Hahaha. I’m not sexist at all. But the university charges more for men’s tickets than women’s, is that sexist? Bc by doing so they are saying the men are more important the women right? The men’s basketball revenue is also greater than the women’s. Especially from a NCAA tournament payout. It’s better business to support the men more to help get them back to elite status. Previous staffs mismanagement shouldn’t hinder the new staff. When other programs are willing to pay $4 mil for 1 player on the men’s side, yes it needs to go to the men’s team.

I think Pitino is a better coach than he gets credit for. Minnesota is a millstone job imo. The only coach in my lifetime that was successful there cheated and got caught. Nobody else has been successful. In today’s climate it doesn’t get the NIL necessary to be competitive either, so it’s still a bad job. Pitino can do well at Xavier imo. And the game vs St John’s will be must see tv imo. Doesn’t mean he will go to a final four, but nobody else at Xavier was getting there either.

Mismanagement is different than lack of need. Give it to the men’s program.

Where did he say this?

Rather it go to Mens basketball.

Yeah unsure what’s happening. But Virginia did have an interim this year. So all may not be lost. Probably a depth piece at this point.

Double digits hammering coming Marylands way.

Even my wife said “didn’t he travel?”

I’m not sure how successful he will be at Iowa. With their issues with NIL, he will be at a consistent talent deficit. He won’t be winning the conference or going deep in the tournament with a consistently undermanned roster compared to the top of the conference.

UConn has played tough. Gotta respect their grit and cohesiveness.

They will be a regular tournament team if I had to guess. He is a good coach but he isn’t some elite coaching genius.

If Marshall is gone then they should look at Sanderson the former Michigan strength and conditioning guy. He was under Beilien and then got into it with Howard his last year about nepotism. Called Howard out for treating his sons differently than the rest of the players and how it hurt culture. So Howard had a temper tantrum and Sanderson was shown the door. But he is an excellent S&C coach.

They going to wait to announce them all at the same time?

I’m the same. The Taco Bell incident is all I’m aware of. That’s not something to kick a kid off the team for immediately imo. That’s an immature learning opportunity.

Tony Adragna brought up on the crimson cast podcast he doesn’t see how Goode gets another year. Galan said it’s bc of fear of being sued by the NCAA. Will be interesting to see what happens.

I wouldn’t be surprised if more players stay than the fanbase thinks. The players are making good money here and there was a lot of talent that underachieved. DDV could be thinking he could work with many of the players.

So will we hear official staff hirings before the portal opens?

Texas Tech has deep NIL pockets. Could be he is happy there and can get the resources needed to compete.

A lot of fans wanted him fired after losing to Syracuse. He never recovered after that with the fanbase. He even won a Big Ten title after that. But to your point his lows were to low imo.

I think it’s fair to say the SEC was over valued.

Highly entertaining game so far.

We fired Crean for sweet 16’s. So that can’t be the bar. Let’s also see how Dusty does once he doesn’t have Goldin anymore.

Hope he goes to the Big XII

Oh me too. But that’s not the reality.
