and obviously Mike would know better than me, but one of the supposed requirements from Shrews when he was being hired was a strong interest and plan for NIL for the team. That was an issue with PSU and Shrews was vocal about it.

That has to a blow to Coach.

I know for a fact that PSU had plans in place to significantly ramp up NIL spending on basketball if he had stayed.

There was even rumblings about building a brand new practice facility there.

Hopefully some donors step up, otherwise the men will remain the #2 tenant at Purcell.

He made it sound like more of an issue with finding donors

He basically said they're trying, but you also need people to donate to it. Of course, that can also be an institutional problem if they're not putting the priority on finding the donors. Tough to really tell based on a quick comment like that.

Would PC be willing to be like BQ is for FB NIL?

Or are there hard feelings over MB’s departure?
I'm not aware of any hard feelings among the alums *

He would know that it was time for MB to go.
