At first glance I thought Tyler Davis and DJ Hogg were crazy for not playing college for another year. But neither would likely be drafted into the NBA even after another year in college. So they came out and will get a shot in the NBA as free agents. But I believe they'll make more than $100,000 for years to come playing a game they love overseas. Not a bad deal.

This article is seven years old so the salaries are likely to be more in 2018. I was surprised to see some of the salaries. I thought $100,000 would be the max and the other players would be less than that.

This is a pretty comprehensive list of Aggies playing professionally. Amazing that some of these guys caught on professionally. Click the arrows to sort by year. Evidently David Edwards was playing at 47 in Nigeria in 2017.

Professional Aggies.

Hogg wont make jacksquat if he doesnt learn to make 3's.... more specifically wide open 3's. Ball handling not good enough for nba, cant create his own shot in my opinion. So either make 3's or he wont have a job for long.... like most players

If Hogg can find the motivation to actually play hard all the time he'll make a lot of money playing basketball.

Tyler Davis is going to make plenty of money playing hoops for quite a while.

That's crazy. Always loved watching him play.

Hogg could definitely get on with the Pelicans if he puts his head down and commits to it, they need more shooting.

Tyler is playing SL with Brooklyn, hope he can have a great showing and go from there.

I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see it with Hogg unless he perfects his shot and/or really improves his handles. In his entire career I can't remember a time he beat someone off the dribble. Davis could be very successful in Europe. Hope to see them get plenty of chances in the NBA.

Many international players don't pay taxes on that salary and get housing/living stipends so it goes even further

That is one of the most amazing posts I've seen on Texags (the list of Ags). What a blast from the past! Bernard King was still playing last year?? Interesting stuff!

Hogg will be fine with Euroball. They don't care about weed, and before the suspension Hogg was a top 15 played in the nation on advanced metrics.

Davis has great foot movement. I think he needed another year conforming his body. Not too many belo the rim post players in today's NBA. Smart kid, he'll find a role in Europe.
