price. Good for him if he can get that kind of money.

Does UK pay all their players that, or are they in full-on desperation mode?

If Robinson can get 7 figures at any school he should do that. Then go to the

I don’t know on which planet he is worth 7 figures right now

Indy Coug

Maybe the one that's forking out 5+ mill annual to the HC?

A guy who was 8th on his team in offensive efficiency and whose idea of

Indy Coug

He was sub-30% from 3 in Big12 games.

I love Jax but he definitely shot us out of games at times last year. He makes

What star shooters don't on occasion? He also won us a lot of games, & was our brightest star in more than a few losses.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 7:08am

No I agree with you. I just wish he would work on taking higher quality shots

Finneas

That offense was also very fortunate it had a 6'7 kid w 7'1 wings — who had handles enough to be backup PG.

SinkingQuffa

Imo this is a sign of desperation by Pope/UK if they'd she'll out 7 figures for Jax. Love the kid, but you'd think

CLCougar

Jax is a valuable player, even to UK. Pope isn't so much "desperate" for Jax's talent, though

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 7:06am

I agree about the bond and relationship aspect of his value, but am not convinced he is wired to be the "dog" or leader

CLCougar

Pope is quietly putting together a solid team. I think I saw that his roster is

On the planet that gives it to him. You are worth what you get. Basic economics

A Drew Aitch

I like Jaxson Robinson, but he was probably the 3rd or 4th best player last yr

Link to a report of 7-figure offer? I haven’t seen anything.

NorCal_Coug

May 1, 6:19am

Hatch said this on Locked On- said it’s been reported Kentucky is offer 7 figure

If you’re asking me I have no insight.

SouthernBlueBlood

May 1, 6:46am

No confirmation, but 7-figures would not surprise me at UK.

BYUHgrad

May 1, 6:57am

Are we including figures after the decimal point?

LaserCoug

May 1, 6:19am

Off the top of my head, some BYU guards from the past decade better than Jax:

nova_coug_fan

May 1, 7:04am

Why are you responding with obsessed and comparing him to other former players

SouthernBlueBlood

May 1, 7:24am

Overall, I think he's arguably better than every one of those guys.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 7:29am

Definitely has a higher ceiling than all of those guys

A Drew Aitch

May 1, 7:33am

You are kidding right? One example- here are Kyle Collinsworth's senior stats:

nova_coug_fan

May 1, 7:37am

Kyle who often killed our offense by monopolizing the ball during some of the WCCs weakest years?

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 7:43am

Also, what about Tyler Haws?

nova_coug_fan

May 1, 7:47am

Tyler wasn't half the athlete that Jax is.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 7:57am

Athleticism isn't the question. If that was the case, Khalifa wouldn't have

BYUHgrad

May 1, 8:05am

You're right. It means he's more athletic. By quite a bit. Which is one reason why he's arguably a better player.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 8:09am

Wait, what? Hold on: You're really saying Jaxson is better than Tyler Haws?

Ham

May 1, 8:41am

Sorry to ruin your perfect skies above.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 8:42am

You ruined your credibility is what you did.

Ham

May 1, 8:52am

On this board I'm never too concerned about that.

SinkingQuffa

May 1, 8:58am

Tyler would have made a fortune in NIL because he was a prolific scorer.

The gaslighting is real.

Ham

May 1, 7:47am

Mark my words … NIL will destroy college sports as we know it. Money 💰

jpal1397

May 1, 7:34am

You had me until Nick Emery and Matt Carlino

Roy D Mercer

May 1, 8:27am

Nick would have commanded a large sum to sign from HS. He was a scoring machine

jpal1397

May 1, 10:33am

None of those guys were seriously talked about being drafted nor would they, if

Parker Schnabel

May 1, 9:18am

Robinson is not getting drafted.

ochobeeguy

May 1, 9:41am

I'll say it. I would rather have Hall or Saunders. Better players.

Mitty

May 1, 6:24pm

In real spirit of NIL (advertising), Jax should be worth more to BYU than others

Rexy Coug

May 1, 7:48am

I’ll never contribute to an NIL because it is like dirty money w/no guarantees!

jpal1397

May 1, 8:01am

He'll make more money as a senior in college at his 4th school

BYU Fan

May 1, 8:22am

Good for the player but horrible for the schools playing Russian Roulette

jpal1397

May 1, 8:47am

Sounds like one of those unfounded rumors on the Internet.

BlooCoug

May 1, 9:14am

I just shared what hatch said.

SouthernBlueBlood

Nobody's getting 7 figures annually not named bronny james in mens bball. this has turned into such a rumor mill.
