He’s 19-25 last season through this one. He’s also the best coach they’ve ever had accounting for half their NCAA appearances, most of their post season wins and their only FF.

 

If age weren’t a factor he’d surely be getting more time. Might even be partially mutual.

I seriously doubt he would have been back next year.  Lost their last ten last year, are 4-8 this season.  You can’t survive that kind of losing very long.

RIP to Greg Gumbel. Always seemed like I heard his voice just once a year and it was one of my favorite days of the year.

Am I the only who didn’t realize that guy was 78? Selection Sunday will not be the same.

Dude looked 50 for basically as long as I can remember. I had to do a double take when I saw he was born in 46.

Greg was aces. March Madness and Selection Sunday will never be the same. 

(Can't stand his brother, though ...)

And 8 of them entered the portal after the season ended from what I read.  NIL does not automatically buy you commitment or loyalty.  It buys you warm bodies.

And excuses. I got all these new guys!!

He looked like he was in his 60s.

I always thought Greg was younger than Bryant was.. I remember watching Bryant on NBC in the 70's doing NFL and college basketball

Eastern Kentucky hanging with Louisville  with 3 to go. Good game so far.  Same Louisville team that took us to the woodshed.

Louisville ended up hitting a layup with 1.2 to go win it by 1

UCLA up 2 over the Zags at half 

[Muskie plays the four]

Nice set Zags. Very good game.

Wasn’t a foul though

Nembhard chokes on the FT.

[Uspshoosier]

Shot that too early.  UCLA holds on 

[Home Jersey]

Nembhard with a half court heave with 5 seconds on the clock … seemed odd. Poor kid crapped the bed last 10 seconds after making a good finish at the rim to have a chance to tie it.

And he choked on the final shot. 

No reason to launch from 50 feet with 3.8 seconds to go.

Then jacked up the three with all kinds of time.

Love the unnecessary shot from a mile away with 4 seconds left.
