Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23

Really? Because of a kid who never enrolled, took a class, put on uniform, etc. at URI? Get over it. I think it's BS if another team takes our asst and one of his recruits with him. No I will not get over it. I would say that is quite literally the #1 reason why assistant coaches get hired. Many as...

Re: Assistants under Coach Miller 2022-23

Here's the question - are we still paying KJ if his contract ends in June? Does GT reimburse? Is there any sort of breach of contract rules that is simply part of the business of going to another job? I'm not saying we should sue or anything, just whenever all these assistants leave for other positi...

Re: '24 VA PG Ben Hammond (URI LOI ---> ??? )

I'm still so bummed this morning - had the great news of Lawrence signing followed by Hammond decommitting under an hour later. Talk about a roller coaster. This is the new normal and I'm really starting to hate college hoops.

I've been thinking lately If we had gotten our shit together this year and had more success, we probably don't return the core players we return. They were just inconsistent enough we can add solid pieces to compliment them and have a decent team next year. UMass had a decent year and they lost som...

In think (in years) the past, the semis were thrus and the championship on Sat, but that was like 40 years ago. I do agree that the time is way too late.

Do they still alternate the FF/Champ between CBS and TBS? Or is it all just TBS/TNT/Tru now for the final weekend?

Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel

There have been rumors about Brad Stevens for years - it's always been squashed because the thought is he has no interest in the recruiting etc of the college game. Not sure how true that is, but I would think he'd be back to the college game already if he was going to.
