Is there a chance we get Thompson another year and bring back Evans and Ayden Williams?
The short answer is noQuote:

Thompson is trying. But no. Of course the ncaa is powerless. So I guess 1%. But otherwise no.Quote:

But we have lots of guys making more than stonka. As it should be. But we will pay someone the same as he was getting and that someone is just as likely to sit the bench too. And trust me, this isn''t defending him, at all. Nor bashing him. He's going to find out he's not worth what he thinks he is and have to play at a g5 for next to nothingQuote:

I wouldn't be shocked if he tried to come back. Not sure Lebby will take him back though.Quote:

If he'll actually accept playing S and understand he's on a prove it deal, then I have no problem bringing him back. I wouldn't pay him much NIL at all though. I mean he's on scholarship so maybe 2K-3K/month after that. I just don't see any merit in keeping him anywhere near his old deal, which was rumored to be near 6 figures.Quote:

Gonna likely be price tag that we don't want to pay for a #2(ish) RB. I imagine he'll want RB1 assurances as well. He's gonna be highly sought after!Quote:
