Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23
In his bio, it says one of the things he's known for are his defensive schemes. Would that be the packline? I know he coached under Sean, so I would assume it is. Does anybody know what kind of defense he ran at Ball State? Yes it appears he is a pack line guy. Came across this with some of his not...

This signing does not move the needle for me at all. If this is the best we can afford then we are truly screwed. Of course it might not be all about money.

23% of transfers are using the extra covid year. It'll be interesting to see how that correlates to a drop in the transfer numbers next year. It's going to drop, the question is how much. https://twitter.com/CBB_Central/status/1785300440613023748 https://twitter.com/CBB_Central/status/17853015083235...

If he can rebound, play some defense, and be the hard working type player that Pitino described then that's good enough for me. Still more work to be done to finish off the roster.
