UBinMD Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 (edited) Looks like this 3 star, 6'7" SF from Amarillo, TX is visiting Buffalo today. Could be a nice get.

MuchMany Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Awesome that he's visiting. I thought he was going to float up the rankings past us. PS there's a thread on him on the second page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah, it's not like this is a particularly active set of threads. Thanks for digging up the news! Would have been nice to get Hausen on campus for a football game, but at least there will be students here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocCas86 Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Three visits down, one more to Colorado St. For what it is worth he looks happiest in pics during UB visit (at least if you ask me). It would be great to get a commit next month. Fingers crossed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BasketBull Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I can’t be the only person feeling very discouraged by the failure to land targets? By all means I know they haven’t played a game but seeing them losing recruiting battles against lesser mid-majors is disheartening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hausen is the only guy that I was actually excited about, but it's hard to have any idea what these kids are at this level with such little coverage of them. We only have a few spots to fill for next year, I think we'll be ok between the portal and recruiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Boals and Groce both had sub .500 first years in the MAC and went on to be top MAC coaches, gives me some perspective on the upcoming season. Got to give Halcovage some time.

DaBulls99 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) It’s all about pay for play now. Even small programs have collectives to pay the players. Sucks, but either we step up or we get used to it. Akron is paying multiple guys six figures. Edited October 11, 2023 by DaBulls99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was curious where you got information. All I could find was on3.com top 100 list for basketball. Lowest amount on the list was $73K and there were no MAC players in top 100. I am not challenging your numbers, but question driven by curiosity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaBulls99 Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Brother-in-law is a donor to the collective at Akron. I’m guessing On3 doesn’t have access to much of any deals with collectives as there is no transparency in that. Nobody has to report anything. All he’d share is there are 2 guys getting > 6 figures. What that means or how much he wouldn’t go into detail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What that means or how much he wouldn’t go into detail. I am gonna guess that Kaulig has put money towards this as well. He was a former Zip QB so the sport connection is deep. As we all know, it is much easier to make an impact in basketball since there are fewer players. Also, unlike football, Akron basketball isn’t a joke. I know the UB Development Division had their best year ever last year, but I don’t think they are as focused on NIL or athletic collectives as they are with other items. We need some very successful UB alumni who have a lot of money (from business) AND a strong connection with athletics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
