Lot's of Power 5 U's also want him too, and in UNC he's leaving a basketball U with a whole bunch of success in their past. No substantiated rumor on any leader so far, but it will be interesting to see who wins the NIL battle for his services.

Bay Area Billiken Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Sure SLU has competition for Caleb Love. But evidently he took SLU's call. Reading the naysayers, if we give up before we even make the attempt, we're never going to get anywhere. Again it's like at the bank, if you don't ask, the answer is always No. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierPal Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 If Chaifetz wants Caleb Love to be a Billiken, he can make it happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love may still want to play P5 ball.. At what point does it make sense to spend a ton on one player, and not have enough to field a competitive team. A fear of mine is spending a $ of NIL funds on one player. Schasz likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At what point does it make sense to spend a ton one player, and not have enough to field a competitive team. I small fear of mine is spending a % of NIL funds on one player. Agree and agree. But any NIL situation is ripe for one player to be overpaid and the others feel jilted. Team chemistry at every University has new challenges.

They are getting their time in the limelight after a disappointing year. I’m sure there are some in this thread who would hate a Caleb Love commitment. I love SLU. SLU does not love me back.

There was never anything more than MBM speculation that perhaps some felt at unease that Yuri was getting such a huge amount compared to everyone else.

Team chemistry at every University has new challenges. If we would somehow land Love, Chaifetz probably wouldn't be the guy paying the bulk of the tab. Just like I don't believe Chaifetz was paying the bulk of the money to Yuri this past season. He paid some of the NIL money Yuri got, but I don't think he was paying most of it.

An individual or corp can now target a single athlete through the Influencer Process. It appears that Chaifetz went through this process, at least in part, for his use of Collins in the NIL. I too have no hard facts on who paid what. What is 'published' is that Collins somehow is repping the Pickleball team and the Chaifetz Group. Compsych is also a Chaifetz company. I doubt that Chaifetz was involved in the clothing brand, but I am just guessing.
