Bernard King is still the best SEC player player I have ever seen. The only one I didn't see was Pistol, but watched him in the pro's. Nobody could guard him in the post. Tennessee was Final 4 good that season, maybe championship good with the right breaks.
I heard Jeff Goodman talking about NIL values last weekend at the Final 4. He said a PRO is like 3-5 million, an ALL SEC level player was like 1.5-3 million, a starter was 750-1.5, and bench guys were 750 down.
Unless something happens, Lanier isn't coming. He wants a million to play and UT isn't gonna pay that. Aidoo got $1.2 from Arkansas. Right now, we are not gonna pay that much for guys.
Just thought I would post this because it was a very good interview with Coach English. Also, The D.C. Coaches Podcast is one of my favorite basketball podcasts. Check it out.
