By 2023, NIL may be a full go. I'd rather capitalize on my NIL at Oregon on Phil Knight's dollar than disappear in the development league
Depends on the kids priorities. If his main one is actual basketball development rather than developing his brand then the G League does make a lot of sense.
 
In order from most likely to least likely to land
1. Tyler Nickel
2. Dasonte Bowen
3. Riley Mulvey
4. Demarion Watson
5. Will Shaver
6. Tarris Reed
7. Tre Holloman
8. Isaac Traudt

Nickel and Bowen are both 4 stars according to 247 along with being top 100 players. Mulvey is a 3 star center, but I think he’s going to end up more of a 4 in college, similar to Nunge. Watson is a 4 star and top 110 player, who has offers from Iowa, ISU, Florida, Creighton, Marquette, Mizzou, Minnesota, and Nebraska. Shaver is a 4 star, and is going to be a tough pull for us, but he’s a big fan of Luka Garza and the way Iowa plays. Reed is also a 4 star, and is currently a K-state lean but Iowa is definitely high on his list. Holloman has some big time offers, and it will be a battle the whole way through. Traudt is likely a Creighton guy.

Good call @ClockHawk69
 
I turned on KXNO at the tail end of some stupid Hawkeye talk and our buddy Chad was talking. I literally caught two minutes and these were his honest to God talking points.

1. Iowa baseball was a regional team and got screwed by the big10 schedulers.
2. He (an "objective" journalist) felt bad for the Iowa baseball team.
3. Keegan Murray 2022 first round NBA draft talk.
4. Wetting himself over how great Murray was against Duke errr I mean Grand Canyon.

The amount of potential first round picks (according to fans) that have been there over the last 30 years is very impressive.

When you look at what actually happened it's a little different but who pays attention to that part?

I think Keegan best days are ahead of him and it won’t be at iowa much longer..

he’s got that body type nba loves.. but he has to shoot much better from 3 and you look at his frosh year and almost all of his points scored are off tip ins or dunks..

I haven’t seen Keegan just take his man off dribble and blow by someone yet. If he didn’t have great length in the arms he’d be at iowa all 4 years and maybe make a G league team IMO..

Wts he does have the length and we will see if his quickness and foot speed improve to get him more nba talk..

Yeah he definitely has certain measurables that the NBA loves but it will be interesting to see how this year goes for him when he's the focus point of the offense.
