,000 and $300,000 Somewhere between $300,000 and $400,000 In my estimation, factoring in the coaches' buyout and the recruitment of six to seven individuals, we're aiming for a budget of $1.4-1.6 million. Additionally, securing buy games will require an extra half a million, and allocating funds for charter flights during non-conference and select MAC games adds another million to the equation. I propose a shift in our focus from donations to the school and construction projects towards acquiring a coach and players. If we do things correctly, we can go after Hurley when and if he gets fired in 12 months. I am ready to spearhead this effort and arrange a meeting to launch the initiative. Does anyone have contacts with high-level donors? With the necessary financial support, we can effectively oversee the department through the NIL efforts. Upon achieving a consistently sold-out Alumni Arena, the resulting revenue can be directed towards the ongoing fundraising projects. The weaponization on the NIL front is fully underway, let's start Horns United Annual Fundraising Goals 1.2-1.4 million for players annual 1 million - one time to buy out GH3 1 million for buy games (UNC, etc) annually 1 million for charter flights

You can argue the other #11 besides Turner but not modie

Bobby will be available in 12 months probably. Jim wasn’t a bad coach, people didn’t like him because he wasn’t screaming and clapping. GH3 is not good but way better than Georgia southern coach. Hes very bad imo

Yet….

We’re hitting rock bottom.

Frank is a huge Reagan gop guy

Are you eating his contract? Do you want Alnutt hiring the replacement?

Next 3-4 years will be fun to watch. At least we can sell dvd's for coaching clinics

They’ve had 63884774939384 teams since starting up in 2000. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_former_American_Basketball_Association_(2000–present)_teams https://www.si.com/longform/2015/frost-heaves/index.html

I think we’re #2 in the country with 29% production returning.

That was awful. That should be shown at every coaching clinic.

Ga southern coach is so bad, he makes GH3 look like Bobby knight. He wasted 12 seconds before he calls a time out.

Watch the last possession, no one even looks at the bench. -the strategy turned to play to win to get a 5th foul on Parker. -both teams are so poorly coached -we went for highlight reel block that ended up leading to 2pts for the other team -in my opinion, I don’t think they respect the coaches -both teams are not well coached

He’s been eating well

Was probably in the 1980s. Re: Building a new stadium in the same location, regardless of whether it has a dome, wouldn't justify the cost, as large events like the Super Bowl and Final Four would never happen. Anyone remember we hosted World University Games? The traffic was ridiculous. We don't have enough hotel rooms and the airport is not big enough. Forward thinking would be Bills/Bulls stadium project in Amhest.

Definitely needed JW’s bench to yell “defense” and wave that towel! It’s all about the jimmy’s and joes. I do agree, guys need to be engaged but that could mean lots of things. Watch a team huddle! Right about now, we could use JW over this staff. hurleys energy hasn’t helped him at Arizona st. Once he gets fired, we should go after him.

Well, he shouldn't and probably can't. I think RapidsFan has a axel to grind IMO.
