So, is Amadou in the portal?

The remarks on Shaka are spot on.

Double, recover. The others aren't beating you 4 on 3.

What are we doing here?

POS POTUS.

Where are his defenders here on Scoop? We know there are some.

I get you want to " protect " your kid, but FFS that was stupid. She needs to STFU.  Really.

Is this a real thing we're supposed to care about ... what a player's mom says on social media? This is Message Board Geniuses material.

If anything... This article was a little nice to Royce, Nigel, and Adrien.

I can't wait to see more minutes from Michael Phillips and Josh Clark

Hmm, other jobs have job performance reviews.
What is his criteria for doing a good job?
RGV, W-L record, attendance level, revenue generated?

Her kid had an injury setback, but has demonstrated he has no business playing in the BE.  None. 

But, it's just another reflection of what SS must be telling his players and their families.

Bad look from miss jones. Which is hard to do for her #respectfully

Rakim Chaney from Valpo would be an upgrade over multiple players on our current team. Not crazy about him being in the same class as Nigel though.

I would say there's almost a zero chance Shaka gets fired this season. That's not say I don't think he should be. We're in as bad a spot, if not worse, than when he was hired 5 years ago. The results aren't because of dumb luck. They are 100% a reflection of his arrogance. I can't comprehend those who reference past years as a reason to give him time. The past was pre-NIL/Rev-Share boom, and the game has completely changed.

With that being said. I would not be surprised if the boosters start applying major pressure, based off what I've heard. What that entails, idk. But I have it on good authority his seat is heating up.

The one scenario I can see where change occurs:

Boosters tell him next year is do or die. But the boosters are reluctant to pledge additional funds outside the rev-share allotment, given the financial icompetency he deployed for this season. Shaka knows the roster needs a complete overhaul, which is not possible given the scholarship situation, his attachment to the players, and lack of extra NIL. Starts planning an exit to another school, to save himself from being fired. Or he simply retires, as he wants no part of this version of college basketball.
