Bouncing back & forth between a generational talent like Peterson and a guy that shot 39% from the floor in Melvin Council at point was so weird. That entire roster construction was bizarre. What I would give to give Self another shot at building a roster around DP for one year.

Darryn Peterson to @swishcultures_ post Vegas summer league debut: “I’m back having fun. I wasn't really experiencing it that much at Kansas. I was off [the ball] a ton. … I feel like myself again. Being on the ball, that's what comes with it - being double teamed”

@Sully_2029 That's what they said when they slapped the First National Bank logo on the court. Does more logos/patches mean more winning?

@RockChalkBlog I’ve walked into Allen Fieldhouse, looked at all the titles and rings and thought “man I’d really like more of these”. It’s a $ game now.

Have you ever walked into Allen Fieldhouse, seen all of the Kansas Lottery and Dillons and First National Bank and Continental and Libman and Delta Dental and Wendy's and LMH Health logos, and thought "man they could really could use advertising out there"? Enter crypto patches!

@dillondavis3 @chartingthehaw1 Yeah, this is the best summation of where I'm at, I think. KU is just playing the game. I wish this wasn't the game that had to be played.

@chartingthehaw1 You can appreciate that KU is doing what they can to support their student athletes in this current environment while also wanting changes to the environment we're in. I think that's where a lot of us are at.

"Evolve or be left behind." - Travis Goff If you want KU to be able to continuously compete at the highest level in this day and age of college athletics, these types of partnerships have to be made. And a patch on the jersey is a small price to pay.

I don't want to hear "this is how college sports are now" blah blah blah. It looks awful. If putting Monster energy and sketchy crypto ad logos on your jerseys/fields are how college sports are now, how college sports are now sucks. Money, money, money. Greedy bastards.

@rockchalk84 This was so awesome. Then they tried to change it to stuff like "Are you G?" hoping that would make it stop, and when it didn't, they just stopped asking questions all together 😆

@joeywingspan Instead, you'll get having multiple logos on every field/court/jersey and the athletic department swinging and missing in the portal because they "just don't have enough money" to keep up with titans like... Louisville

@RockChalkBlog I’ll take competing for national championship every year and putting together the best roster possible. You don’t even notice a logo on a jersey when you’re watching on TV and a guy like Darryn Peterson is willing a team to victory at Texas Tech.

Yormark really did this for barely $1 million per school? So in addition to being out of touch and money-starved, he's also a terrible negotiator. What a catch, this guy

@JohnSmithFarmer I understand that. Not disputing it. Just saying that totally blows. I've hesitated with the "they've ruined college sports" take because it sounds like an old man yelling at clouds. But they've ruined college sports.

@RockChalkBlog In the world today, you can either increase your NIL budget or ignore revenue streams … You can’t do both.

@BKenshiK Yormark can sit on a cactus. But KU doesn’t have to say yes to put an ugly ass Monster energy logo on the court. Nobody has ever walked into Allen Fieldhouse and thought “huh, they could really use some advertisements in here”

@RockChalkBlog Tbf this isn’t on KU. This is on the Big 12 for their bad decisions. And unfortunately I presume every team in the big 12 gets roughly the same amount of money from this (probably pretty low) and won’t budge the needle on Kansas’ percfoance in the portal

If you’re going to stamp an ugly ass Monster energy logo all over everything, I don’t want to hear a peep about how Kansas basketball doesn’t have the NIL money to compete for whoever they want in the portal.
Mike Vernon@M_Vernon

HEARING Kansas will have the Monster Energy/Big 12 logo at least its: - Basketball jerseys - Football jerseys - James Naismith Court - Football field Possibly more. Early expectation was around $1M per surface.

All we asked for was for the Andrew Wiggins and Frank Masons to be able to get revenue when a shirt with their number on it is sold. Or for them to be allowed to do commercials for the local used car dealership. Instead we got Monster goddamn energy logos on James Naismith Court.
