It’s not being used on Trent Perry; so where does that leave us?
I’ve been operating under the assumption that the last spot would go to a point guard, and the big target was DJ Wagner. But Calipari (who has a long history with the family) has apparently stepped up big and Wagner is visiting Fayetteville this weekend in advance of a presumed commitment.
Beyond that, we’re dealing on social media rumors. Michigan State’s AJ Hoggard listed USC among his 5 finalists. I’ve never heard of Hoggard being on campus. And now the big rumor is that Vanderbilt has stepped up and offered Hoggard $800K in NIL. Hoggard is now visiting Nashville this weekend (supposedly). $800K is a huge price tag, and even with SC’s improved NIL, I’m not sure it’s the kind of offer Muss is interested in making.
What is clear is we’ve hit NIL-flation time as the pickens in the portal have narrowed.
