I don't know if the grass is greener, but the dollars are.

So is CAAR still here?

I'll feel better once an extension is announced, but seems like it's trending in the right direction for us.

Want to keep your coaches? Get into a better conference, get that TV money and pay them what they're worth. Until then, any bit of sustained success will result in poaching by those who have that setup already. It's pretty simple. It's not the facilities, it's not the location, it's not the administration, it's the money and the lack of opportunity to really be great on a national stage. It's just a fact.

I wonder if Mike Kelly has thought of that brilliant idea.

I golf with guys that don’t read their email more than once a week.  My kids only read it once every other month.

I envy them

You can likely expect a decent VCU contingent in attendance.  VCU travels very well and even if it's just the NIT, I would expect a good group of people wearing Black and Gold come Sunday.

 

Gross

I will say, his resume is pretty awesome. Includes a stint as the HC of the Nigerian men's basketball team and an assistant with the Guangzhou Long-Lions...

I’m biased and a prisoner of the moment. But, why isn’t the Big 12 clamoring to lock this rivalry up into its league. 

Just curious, would we had done the same celebration had we lost last night?

Maybe some people online. But I live here, and most FSU fans I know are currently of the mind, "oh, look at that, USF is having a good year" instead of "we need to poach their coach!" FWIW.

That may be the sentiment of FSU fans at the moment, but if Leonard Hamilton really does exit after this season, I'm certain their administration will be interested in AAR.

Lol CAAR already racked up $50,000 in performance bonuses. Who ever would have thought USF's basketball coach would be cashing bonuses with 3 games to go in the regular season with the potential of cashing every single one remaining? 

His 5-figure bonus will be nothing compared to the extension and pay raise he's earning. 

I’m currently unable to access YouTube TV or CBS Sports (out of the country).

If anyone could share any alternative ways to stream the game, that would be much appreciated!

Good to know that "TwatterSuc30712" has got our backs.

Logic says it’s safe to assume that visit was scheduled a good while before all this started. 

Logic? You want to bring logic into a 3000+ page thread?!

very low, we so so irrelevant now that even BMM has better things to do than trash us.

I doubt that dork has many fun things going on in his life.

As long as this is the road to the Final Four, I am ok with it…

Road to the Final Four? I'll take the road back to the CBI at this point.

This is the coach USF needs.  Kelly wasn't fast enough for you, but he did this one RIGHT.

 

 

I'm with you. I'm spending too much time today learning about AAR, but I'm really liking this hire.

It's actually hilarious. I'm listening to Doug Gottleib's podcast and he interviewed AAR before they played Xavier.

His second coaching job was at GT under Gregory. At that job, he was pretty much an intern, simply rolling around a white board from place to place and tracking stats. Says it was a humbling experience to go from scouting and working directly with players at Murray State to his role at GT which sounds to me like a glorified student manager.

10 years later he is taking Gregory's old job...

Funny connection, he worked for Gregory at Georgia Tech about 10 years ago. 

Rothstein is as legit as they come, so I figured this deserved its own thread. Looks like MK found his man.

I know his record's not great, but I do know a local HS BB coach who thinks this is a great hire.

I'm going to Italy in early June. Can one of you guys text if we find out who the new coach is while I'm there?

Funny! The wife and I fly to Florence tomorrow. 

Thinking more about this hire, my concern is that Brey's struggle over the past 4 or 5 seasons directly coincides with the quick shift in the college landscape to transfer portal and the NIL.

Is he going to be able to adapt to turn us into a contender? I hope so. 

"We're going to be conducting a national search to find the best candidate!"
