Not the one everyone was expecting. At least not yet.

I don't know if he is interested in coaching anymore, especially at the college level, but he would be good for a lot of staffs.

Not shocked in the slightest Dre Davis is moving onwards. His brother did last year.

Dre Davis was a major reason for Seton Hall’s success this past season. Hoping Zuby achieves similar improvement next season.

So will it be IU, Butler, ND, or Purdue?

Ole Miss making a play for him apparently

Ole Miss making a play for him apparently

I'm sure he will get a lot of calls. He'd be a good piece on a lot of teams. I'm just saying Indiana teams so he is closer to his parents to help with childcare. Plenty of teams will have a couple of dollars for him. I'm just going with pure speculation.

 

[Silly Donovan]

Does UCONN have a super top-shelf NIL budget, on par with the Kentuckys / Dukes / UNCs of the world? (I presume those schools have the most).

Actually as the only state school in a league of all private schools they have that big financial advantage. And Val ( I should step down as commissioner) Ackerman knew that.

 

[NCJohnnie]

As bad as DePaul has been, they have at least three guys currently playing in the NBA (Javon Freeman Liberty - Toronto, Paul Reed - Sixers and Max Strus - Cavs).

As did all of the Presidents and Administration of the 10 private schools.

if numbers floated for him are true... Lance is in for a severe pay reduction

If i remember correctly, we were in on Lance Ware too, and there was a big debate whether we got the better player in Zuby rather than him. I'm glad we did. The comparisons by others of Ware to Sears and Steere here are pretty close; I had hoped, however, never to think of those two again, or even Arnoldo Toro.

Another step in freezing the BE out of competitive non-conference games that would raise its profile and potentially add NCAA bids, thus taking money away from football conferences.

This all sucks.

The way the Big East were treated by the committee has made me terrified of becoming a glorified Atlantic-10 for the first time.

It is all about leadership and vision, sadly Val seems over her head

[bucketshardy]

There seems to be implicit Bias towards the football conferences. Only way to change that- is the schedule them and beat them... only question is.... will they schedule the Big East?

Please put some respect on that name-it's the immortal Arnoldo Toro!
