Let's everyone play RU hoops GM ... what would be your strategy. Obviously, some assumptions have to be made. Let us assume, for this discussion, that RU has $4.5 million in NIL + Revenue sharing - which does NOT include the Vegas showcase ($1 million - but spread amongst the players on the roster at the time): $3 million in revenue sharing and $1.5 million in NIL.
After retention and frosh $$ spent (and how much can that really be given the players they are trying to retain and the 4 frosh? Gotta be less than $1 million total, no?), RU should have at least $3 million, maybe $3.5 million.
1) You have 4 retained players, 4 frosh coming in, for 8 players as a start of the roster.
2) Spend $3 million on 3 players: 1 rim-protecting/defensive/rebounding center, 1 2G who can score, shoot the 3 and defend and one WF with length who can score, shoot from 3 and defend.
3) Then spend $250K to $500K (if that is what is left) on 1-2 12-15 minute reserve players, specialists - maybe 1 defensive specialist and 1 off-the-bench scoring spark specialist.
Gee ... maybe I should be the GM?
