If we're really in the big boys club now, pay DH what he wants. We need him
and it would be good for the team.

Doesn’t Khalifa only have one year of eligibility left?

We heard during the season that he'd need surgery in off-season

He's RS'ing this season. It was announced shortly after his Louisville signing was announced.

How? I thought foreigners can’t get NIL deals due to visa restrictions

It’s Louisville

They can, but only if it's a passive engagement

You can pay them for things they do when they're not in the US

Wow they over paid NIL for Khalifa.
crimedog
Apr 19, 7:48am
Hmm. Maybe not. His style of play could put a lot of people in seats. Including non-fans.
SinkingQuffa

Ramadan is earlier in 2025, so maybe he will be more useful come March.

He's not playing next year.

Standing at the top of the key and passing the ball?
crimedog
Apr 19, 8:24am
He's actually a great ball handler on the perimeter. Not stationary out there at all.
SinkingQuffa
Apr 19, 8:28am
yes I am over simplifying it. He was still an extremely one dimensional player.
crimedog
Apr 19, 8:44am
His athleticism & reach are really bad, but his D in the paint was surprisingly good, despite.
SinkingQuffa
Apr 19, 8:49am
He did pretty good for a guy with one leg held together with duct tape
niqmadu

At the end of the day, he's a tough dude. Which is why I'd invest in a post-surgery version of that gimpy knee.
SinkingQuffa
Apr 19, 9:56am
He's taking the redshirt to heal and yes you are oversimplifying
stansburycoug
Apr 19, 10:12am
He was playing on one leg. Athleticism isn't his game but he's a crafty scorer..

I'm sure individual players jockeying for more money from a limited pool

It needs all the contracts, obligations, and caps of a professional sport then

If BYU can’t keep prototype BYU RM guys named Dallin…I don’t know what to

Yep...we are screwed if we can't keep RMs named Dallin who are barely top 100

I'm told the reason Hall was asking for 600K is that he felt players should be

But doesn't he know our coach is an NBA assistant??? That's what really matters!

Can't blame him. Unlikely to make out in the nba. Might as well get paid now

“Unlikely” is still an overstatement

I’m fine with NIL, but that AND the transfer portal with no sit out penalty

Yes, and need a cap

Paying these kids big $ is fine with me….once there are actual contracts in place.

Agree 100%. I’m okay with NIL in principle

Sounds pretty spot on. Creighton #1 fan is Warren Buffett. They get who they want.

Does he have any eligibility left? 😉

If you can't pay your best player 300k, they will transfer every year

Wow maybe I can get paid for my one inch vertical too

Let's assume $300k/year for 3 years of play.

I can't fault Dallin Hall or others for wanting to get paid

Somehow we hope limited schollie spots & limited playing time keep us non-elite teams relevant.

Your operative word is, "hope."
BYUJoJo

In so bleak a situation — I can't muster anything stronger.
SinkingQuffa
Apr 19, 10:52am
And maybe the atmosphere at BYU and its affiliation

The internet has made us more viable to a wider range of kids. Our fanbase is key if we live

Hall will get 150-200K this year from BYU with potential for more his Sr year if

Let Hall walk then. He’s not worth it

I hated NIL from day 1 and it's just as bad as I imagined, maybe worse.

Hall is worth it. Hope he chooses to return to BYU. Biggest reason Cougs had such a good year.
