WILD: Move Over BYU, Texas Tech NIL and Say Hello to West Virginia, Oklahoma State Football Spenders
The 2026 NIL landscape has shifted the balance of power in the Big 12, as Oklahoma State and West Virginia have executed a massive financial pivots to leapfrog established spenders like Texas Tech and BYU. While the Red Raiders and Cougars dominated the early NIL era, the "Pokes" and "Mountaineers" have recently tapped into deep-pocketed alumni networks to create a new tier of spending. Oklahoma State has signaled its "all-in" mentality with an estimated $55 million in collective NIL spending for 2026. This surge was catalyzed by a culture shift in Stillwater; after Mike Gundy famously took a $1 million pay cut to seed NIL funds, the "Pokes with a Purpose" collective saw record-breaking donor participation. This war chest was the primary engine behind the shocking commitment of Audi Crooks, who reportedly commanded a package exceeding $500,000—a figure previously unheard of for a single women’s basketball transfer at OSU. Similarly, West Virginia has utilized the "Country Roads Trust" to reach an $8–$9 million threshold for basketball alone, placing them in the nation's top tier. This investment allowed the Mountaineers to secure elite talent like Sam Leavitt ($4M valuation) and compete directly with Blue Bloods in the portal. By contrast, while Texas Tech and BYU remain "elite" spenders with healthy infrastructures, their growth has stabilized. Oklahoma State and WVU have entered a "hyper-growth" phase, realizing that in the 2026 conference hierarchy, being "flush with cash" is the only way to prevent being left behind in the next round of realignment.

👉 “Arkansas Needs THIS Big 👀… But There’s a Catch | Micah Handlogten Breakdown”
Micah Handlogten might not be a flashy transfer portal name, but he could be EXACTLY the type of player Arkansas basketball needs heading into next season. In this full breakdown, we take a deep dive into the 7’1, 255-pound center from Florida and why his impact goes far beyond the box score. Handlogten entered the transfer portal after playing a key role for the Florida Gators, including being part of a national championship run. What makes his story even more unique is the fact that he originally planned to redshirt during the 2024-25 season while recovering from a leg injury. However, when Florida suffered frontcourt injuries late in the year, Handlogten made the decision to return in February and help his team make a postseason push. That type of toughness and team-first mentality is something coaches absolutely love. Now the big question is whether Handlogten will receive an NCAA waiver that allows him to play a fifth season. That decision is expected sometime between May and July, and it could significantly impact his transfer market. If he’s granted eligibility, he instantly becomes one of the most valuable “role player” big men in the portal. Statistically, Handlogten isn’t going to jump off the page as a scorer, but his value comes in areas that WIN games. During the 2025-26 season, he averaged 4.1 points and 5.9 rebounds while shooting an efficient 63.7% from the field. But the real story is his rebounding — especially on the offensive glass. In the 2023-24 season, Handlogten recorded 108 offensive rebounds, which ranks as the second-highest single-season total in Florida basketball history. He followed that up with another 100+ offensive rebound season, making him one of only two players in program history (along with Patric Young) to accomplish that feat multiple times. That kind of production translates directly into extra possessions, second-chance points, and winning basketball. At Marshall, Handlogten showed even more upside, averaging 7.6 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 2.3 blocks per game while earning Sun Belt Freshman of the Year honors. He also ranked among the national leaders in both rebounding and shot blocking, showing the defensive impact he can bring at a high level. So what does this mean for Arkansas? If the Razorbacks are looking for a physical, high-motor big who can dominate the glass, protect the rim, and do all the dirty work, Handlogten fits perfectly. He projects as a rotation center who can give you 15–20 minutes per game while impacting the game in ways that don’t always show up in scoring totals. This video breaks down his strengths, weaknesses, fit in Arkansas’ system, and why he could be a sneaky but important addition out of the transfer portal. Is Micah Handlogten a must-get player for the Razorbacks? Or is he more of a depth piece with limited upside? Watch the full breakdown to find out. If you’re a Razorback fan, make sure to like, subscribe, and stay locked in for more Arkansas basketball and transfer portal coverage. Woo Pig! 🐗

Poker, Panthers, and Pork Roll: Sunny Mehta KILLED his Homecoming Presser
Zach Berman opened the episode by discussing some fun local topics, challenging the use of "Taylor Ham" versus "Pork Roll" and jokingly criticizing Sunny Mehta’s Mets fandom. He firmly corrected that "Pork Roll" is the name of the product, while "Taylor Ham" is just a brand, much like "Chips Ahoy" is a brand of cookies 00:00:29. This playful introduction set the tone for a deeper discussion about the new era of New Jersey Devils hockey under Sunny Mehta, emphasizing the excitement and high expectations following Mehta’s first press conference. Shifting to hockey, Zach Berman provided an extensive breakdown of Sunny Mehta’s introductory press conference as the sixth general manager in Devils history. He praised Mehta’s approach, calling the presser close to a "grand slam" and noting the depth, candor, and insight Mehta offered. While some caution was advised—press conferences are often just talk—Zach Berman appreciated Mehta’s step-by-step mentality, his refusal to overpromise about an immediate Stanley Cup, and his plan to build methodically, "brick by brick," rather than rushing lofty expectations 00:02:17. A key point was how Mehta’s background in poker influences his management style. Drawing on Mehta’s "tight and aggressive" poker philosophy, Zach Berman noted Mehta’s emphasis on patience, discipline, and boldness when the right moment arises 00:13:40. Mehta plans to apply this logic to roster construction—waiting for the right opportunities and then acting decisively. Additionally, Mehta highlighted the importance of analytically-informed, collaborative decision-making, aggregating diverse perspectives, and striving for smart, objective decisions repeatedly to maximize the odds of success 00:12:25. Finally, Zach Berman detailed ownership’s continuing commitment to success, including spinning to the cap and putting their trust in Mehta as the sole decision-maker rather than hiring a president of hockey operations 00:21:27. Mehta’s deep fandom, local ties, and genuine excitement for the GM role further endeared him to both Berman and the fanbase. As the organization heads into a new era, Mehta faces key decisions—around the roster, coaching, and front office—which will test his philosophies and drive to restore the Devils to perennial contention while embracing his status as a true New Jersey original.
