From an A10 school to head to Arizona, Ohio State, Providence, & Wake Forest. I mean that's not different than Tennessee, Indiana & Virginia Tech which was 75% of our last 4 coaches when the new league formed.

Quote from: wadesworld on Today at 02:11:22 PMEh.  Our fanbase sucks but we're in a conference with Providence, Creighton, St. John's, Seton Hall, and UCONN.  I'd rank them in that order (worst to first), with Marquette coming next.  Not sure Georgetown or DePaul have fanbases, so don't know how to rank those two.

St. John's doesn't belong there. Their fans are fairweather AF, they were loud last year but this year are talking more about Tyler Kolek than anyone on their own team. Other than these last two years, their fanbase basically didn't exist.

PC, Creighton, and UConn have great fanbases. Don't know that Providence's have the best understanding of the modern game, but they are certainly vocal. X & Butler both have good fanbases, but probably smaller than the others you list.

Thanks for taking the time to dig deeper on Chase as it's been a point of discussion.

Truly eye opening just how horrendous he's been in conference play - kind of defies explanation.

A bad team certainly isn't going to win many conference games when your pre-season first team guy is playing like one of the worst players in the country.

Coupled with awful shooting percentages, his turnovers (for a non-point guard) are momentum killers.

Quote from: swoopem on Today at 03:48:21 PMI agree, going into this season I got the impression that Shaka was a lifer. That's why I'm a big Shaka guy and I'm rooting for him.

But if he runs this team back without any additional transfers. His seat should be scorching going into next year

Yeah, that's totally fair.  Ultimately, he has to win and it's unlikely to expect that to happen next season unless he adds at least two high-quality transfers.

The best part is that his new 'crew' doesn't even like him.

Look, qualified vs absolute immunity is hard to comprehend when youre too busy smelling your own crap.

Edit: this is about Yale grads. This is about JD being an idiot.

Quote from: Billy Hoyle on Today at 03:31:21 PMDon't worry, according to JD, "no lube this time, Mr. President," Vance, the ICE officer, has "absolute immunity" and was just doing his job, murdering a woman who was dropping her 6-year-old off at school, a well-known terroristic activity.

Maybe an issue with the job he's being asked to do JD.
