I would say that this is an indication that Walters is staying. I think the true indicator is our current players. We have had current players that have left or were done for the season for "personal reasons" or injuries that did not seem that serious. We have Galloway leaving now. These players know the toxicity of the locker room and program. I am sure that this is getting out to recruits that had committed to us now.
During a recent press conference over the last couple of weeks, I think it was last week, Walters was talking about using the NIL to get transfers to come in and how that seemed to work for IU. He could be talking game about this, but I would say that statements like that have had to be made with some sort of talk with him and Bobinski. We are going to use that money to bring in some more SEC talent from TX and GA?
Football is just not a priority with Bobinski or the BOT. With Bobinski having a contract through 2028. we are probably in the basement for several more years. That is just my opinion. I really hope I am wrong.
Thank goodness for basketball. I hope we have Painter around for the next 10-15 years.
