Re: Portal

Have we heard what Schulte’s plans are? I believe we know where every other Davidson player who entered the portal ended up (Brizzi to Longwood; Huffman to Vanderbilt; Moss to Radford; Skogman to DePaul; and Spadone to Bucknell).

Re: This Season - A Tale of Shooting (or Lack Thereof)

What was the team’s record with a PG who couldn’t shoot but at least didn’t shoot a lot?

Re: This Season - A Tale of Shooting (or Lack Thereof)

Huffman (another sub-30% three-point shooter for his career, but better than 27.6%) took a three every 16.4 minutes.

Re: This Season - A Tale of Shooting (or Lack Thereof)

The coaches just recruited (and ultimately missed out on) a guard transfer who made 8 threes (on 29 attempts, so 27.6%) in 578 minutes across two seasons of college basketball. Do we believe that would have helped?

Davidson (and Dayton and Duke) does not take money in or pay money out for NIL.

Re: Clunie Email re NIL

When it comes to NIL, which is what this thread is about (or at least what I’ve been talking about on this thread), what could/should the College do that it’s not doing? Scholarships aren’t NIL. Facilities aren’t NIL.

Re: Clunie Email re NIL

Great. That there isn’t world peace doesn’t mean you’re not all in on world peace. Just like the fact that Davidson isn’t associated with the biggest-dollar NIL deals doesn’t mean that it isn’t all in. We’ve got two groups of folks on here who seem to refuse to believe the College’s repeated stateme...

Re: Clunie Email re NIL

The College is all in. The College doesn’t and can’t (yet) pay players—via NIL or whatever it ends up getting called. The College can’t force fans to give to the collective or directly to players. But the College is doing all it can. It’s all in.

Re: Clunie Email re NIL

Frankly, we could buy the A10 if we really wanted to. The question is will Davidson go all-in on an endeavor that is inherently smarmy like the NIL. I don't know and will not hazard a guess. I don't know what I would do if it were my decision. Doesn’t the Athletic Director’s email suggest Davidson ...

Clunie Email re NIL

The College just sent an email from Chris Clunie addressing many of the questions and concerns about NIL that have been raised here. He describes how Davidson is (and has for several years now) been embracing the new landscape. Here’s the text: “Dear Wildcat Fans, Davidson Athletics has a history of...
