MJ the GOAT, but that's a pretty strange flex when LBJ is having such a season. The team isn't good, but nor were the Wizards teams or Kobe's last Lakers...they were awful.

But just as single players:

James:
26.2 PER
30 PPG
59% eFG
6 APG
8 RPG


Jordan:
19.3 PER
20 PPG
45% eFG
4 APG
6 RPG

Jordan's year before, when he was 38, was about the same as when he was 39-40. One could reasonably argue the time away from basketball hurt him. But he was "just ok" at 38-40 years of age. I'd also add that training, nutrition, etc is on a different level than back then, Brady another example. LBJ is still a year away from that bracket. We'll see how he's able to handle his late, late 30s. History says we'll see a subtle and then sudden decline unless he can replicate what Brady's done into his early-mid 40s.
 
ESPN. . . more like SMDH. . .

If 13th in the country is the lowest ranking the kid gets, along with 9th from Rivals, that's a freakin consenus 5* right there...once all the 5 stars are handed out. ESPN has only 10 so far and 247 only has 5! I wonder if even Clausen was a consenus 5*. We're talking Peyton level...man we're living in good times to be a Vols fan.

I like 1951 Club better.

Too football focused. This is more inclusive to all the sports that they’re helping. They’ve done so much for the baseball team this year. So much that there’s another group trying to make a cash grab out of the collective business and using the baseball team as a vehicle for it.

Can you explain what this means? I couldn’t decide if that was a good development or something to be concerned about.

The way “friends of Basevols” was described on basilio is technically illegal, it sounds like they’re operating without a quid pro quo which is one of the only real rules of NIL. You have to provide a service to get the money. he described it as players as the players counsel for money then they ask the executive counsel and then they just cut them a check (a clunky process in general)

Also said they were sending the money to a company in Vegas to hold (blueprint) then they’d hold 20% from what they gave to players but described it as holding it to just cover taxes… but tax rate wasn’t 20% for an amount they’d have last time I checked…

Just too many sketchy things about the friends of basevols IMO.

Ah, so you’re saying - the way of “friends of basevols” was clunky and sketchy, and so they are trying to incorporate baseball into the Spyre setup for efficiency and legality reasons? And thus, the need to alter the name of the collective from a more football-focused moniker to a wider name?
