I don’t think there is another candidate who gets mentioned that immediately brings people out to say it’s not happening. Maybe Beard but for different reasons.

Chris, I’ve said it before, but there has to be groups specifically in charge of putting out specific smokescreens both good and bad, especially if people were potentially told to keep quiet.

It’s getting so it’s hard to figure out who to believe or not to believe.

The quiet is both encouraging and deafening at the same time!!!! Lol

Is Gonzaga a step up or lateral to Arizona?

In the NIL and revenue sharing world both seem a step down from BT and SEC schools

Pitino has St Johns as Final Four contenders

IMO, it’s a step down.  I just don’t see Gonzaga being able to sustain what they’ve had going in this new landscape.

So I guess Motley's drew the short straw and had to work the weekend shift for the AD's Hall Monitor brigade? 

C’mon man. You’re better than that.

He feels like a potential Gonzaga replacement whenever Few retires

Few has already announced his coach in waiting. Doesn't always work out of course. 

“Brian Michaelson will be the guy that takes over for me,” Few said exclusively on the College Hoops Today Podcast. “That’s the great thing about Gonzaga. We always have the next guy up in line.”

Anyone have any insight into Arizona’s NIL situation? Under pre-NIL landscape, no chance in hell someone leaves a successful run at Arizona for IU, but given they’ve lost a few big name players to the portal in recent years (ballo being an obvious example), I can’t help but wonder if their NIL situation is weak enough that Tommy Lloyd would listen. 

Before the search started his name was one that was mentioned that his agent had reached out.

Giving out home addresses, occupations, cell phone numbers, and lunch buddies on a free, public, anonymous message board is frowned upon.

Stupid comments are frowned upon.

I thought they have already named Few’s replacement.

He's also a 100yrs old and a total bag of sheet.

Brian Michealson, I didn’t know they named one already

Reading is important. THE LAST 18 YEARS....  68.2% ..... 426-198

Alford at UCLA lol... only won 66% 

Evidently you can’t read very well. My numbers are for their entire career. Even using you numbers he’s slightly better than Alford. We can do better. Stick that where the sun doesn’t shine. Now that’s funny.

You don’t leave Arizona or Indiana for Gonzaga. Gonzaga’s an incredible program, but it’s great because they’ve got an elite coach who’s happy there. At the end of the day, it’s still a tiny private school in the middle of nowhere, and that matters from a resources perspective and it won’t be remotely the same level of program when few is gone.

Why is the Prince of Darkness wearing white after Labor Day? Geez Sammie Terry would be pissed.

I think it just seems that way because there are a disproportionate number of posts saying Stevens is in play. What do you think would happen if you said Turgeon was in play.

Don’t be surprised when IU has black uniforms with the red script later tonight.

I saw that earlier, he looks like a televangelist getting ready to slay some spirits

If you have a chance to get Tommy Lloyd he easily shoots up to top 3 for me. Even in a down year this year they’re still ranked and have gotten better as the season as gone on. They play a very fun brand of basketball. Top 2 finish in the big 12 every year he’s been there

Which he is. There should be a lot of post on our #1 candidate. One person has suggested Turgeon is in play.

Thing with Pitino is you can use the same playbook you have for recruiting players.  Jankos and night moves always seals the deal.
