Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel
Excellent payday for Byington, most likely, but not a great job historically. I will be interested in following his progress there. Coaches have humongous egos. They all believe they'll succeed where everyone else has failed. Some just need more money than others to take those jobs. Undead Little R...

Corny played for Dom Perno. He was good and was the main reason URI lost the ECAC New England championship in 1979. I was there at the PCC.

Re: A10 2024 Tournament March 12 - 17 Barclays Bracket and Results
Iron Dukes' half-court defense reminds me of John Chaney's -- looks like a 2-3 zone but they're guarding their men and ready to trap at the seams. VCU looks like a Baron team against a zone.

I think it is reasonable to assume that number of players that transferred from Rhody would be a lot higher if we had good teams and desirable players. Yeah maybe, but that's kind of my whole point.
