what is going on here?

Is he gonna have the backing of the local AAU/grassroots folks? The same folks who also backed Norm Roberts, but has been basically viewed us as invisible for the better part of two decades.

Has been at Yale for 20 seasons. If he was a hot commodity, he'd be poached by now, although I understand schools having a bias against Ivy League coaches.
Again, he has one big NCAA Tournament win over Baylor (a game that was played in Providence, which is not too far from Yale), and nothing else. It seems like the powers that be have fallen too much in love with isolated results in the crapshoot that is the NCAA Tournament. Give me the guy who has more sustained success every time, even if he hasn't gone far in the Tournament, because if he has that kind of success here, I believe that run will come eventually.

W-T-F. Prefer not to discuss. This is negligent.[/quote]
Maybe, Cragg is a robot built by Coach K, and sent here ala 'Ash' of "Alien" to further destroy our program.

I'm laughing out loud at some of these comments this morning, but I know I should actually be crying.
There's no freaking way Cragg took this job thinking this was his pool of candidates. It's like they take $100,000 away from his budget with each passing day. At this rate just give the job to Kevin Boyle or John Buck. At least they'll be able to fill out some of the roster.

If true, what a colossal waste of cool technology. We didn't need any help destroying this program. We've been doing that all on our own since the day we went with Mike Jarvis over Jay Wright.
