Re: Who is Archie Miller?

To quote Blue Man's "Conversely, Dave Cox also had Jeff Dowtin - but what did he do with him? Moved him off the ball and had a significantly less intelligent PG running the offense. How did that work?" - 5 plus years later and I'm still infuriated by this awful decision.

Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel

I definitely agree about the DePaul angle. Coach killer and it'd have to be the right kind of midwest person coming from a lower level program to even sniff it. From the Bobby angle, no shot would he and Dan coach against each other. Bobby's made plenty of money at ASU, he could easily afford to go...

Re: 2024 Coaching Carousel

Good questions regarding DePaul and Bobby, PMM. Personally, I don’t think Bobby would ever consider DePaul just because he and Dan would be going head to head 2-3 times a season - and I don’t believe he and Dan want to have to do that if it is avoidable. I don’t think they have the stomach for it, ...
