It was always the deal that it would be used for player development at KS’s discretion.

Don’t think so at all. I remember the announcement & the words “player development” used. Pretty clear.

Anyone can donate to the program. You could say here’s some money to use for player development.

I don't entirely understand "player development" but of course there is a limit

What do you think is player development? It’s not handing cash. It’s equipment, locker rooms, study rooms, nutrition +.

it certainly could be handing out cash too. with more cash and less need to go

Kind of true, kind of not. What about all the donors giving cash to players before NIL? What was in it for them?
