for a top basketball player. Well this is how. They're diverting donor funds from the AD to "NIL" where it can be used more efficiently.

And what could the AD spend that $2M on that could possibly have greater ROI than buying a top player? It will pay for itself.

And the irony is that KU has far less money for sports than we do, and that gap is only going to widen... yet, if they put their money towards bribing top talent, while we waste ours on whatever nonsense the AD is currently wasting it on, then they're going to have more on-field success.
