[QUOTE="Techster, post: 934668, member: 360"] Unfortunately, in this day and age of NIL and free transfers, even if we recruited a good big man and developed him into a Lammers or Wright, GT may have to pony up NIL $$$ money to keep him. Either way you splice it (development vs transfer in), GT is probably looking at having to pay to either keep or get a big man. IMO, the best way to minimize the impact of NIL would have been the NCAA keeping the sit 1 year rule for transfers. SAs still get to transfer wherever they want without the coach or school they're at having to sign off, but if a school really wants a kid they'll have pay him to sit for year. That year also shouldn't count against an SAs 4 years of eligibility. The fortunate thing is Cabrera made it a point during the AD hiring process that he wanted an AD that would help GT with the challenges of NIL...translation: in order for GT to compete, Cabrera knows GT will need an NIL arm in order to compete at this level. We're no longer putting our head in the sand as the winds of change is blowing across the landscape. Now whether Batt successfully puts together a competitive NIL program is another story, but at least we are acknowledging the realities and trying to do something about it. [/QUOTE]
