To be fair, I do not think it is Brooks Sr.'s job to keep squelching rumors that might pop up on this board. 

I guess we could wait for him to come out with a statement: "I'm a Lex-hole now. I eat fried chicken and raise thoroughbreds..."

Have you not been paying attention to btb to see how much attention he's getting as it is?

It would be a heck of a lot more if he was in the portal.

Mike Woodson said that Mike Woodson is not done with the portal! I like it

Yup, I was right, the “bad news” for Kentucky was football related as Wimsatt commits to Rutgers

In my opinion Nunge would be a nice addition.  He's been battling injuries his college career but when healthy he's definitely a stretch 4/5 that can board.  Coach Woody would work wonders for him, think Steve Novak.  

However I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up at UE.  

Also what is considered "closer to home" for him?  I think his sister was or is on scholarship at ND.  Is MSU or Michigan close?  Is just a few hours drive close to home? Is just a few minutes close to home?   

Regardless what he decides I truly wish him the best.  That young man has been through a lot.  

Looks like a 4 hour drive is considered "closer to home" as he's transferring to Xavier.  His major is accounting so I'm really surprised he didn't end up at either IU or UM.  Maybe IU didn't want him?  Or maybe he didn't want to transfer to a B1G?  Who knows.

It was known once he was in the portal that B1G teams were basically out

If  Miller had the managers and graduate assistants being primarily in charge of developing the players it would explain a lot of the last 4 years. It would also make me that much happier that he is no longer the coach.

Is that something that’s common for college coaches to do? Because no offense to managers and grad assistants, they’re valuable people, but they aren’t the people I’d necessarily pick to develop D1 basketball players.

If true that’s insane

In some case grad assistants will depending on what they are working on. They are assistants after all. Managers well that’s another story. That shouldn’t happen.

Yes, it's not rare that graduate assistants are a part of helping out in development of college players....assistants do end up on the road a lot recruiting.  While they probably aren't the primary ones developing, why have them around if they don't provide a service?

Well before Miller was fired, I had heard something along the lines of Miller himself rarely if ever directly coached players, and that it was all delegated to assistants. And if Miller had specific instructions for players, it was relayed through an assistant who would then talk to a player. Which I think is even worse than grad assistants being tasked with skills development, but fits with this sort of delegating down mentality

They can help out. But responsibility has to fall on the coaches.  

[WayneFleekHoosier]

I think it’s fair for coaches to recommend certain drills that the grad assistants can monitor/run. Especially individual stuff. Even team stuff that focuses on skill development. 
 

team related stuff relative to offense/defense should be head coaches/assistants to prevent confusion.

If true, this may explain the lack of connection felt by fans between Archie and his players.  The players will allways better respect someone in the foxhole with them.  Individual talks, instruction, man to man.
