Around the Big East

I never said you had to change your opinion of their NIL situation. My point was that I think you grossly overstated Holloway by saying “there is tons of NIL money coming his way”.

Holloway is still seems more hopeful than certain the money is coming. There is no there, there yet, and I am pretty certain he will be monitoring regularly.

Besides, expecting more money from an NIL pool that was one of the lowest is hardly a way for them to “get back on track.”

having NIL money is one thing; using it correctly is another. You can't just look at a player's stats or you could end up with a headcase; i.e., Kansas and Storr, a hell of an "Investment"

I do not think you are correct. The Wright system was to drive the ball into the lane (often with a PG or a strong wing) and then kick it out and cycle around the perimeter for an open 3, using pump-fakes on defenders who were scrambling to cover the rotation. It is true that driving with a small and putting a big on the perimeter to pull out the opposing big (thus making the drive into the lane easier and more likely to draw help) was an element of that and it isn't crazy to have Dixon out on the perimeter (where this year he was a tremendous 3 point shooter).

But all I saw from Nova last night and at many points this season was one pass and then one-on-one play - mostly either Poplar or Dixon being left to create for themselves.

Unwatchable basketball.

This sounds like another program in the BE until recently. ;)
 
Played 12 minutes total the last five games. Completely unimpressive against us either time (2-14, 0-7 3pt). Think Marillac may have to follow his crush to the AAC.

Wasn’t Blocker on Trillys transfer list a month or so back? Maybe Holtman made a choice

I'm mildly suprised but not shocked. I know Father Peter and he is gregarious and warm, but also strong minded and decisive.

Will they bring back Jay Leno, umm Wright?

Guessing Jay will get ahead of rumors and state his disinterest in returning

This was one of the worst hires I can think of, and most people knew it. He may be a good coach, we have no idea, he was thrown in the deep end with no experience and was destined to fail.
 
Neptune wasn’t getting it done.

Good news for Nova fans. They need to get this hire right though. They get players so I would expect a quick return to relevancy. That would be good for Big East as a whole.
