Hat tip to Robin Washut at On3.com for pointing out that Nebraska apparently has a new general manager. While they went through a thorough search process it looks like they hired within.
Luca Virgilio, who was previously the Director of Basketball Strategies and Business Operations, is now Fred Hoiberg’s new general manager.
Just like football, the world of NIL has changed basketball and it will continue to move in the direction of looking more and more like a professional product.
Virgilio will be tasted with everything to do with talent acquisition, salary cap, NIL, scouting and everything in between.
