What I don't understand... Why are these players leaving Wisconsin? Is it just $$$?

Yup.

Blackwell is probably in line to get big money. The other kid can’t be in line for much more, but if the staff doesn’t think he’s worth it … well.

(If we’re going back, Storr was always looking for the next thing, got the Kansas bag and wasn’t worth it. Hepburn was a weird case where someone with a lot of money had interest in him, and he ended up pulling it all together at the new school)

Wisconsin basketball does not have any wealthy donors. Gard and the staff mine small-timers for scraps. The AD does nothing to help him.

If I were him, I'd leave. He's definitely a great coach, great at development, and a great person.

He'd get snapped up in a heartbeat and he'd make a lot more than what he makes now.

U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!
