Fred should be fired today

I have a hard time believing this was “reported” anywhere. There is no way Kalk is being paid that much and there is no way that he gets more than the entire Nebraska program. Sounds like a sour grapes excuse to me.

Edit - I’ve heard it mentioned on local sports radio shows by hosts who used to work in the Nebraska athletic department that Nebraska’s hoops NIL is bigger than Creightons.
Sour grapes from who?

Kalk has an NIL valuation of 1.91 million so if he in fact did get 1.6 then they got a deal on him. I don’t believe Neb has a higher hoops NIL and if they do they have spent it very foolishly in comparison.

Reported Nebraska spent nearly seven figures on Berke. If they did, that was a horrible investment.

I think the thing to remember is that brian kalkbrenner means more to the jays. He is their face so they would totally pay him more. Had he left for his 7th year and play somewhere else it would have been a slap in the face to CU.
 
Everyone thinks you can get a NCAA tourney team immediately but is clueless about how difficult it is to get the players. Very sad.

Not sure I believe that, but I'm guessing he got a decent payday.

I still think Berke has some upside. But last spring when I said he was a project whose offensive game needed a lot of work, you would have thought I pushed Fred's grandmother down a flight of stairs.
 
I'm no Hawkeye fan, but glad they are on the verge of bursting the Entitled Ones' bubble after that screw job NU endured in Columbus.

I don't think he received seven figures but it was probably somewhere in the high six's. We nudged out BYU at the eleventh hour because they had already spent most of their budget nailing down their top international targets. We had some money left because we couldn't compete with the targets higher on our board that we lost out on. Pretty much all of them at that point.

High 6 figures? What a joke. How much does it cost to get a decent player because he isn’t one.
