This article shows that UK has at least $5.7 million in NIL money to throw around. You gotta pay to play now. You always had to; now it's legal....

Total balance. Or at least that is my interpretation.

Compare, I have seen enough chatter on the interwebs to guesstimate that the football NIL budget currently operates at $1M per month.

But point taken. If you're going to be the man, you got to NIL like the man.

I'm sure Brooks & Co. knows the market numbers for all sports - including hoops - and combined.

I doubt we are at UK level. But we must be doing something as our transfers are not bargain bin. I wonder how we stack up with the Arkansas portal acquisitions.

Arkansas is loading up - 3 freshmen from UK's class, 2 transfers from UK, 1 from UTk and 1 from FAU - all highly ranked.... 2 centers, a SG and a SF from the portal. Like all of Cal's recent teams, they will be talented. Can they mesh? Will they play defense? Will there be enough basketballs to go around?
