Kyle Smith to Stanford from Washington St

Like that hire !

Tyson Wheeler ? Or is he not known for his recruiting?

reef

It would be great for the conference if either Young or Murray get A10 jobs. Dan wants to keep them. He specifically lobbied in that last contract to expand his pool to pay them more. They’d definitely be worthy of a job - but I think Dan wants to pay them well enough to stay, and wait out a plum P...

Good for Gerry

What about UConn assistants Kimani Young and Luke Murray ?

reef

Going to be interesting to see where he lands ? Maybe back to the A10 ?

Ok great points you guys made on DH salary

A quick search showed DH 7th in salary

Calipari @ 9.5 and Self @ 8.6 led the way

For some reason Cooley wasn’t on that list don’t know how they missed him

George Mason's leading scorer both declares for the draft and enters the portal. Averaged 16.6ppg in 30.7mpg. Also losing other starter Ron Polite with 7.5ppg in 25mpg.

DH is making 5.25 M per year though 28-29 , big time value contract hope he gets a raise

reef

Imo no chance Dan coaches NBA. They would tune him out in a second. I doubt he will coach anywhere else until he retires. He has the perfect situation at UConn and makes plenty of money now. He could make more at say Kentucky, but where he is now is close to home and Andrea can still go to the beac...

I do not get all the excitement for the Big East only getting 3 teams in. This is not good in my opinion for the A10 or any conference that does not sponsor football. To be consistent, I think it is ridiculous to come up with a NET that means nothing. I said this last year when VCU had no shot at a...

Yup lots of chalk made it through this year , very rare to have all the 1 and 2 seeds alive to the S16

It’s a really good point and outside of SDSU run to the finals last year their performance in the NCAAs hasn’t been good the last few years when they started getting more bids

Whatever the reason it seemed to work Cal upset Duke and made the sweet 16 in 1994 after the firing

Drums, don't be too jaded on players coming from lower-level schools, just need to find the right fit. Look at the players below who are All-A10 (2024) and where they came from: Josh Cohen (UMass) - St Francis (Pa) Jordan King (Richmond) - ETSU, Siena Neal Quinn (Richmond) - Lafayette Dae Dae Grant...

Good luck to Gonzaga handling him.

You want to see D Klingon face up against Zach ?

My level of confidence in whoever we get is not very high right now. Since just about every transfer we've gotten the last 2 years has been over rated. The proof is in the playing. I admit, Bone, that I am jaded as far as the portal is concerned. I am not high on lower level players coming in to ma...

Utah State 13 fouls Purdue 5 Breathe on Edey, foul. Utah St waited until Purdue scored 13 unanswered points before finally calling a timeout. That's pretty much it. PRT, if I was a college coach in an NCAAT game, I wouldn’t let my opponent go on a double digit point run (never mind 13) without call...

I think he was

Bozeman was also an assistant for Campanelli @ Cal and took over for him when he got fired in 93

reef

Wow had some nice upsets with JMU and coached Jason Kidd @ Cal his last year 92-93

RIP he recently passed away

reef

Yeah let’s hope for the best on Hammond ! Need some good news and 1 key player can go a long way on improving that win loss record !

reef

Edey has 51 points and 32 rebounds in 1.5 games pretty impressive even though I want Purdue out !

reef

When was Lou Campanelli a URI assistant ?

Everyone else I knew

reef

Saw a Shaheen Holloway rumor to Louisville

reef

Yeah I had a late feeling that Illinois would spank Duquesne, face it the Dukes were a middling team in a not great A10 that got hot in the conference tournament

Hats off to them for making it to the round of 32 a huge long shot

Billyboy78 wrote: ↑3 weeks ago It seems almost all of the players we have been reported 'showing interest' are guards, even though it's obvious we need bigs. I think more guards ( 1 or 2 of Luis, House and Ways) and/or our incoming guard won't be here.

If Arch can find better players then they will be gone most likely

I didn’t scrutinize every post closely, Reef, but I did notice some negative posts of Cooley similar to some negative posts we get of Archie on here as to style of play, player usage, etc. Didn’t appear to be a lot of excitement around KJ either. A few posters defended KJ regarding his NCAA discipl...

reef

I think @ least 1 more leaves maybe 2 more , we could have a good player commit to us from the portal then someone may leave cuz of playing time as long as the player coming in is better than the player leaving...sign me up all day long and twice on Sunday That’s what I’m thinking 208 exactly

reef

Yeah good effort for Dayton , seemed like AZ had a little too much for them , that’s the danger of getting a 7-10 seed as opposed to a 6 v 11 some times you get a better round of 32 matchup

Jdrums#3 wrote: ↑3 weeks ago I just finished a visit to the Georgetown basketball board out of curiosity. The past 3-4 days have been quiet regarding KJ.

Any intel on our end floating around ?

What’s their consensus on Coach Cooley ? Do they like him long term and just giving him a pass on his first year ?

With the way things are in the sport today and a new AD coming in, I wonder how much longer Schmidt decides to stay around in Olean ? Could he retire ?
