Armon and Jamarcus Ellis were both booted for the end of the season for a combination of drugs, bad grades, and being late.  They both tried to return when Crean was hired, but he said they were kicked off for a reason.   Essentially all of Sampson's guys were gone the next year.  

End of season. Still Creans players got in More trouble granted he coached here much longer than Sampson.

Does a Boise State loss keep them out of the field? They’re last in and we are first out on ESPN.

No. You’d have to get their transcripts. I was on campus during this time. The team had good gpa that first semester.

Under Crean? His first season, the basketball team APR jumped from 886 under Sampson to 975... the following two years they hit 1000 each.

Lloyd is one name out there that seems like a possible surprise candidate.  AZ isn’t in the best financial shape and Tommy supposedly doesn’t like his AD.  There are no good jobs in the PNW, so Tommy will have to stay far from home if he wants a big program.  This situation could have led Tommy to connect with Scott a while back and get this mostly wrapped up by the time Woody was fired.

I’m just guessing at some other angles that explain how quiet this search has been.

Lunardi predicting Woody has coached his last game….IU first four out….

which means if it’s Stevens….there is no reason not to announce on Monday…zero…

Unfortunately, Lunardi isn't consistently very good as bracket-predicting goes. Seems like a toss-up whether they'll make the tournament.

Big 12 appears to be playing on a large hotel conference center carpet. Interesting choice

Kinda hurts your eyes... the conference calls it "aesthetically unique".

Well It might and I think Ant Wright posted a video of I believe the committee chair who said SEC wouldn’t be only team getting double digits teams in which makes me believe IU and OSU both might be getting in

More like @$$-thetically unique.

Tommy Lloyd would be amazing. Best candidate after Stevens IMO.

I absolutely agree if Few isn’t an option but I think Lloyd and Few are equal

None of those apr scores occur if we don’t self report.

Without the pimping and the drug dealing, we don't self report.  It was a means to an end.
