I’m confused as well.

Maybe it means you can only schedule 28 or 29 games but if you want to get to 31 you have to play in some tournament.

It caps it out at 31. And if you don’t play in a tourney you play 29. Not really sure what it changes. I guess maybe just gives specific structure where there technically wasn’t any?

Evan Daniels reporting Wake Forest has fired Danny Manning.  He was 78-111 in 6 seasons; his best season was in 2016-2017 with a record of 19-14.

Since the season ended so long ago, this almost seems like firing a coach in June. ... Did the administration wake up and all the sudden, say, "We just realized: We've been pretty awful over the past six seasons. Time to get a new coach." ... Timing seems very odd.

He was pretty terrible. They were fairly decent through portions of the 90’s and early 2000’s.

Wonder if his buyout anniversary just came up and knocked the payment down a nice chunk.

Gotta be Wes Miller, doesn’t it?

At least for awhile, they named Randolph Childress as the interim head coach.  He's been on the Wake staff for 9 years.  FWIW, Borzello thinks Miller or Steve Forbes are the most likely replacements.

 

Subsequently saw more info that not a single player Manning signed in '16, '17 or '18 are still with the program and played a role in his dismissal along with his overall record.

Took them way too long to fire him.

Just some interesting stats...
Wisconsin has beat us 29 times since 2000 and Indiana still holds an 82-41 since 49’-50’.

We’ve beaten Northwestern the most of any opponent where we are 92-27 since 49’-50’.

We have a losing record to 24 schools since 49’-50’.

Texas Rio Grand Valley, Northern Iowa, Ole Miss, Miami(FL), Loyola(MD), Lipscomb, Cleveland State, Clemson we are 0-1 against each.
Wake Forest and Villanova we are 0-3 against each. Those are the only 10 teams we haven’t been since then.

We are 1-5 against Syracuse. 1-3 against Boston College. 3-7 against Duke.
1-2 against Wichita State, IPFW, Pepperdine and Colorado.
3-6 against UCLA and UConn.
19-30 against Kentucky.
2-3 against Arkansas.
6-8 against Maryland.
7-8 against Louisville.
8-9 against Missouri.

We haven’t lost to 146 teams in that time span. The most wins coming against Ball State where we are 14-0.

For evaluation? Sure, makes sense.
