Wonder how much of a pay cut he took leaving UT?

I’d say a lot. Probably making low 6 figures in the French league would be my guess.

right around $100k id bet

I wonder if Momma Z keeps the house in East Knoxville.

Is the top league in Spain still considered the best in Europe? If it ever was at all?

With how much was raised? They should own that thing outright (at least damn near).

Chit, I'm about to have a house fire at this point.

They paid $200k. A good chunk more than that was raised IIRC. They probably paid cash for the Boyd’s Bridge house.

I didn’t bring it up as to question whether or not she can sell it and keep the money. She (they) can - no argument from me on that. I’m just curious if the Zs permanently settle in Knoxville with ZZ making the move to play basketball in Europe. He could be elected mayor here.

They probably stay in East Tennessee and wait for ZZ to come back home and coach our Vols in the future.

Does anybody know when Massamba actually gets to campus?

So did some looking... that league the budget is set for each team yearly some have huge budgets some do not. The team ZZ joined had 1,662,000 player budget (in euros) for 2024-25...so depending on number of players could be 100k or 150k (euros).

France is a a mixed market economy with some strong socialist principles for the most part, so likely player salaries are near equal top players wouldn't make a huge amount more, unless they went to top teams.
