**2025 Iowa Offseason & Coaching Search Thread***

For some reason I can't copy the tweet, but Matt Norlander is reporting DeVries is getting just under 5 million per, but Indiana is trying to secure 7 million for NIL.

Look one post above

For some reason I can't copy the tweet, but Matt Norlander is reporting DeVries is getting just under 5 million per, but Indiana is trying to secure 7 million for NIL.

It sounds like its 7 million NIL plus revenue sharing (2.5 mil), so almost 10 million all in.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

$7M + the $2.5-$3M in revenue sharing. $10M roster every year and almost $5M in salary.

Surely he’ll be the one to satisfy Indiana fans and will be able to meet those expectations.

 

[CamelTones]

I don’t understand the point of throwing out the $7 million figure if your Indiana. The players are just going to want more. They’ll be bidding against themselves.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

Indiana spent over 5 this past year and that didn't get them shit

 

[CamelTones]

They spent over $5 million on their roster this year, lost to a 17-16 Iowa team by 25 and missed the tournament. But I’m sure another $5 million will do the trick.

Swinging their dick around.

Well it got them Darian DeVries.

 

[Iowatheltics]

Look. Fran needed to go. Period. I don’t care if BG answered “Fuck if I know” when asked if she had a plan on who the next coach should be before firing Fran.

Agree with that about Fran!

 

[AZmessDAWG]

It wasn’t that long ago that DeVries was getting passed over for jobs.

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Supposedly the three biggest NIL spenders this year were Indiana, Arkansas, and Kansas State. Only one made the tournament and Arkansas was squarely on the bubble.

The issue for NIL is that basketball team salaries should be like the NBA . Great teams have 2-3 elite players (who get more than half of the totL salary) and then role guys. However in college the elite players will be one and dones. So schools are throwing over a million at guys like Owen Freeman who are properly a role player when in shape and not a bitch on a contender level team.

 

[hawkstud44]

To be fair we didnt have many players worth 300k

There's gonna be multiple players from Iowa that are gonna make double that next year

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

Coleman Hawkins was paid over a million dollars to play basketball this year.

 

[CamelTones]

There's gonna be multiple players from Iowa that are gonna make double that next year

If that number is 3 players, that’s $1.8 million….and we saw what that the end result of that was a bad product.

 

[BluesHawk]

What a world we live in. These $$$ numbers are insane, for both players and coaches.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Coleman Hawkins was paid over a million dollars to play basketball this year.

The supposed number is $2M with the caveat that you have to take all of them with a grain of salt.

 

[Wanderer]

42mil?

Indiana just throwing money around.

if they’re going to pay that, why not go stronger at guys like Otzelberger or whoever.

 

[Hawk&Balls]

There's gonna be multiple players from Iowa that are gonna make double that next year

Freeman, harding and pryce should average 600k, and that's with freeman getting 2mil

 

[kenos]

 

[RecreationalGynecologist]

Well it is his dream job, per those of in the know.

Whomever pays more is the dream job 95% of the time.

 

[Herky823]

Anyone who donates any amount of money this shit is stupid unless you’re Oprah rich and it’s essentially like spending a couple bucks to you. Like Larry Ellison with the Michigan qb

Are you not rounding up when you get you ice cream helmet?

 

[Revolver]

The supposed number is $2M with the caveat that you have to take all of them with a grain of salt.

Plus we have yet to see that list that one Asshole “agent” threatened to put out of the teams that still owe players a lot of money!!!!!

 

[YugoslavianMountainHound]

If someone gives Harding money in the portal….

 

[Herky823]

Are you not rounding up when you get you ice cream helmet?

I am not a rounder. Though I don’t advertise that fact. Not because I feel pressure to do it, but because I don’t want to be associated with the people all over the internet who think companies do it so they can write off your donations.

 

[gohawkeyes811]

It really is a shame what has happened to college football and basketball.

 

[Gushawk]

Very glad to see that Operation Rehabilitate Gary has been commenced. He’s got a friend in Wade.

 

[CamelTones]

People are donating large sums of money to this shit because they saw someone from a mid major that averaged 14 ppg and put out a 2 minute highlight video at noon was interested in their school.

They had no idea this person existed while eating breakfast that morning.

I still love TOS because it’s Dork Central. If you donate $20 / month to the collective you can get a “badge” by your screen name and if you don’t have one there is badge shaming.

“It’s less than a daily cup of coffee!”

 

[Gushawk]

A bunch of small dollar donations ain’t the way when it comes to this shit. Go whaling or GTFO.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

you all do.

 

[TurdBurgler]

We have no whales is the problem

 

[TurdBurgler]

Here's a question -- is tucker good enough to play on a 7 million dollar roster ?

 

[Herky823]

Cade reportedly got $600k total right? If you donated $20 /month for his entire two years here and you pretend that all of your money went to the quarterback and not monsters protege who left after taking 100k you can claim 1.22 passing yards (rounded up) as being due to your financial contribution.

and you get an imaginary badge. What a deal.

 

[The Dad]

Aplington Parkersburg is the SEP of the north. Win some games but churn out men who lack honor and the courage to do what’s right.

 

[ISUFan98]

The supposed number is $2M with the caveat that you have to take all of them with a grain of salt.

I have trouble believing that he got that much when Dickinson got what, $1M?

These numbers are ridiculous.

 

[CamelTones]

Drakes first practice looks different than I assume any Iowa practice looked.

 

[L. Wade Childress]

Aplington Parkersburg is the SEP of the north. Win some games but churn out men who lack honor and the courage to do what’s right.

they don’t really win anymore.

 

[HiawathaHawk]

Trilly says he heard we’re offering salary around $3.5M and NIL in the $5-6M range with rev share included. Said they’ve done a great job getting numbers up. Might have had him until IU swooped in hard this weekend.

So opposite of everything Wade is saying.

 

[Hawkstrat]

Drakes first practice looks different than I assume any Iowa practice looked.

He needs to shave his head or something.

 

[Shawneemicks]

LWade needs a banning imo
At least two weeks in honor of his brother Kakert

 

[CamelTones]

He needs to shave his head or something.

His head looks oblong in this interview.

His interview on KXNO yesterday was pretty good.

Hopefully that money wasn't only there for DeVries. Provide enough for McCollum and his biggest question mark goes away.

 

[Talkin' Goat]

I’m bummed about DeVries. I really just want to give a fuck about Iowa hoops again.

 

[CamelTones]

I think Iowa needs to keep this around if they can:

Those numbers, if true, are not actually that bad. That NIL range is exactly where WVU is at from those initial reports. That should put Iowa close to middle of the pack in the BIG. Not great, but doable with a McCollum type coach.

It’s a question.

 

[Saul Berkley]

His head looks oblong in this interview.

It's because his hairline is receding very unevenly.
