I am sure I will be blown away when these world beaters start committing to Coach Cal, but the wait is infuriating.

QuoteBooster backing is clearly abundant for Arkansas Basketball since their hiring of former Kentucky coach John Calipari. That's now continuing as the Razorbacks hit the recruiting trail to put together an actual roster for him, including a reported commitment by Arkansas alum and Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones that'd be quite the offer if true.

The alleged proposal is reportedly "double" the NIL money that they were offered to sign with Kentucky in order to flip their commitments to Arkansas.

"Jerry Jones is reportedly offering DOUBLE whatever the Kentucky commits were making to come to Arkansas, per @trillydonovan," College Basketball Report wrote on Twitter. "Jerry Jones is an Arkansas booster and reportedly helped them hire John Calipari last week."

If correct, it's uncertain of how Jones would be paying out such a so-called contribution. However, it would all but certainly be in connection to a collective for the Razorbacks. That could be with Athlete Advocate Consortium, Arkansas EDGE, or otherwise.

It's also unclear how notable the figure from Jones actually would be. There's no suspected amount about these commits were going to make in name, image, and likeness while at Kentucky, which makes it difficult to calculate what "double" exactly would mean...

Before leaving the bluegrass, Calipari had recruited the No. 2 class.

LOL.  Its significantly easier to demonstrate a history than it is to sell a promise.

LOL.  The epitome of stupid is not understanding this.

QuoteIt wasn't too long ago when we learned that Maddie Scherr would be taking a visit to Iowa to potentially become Caitlin Clark's replacement.

However, on Wednesday night, the Hawkeyes picked up a big commitment from Villanova transfer guard Lucy Olsen. Olsen averaged 23.3 points per game last season, which was third in the nation behind Clark (31.6 PPG) and USC's JuJu Watkins (27.1).

When Iowa received the commitment from Olsen, that meant that she would be taking up Iowa's last available scholarship. Ultimately, head coach Lisa Bluder and her staff prioritized getting Olsen, and they got her. However, with no scholarships available, that meant that Scherr was sort of stuck.

"Skim Milkey" reported that Scherr's visit to Iowa which was previously scheduled for Thursday has been canceled.

5-foot-11 guard won't be a Hawkeye.

It's been a rough two seasons for Scherr in Lexington thus far, as the 'Cats have won just 24 total games in her two years here.
