Imagine playing professional ball in your home country, and a U.S. institution is like "We want you to be our starting guard and take Writing 121."

It's happening more now as Real Madrid and Barcelona are talking about shutting down their youth programs due to players coming over to the US.

NIL changing things globally. I must admit, I didn't really think about that or see it coming.

He committed to Indiana, who hadn't really been thought of as a threat with Oregon and Georgia Tech being viewed as his leaders. Rather disappointing that Altman couldn't land any big transfers this off-season.

I've said this a couple times, but Oregon clearly has minimal cash to play around with right now. We've landed better transfers in almost any other year with DA. To keep the core guys, I'm sure it cost us the majority of our budget.
