President Bush is an SMU guy or at least fan. Somehow (He is close friends with Dusty Baker and a few other baseball guys) he and Eric Musselman seem like an odd pairingbhoovy wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2024, 10:19 pmMaybe. But the fact that SMU went to their 10 biggest donors and got them to pony up (no pun intended) $1 billion for them to make the move to the ACC, since they agreed to the terms of not taking any tv revenue for like 8 or 9 years to be a part of the ACC, which probably won’t be around in a few years. So if they’re willing to put up that kind of money to be a part of a more superior conference, I’m sure they’ll plop down more to try and be as competitive in that new conference as they can be. And going after a higher profile coach would likely be on the agenda. Along with big NIL $$ to buy the best players they can.ToledoCat#3 wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2024, 10:11 pmWally World execs and owners have as deep a pockets as any if they decide to "invest" in Arky sports.

Dusty May is leaving FAU for Michigan.
At least he will not disgrace his program like Howard did.
Louisville is the next "plum job", supposedly, to be filled.
I wonder if the Pitino escort service is still going.

Just think... if SMU could've just waited a few decades, and then they could have paid their players when it was legal. They'd never would've had their program shut down!!spot2180 wrote: ↑March 25th, 2024, 6:27 amAnd if the ACC falls apart in the near future, those guys might be a bit upset.bhoovy wrote: ↑March 23rd, 2024, 10:19 pm

@PeteThamel
Sources: Rice is expected to hire former SMU coach Rob Lanier as the school’s new coach. He’s brought two different programs to the NCAA Tournament while coach at Siena and Georgia State.

surprising to me that former uw coach mike hopkins, the long time syracuse assistant, failed to bring a winning team to seattle. i thought at the time he was a solid hire.
sprinkle's name along with wvu's new coach, drake's devies, had been linked to oSu. will be interesting to see who the pokes now can pull to stillwater.
