I love the idea of this store, but I would be shocked if any of our players made any more than a few hundred dollars off of this stuff. I would get guess that if a shirt costs $40, the player is getting $5 - $10 per sale. Also, none of this is being held in stock. The way it works nowadays, the company makes a shirt only after someone orders it. Let's say one of our player sells 60 shirts (which seems like a lot) and makes $7 per shirt. Congratulations kid, you just earned $420 before taxes. Given the tax bracket some of them will be in given their NIL payments, that means they will probably clear about $250. Doesn't seem all that worth it for someone making six figures on an NIL deal.

Rivals has 180 also. ESPN has him at 190.

Wyoming took a write up they did on their website down, but part of it was still accessible on a google search: He averaged over 18 points and nearly 10 rebounds during the state tournament for his career. He was named All-State by the Oklahoman. He averaged over 20 points per game as a sophomore and as a junior scored 15.1 points and added 8.4 rebounds per game.

According to 247 Sports, he is 6'5" and 180 pounds. We need to get the strength and conditioning coach working with him immediately.

Well if that's the case, then cool.

I hope that no kids get the misimpression that Jordan, Yuri, and TJ will be there.

Question for everyone: Is next season's Billiken team the same, worse or better than last year's ISU team? Please give reasons for you answer. At this point, I'm not sure we are better than last year's ISU team on paper. The only way we would be better is if the guys we kept and the guys we brought in perform better than they did last year now that they are in Schertz's system.

Jordan Goodwin signs 2 way contract with Lakers
cgeldmacher replied to thetorch's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
I get what you are saying, but those guys were all really good the year before they were coached by Vogel. Then, under Vogel they all had a bad year. Doesn't take much to conclude A+B=C. -
WELCOME HEAD COACH JOSH SCHERTZ!!
cgeldmacher replied to DeSmetBilliken's topic in Billikens.com Main Board
Schertz jumped from his prior school to ISU, and three years later jumped for ISU to SLU. I'm willing to bet that when he was hired at ISU, he did a radio interview with someone in Terre Haute and said something to the effect of "this is where I want to be, I can see see myself being here for the rest of my career, I have no intention on leaving." I say this, because that is what coaches say. I don't think he is doing anything wrong by saying he intends to be here for the long haul any more than I think he did something wrong by leaving ISU or would be doing something wrong by leaving us at some point for what he perceives as a better opportunity. It's just how the coaching game is played. -
Maybe you're right. I just haven't seen that. I also thought it was a strange post for Torch to pounce on that particular post since it was clear he was posting something he saw somewhere else. I'm not message board savvy enough in most situations to figure out how to attached stuff, but if/when I do, I would hate to be called out for plagiarism when that's not what I was doing.

That was my thought too. When Bess came here, he sat out a year, and then knew he was here for the rest of his time in college ball. Now, if we get a guy like Bess, he will be gone after one year of putting up some decent numbers.
-
I just think that it was obvious that he was copying and pasting it. Plagiarism is when you hold something out as being your own creation even though it was created by someone else. That is not what he did. Also, I would think that someone who has been very wrongfully, and comically, accused of plagiarism on this board would be a little bit more sensitive to that word being thrown around and used improperly.
-
I'm pretty sure he wasn't trying to say "I created this, everyone have a look."
-
I'm confused. He didn't say he created the chart. People post stuff they see out there on this board all the time. Is it plagiarism every time someone reposts something?

I’m at the Billiken golf classic. Rumor going around that we are about to sign a St. Louis kid out of the portal. Anybody have an idea who that would be?
-
I bet Sooner fans want to slap him. Again and again.

Seems like a perfect fit for Schertz’s system

Love the idea of getting a four star high school kid that had chosen USC. Here is an excerpt from a MaxPreps article: Liam Campbell of Owyhee (Meridian) is the 2023-24 Idaho MaxPreps Player of the Year. The 6-foot-4 senior guard led the Storm to a 24-3 record and the program's second state championship in the past three seasons. Campbell averaged 16.8 points, 5.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists per contest while shooting 49.1 percent from the field, 40.5 percent from three-point range and 85.7 percent from the free throw line. All three of Owyhee's losses came against out-of-state opponents.

I think everything in the store will be specific to a player. Any profit that's made off of a players "line" will go to the player.

Avila NIL Deal with Chicago White Sox and others

We just need Pasta House to send a tweet of Nochad Omier sitting at a table eating a big bowl of pasta. -
Swope is going to look tiny out there. He is 5" smaller than any one else on the roster.

For comparison purposes, Brooke Flowers is 6"5"
