I hope Drew was able to milk more NIL money from the donors. Hard to build a top 10 roster these days if you're fighting an uphill battle due to inadequate NIL money.

Biggest cause/effect of this that we care about is that our elite recruiting class (I would assume) stays intact for 2024.

VJ. Wright. Asemota. Boyed.

Gonna be another good year for the Bears.

I was ready for Mack to leave. If I were ready to bury Mack (regardless of his actual influence in the decision), then it follows I must credit him for anything he did to keep Drew in town. This is now the 2nd impressive thing Mack has done after the unfortunate decision to retain Aranda-the first being his willingness to got to bat for us with the ejection against Iowa State. So yes, credit to Mack.

According to the CBS Sports article, more NIL $$ was privately rallied. My question is, since supposedly KY was in the $10Mil range for him, did his BU $5Mil contract increase?

How far behind are we in NIL funding at this time? Is there an accurate number out there?

Got quoted on a Twitter account that highlights over the top comments too.

I know we are all super happy, but isn't it completely wonderful that CSD is the man he really claims to be! That his culture of JOY is real and that he isn't swayed by the almighty dollar and ego?!! I wouldn't have faulted him if he left, ( and if he felt God was leading him to UK), but so grateful that he is staying!
I have two friends that know Drew reasonably well - not friends but interact with him via work. Both said the exact same thing - he is 100% genuine.

Listen cornboy...I lived and work in Kentucky for almost a decade. I have connections on both the UK and Louisville side and have personally had dinner with Cal and Pit during that time. If I say Drew was offered - he was offered as my sources would have knowledge of that. F off...
LOL.

This really turned bad for you now that it shows your "connections" had no clue what they were talking about.

You didn't just say he was offered but that he had accepted. and you were wrong.

LOL.

Two people you don't know..
Ok. So now what do your sources tell you?

Lesson learned. No harm done, but remember that not all "inside sources" are the same. The list of people that actually know is usually a lot shorter than people think, and sometimes only one person knows.

The plane is on the move and not headed to Waco again.

Fun read if you want to watch grown men guess about flight paths in real time and get worried they might hire Tony Bennett.

https://kentucky.forums.rivals.com/threads/craft-jet-on-the-move.412500/page-3


I'm 100% convinced that the pilot became aware of that thread at the start of page 3 and said, "watch this!" And then proceeded to laugh in the cockpit while refreshing the page.

Edit: lol - on page 4 someone said the exact same thing: pilot was reading the thread.

Given the massive leverage CSD suddenly had I would have to assume this happened.

Thankfully NIL is a little easier to navigate in bball since there are such fewer players than fball.

Agree. And there should've been a statue of Mulk erected a long time ago.

First this tweet gave me hope....then it kind of pissed me off....and now it's a GOAT tweet to be framed and enshrined alongside the WAGTW sign.

Btw....it's now been viewed 4.2 million times

I am going to assume, axiomatically since this UK is an SEC school, that Drew was never offered.

Perhaps that is what the treaty of Mi Casita was about.
