Hunter Dickinson, one of the highest-profile transfers in men’s college basketball history, revealed Tuesday a key reason he decided to depart Michigan: name, image and likeness money.
On the latest episode of the Roundball Podcast, a show Dickinson co-hosts with Barstool Sports’ Marty Mush and former Iowa guard Jordan Bohannon, Dickinson made some eye-popping claims about how little money he earned through NIL last season while playing for the Wolverines.
“The people hating on me would leave their job right now for a $10,000 [a year] increase,” Dickinson said. “At Michigan, I got less than six figures for the year.”
