Taj79 Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 Yeah ... this has got success written all over it. Web Apps America? WTF is that? Going to be watching this one closely. Can't help but wonder how Web Apps America is going justify it books and profit margins when it sits already $2m in debt to a no name 2-star Shooting guard in the Ohio Valley Conference.

brianstl Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 I don’t believe for a second that there is an actual $2 million deal for Miller that will pay him $2 million in cash. I believe this is Master P and his business partners playing the media for free publicity for a business venture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dlarry Posted July 4 Share Posted July 4 On 7/2/2021 at 12:55 PM, kshoe said: I'm not a huge fan of the NIL rules, but the one thing I think it does well is get around the non-revenue and women's sports demanding equal pay. If the NCAA had decided to just pay every men's basketball and football player $20k a year, you'd better believe there would have been lawsuits from the non-revenue and women's sports saying it isn't fair. But under NIL it's ever man, women and athlete for himself/herself under free market rules. If the local car dealership decides to pay every men's basketball player $20k and nothing to the women, then its tough luck. I think this may benefit the smoke show female athlete more than anybody. A good looking woman can get millions of Instagram followers by posting one selfie in a bikini. The attractive female athlete is going to make a killing.

Taj79 Posted July 6 Share Posted July 6 Looks like a local kid (Thatch) in a local area (Sikeston) hitting up local folks where he is better known than most. Of course, good for him but he'll need a lot more notoriety going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure the decision was made in late April when Covid was still raging. Stuen being sick at the time and nobody else wanting to lead it could have been a contributing factor, but the women didn't have theirs either.
