2026 Men's Basketball Recruiting

So is FSU spending all of their resources on hoops at this point? They are recruiting at a monster level for a program that is broke

I think the FSU situation is misleading.
The problem with this NIL era is that the media makes a big deal out of the $10M-$20M roster.
Truthfully, kids just want to get paid so it's not like kids aren't playing for $100K to $500k.
Every kid ain't getting $1M+.
I apologize for the poor English but you get the point.
FSU is bargain shopping and they are doing a good job to fill their needs with the resources they have.
I am not saying it's "Moneyball" but they are making the most out of the money they have.

I am saying that playing for $100K is better than playing for just the scholarship alone.
Every kid in the portal isn't getting $1M either.
Just being honest, there is nothing to be ashamed about making $100k to $500K at any age, must less 18-23YO.
