DooleyBull06 Posted March 28, 2019 Author Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) Luckily this list is massive. But if Tennessee comes calling you don’t say no. Today has been the worst. Edited March 28, 2019 by DooleyBull06 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UB92 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 This is what happens. It is what it is. That's life when you are a successful program. TN is the bluest of blue blood. I doubt FLJ will get the TN job -- that list is very long. PSU, on the other hand, seems more reasonable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zigo230 Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Jeez, Taste some success and instead of continuing to build... these coaches just bail for more money and higher profile programs. What happened to loving UB, the best people-best program, etc.? Anyway, half-kidding here. It's just upsetting to have our basketball program gutted in a day... but they will be fine in the long run.

It's based on hope, which is based on the fact that the program has been climbing since the Reggie days, and athletics had trended upwards since Warde Manuel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players are going to leave, and players are going to de-commit most likely. And the program is back to the early 2000's again. Unless by some miracle all of the players stay and all of the recruits stay, then MAYBE. But, it probably is not happening.

I hope too, but I don't quite know where this is going to lead at this point. Sadly, I'm not feeling too optimistic at this very moment, and that wasn't how I felt 4 years ago.

OH Yeah!!! They will be fine like Canisius and Niagara. Two programs in total shambles with the best players transferring, coaches fired,coaches in total burnout and crumbling fan bases!!!!!

If you can't see the difference between UB and Canisius and Niagara, it's not worth even having the discussion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have lost coaches mainly because they failed and never got us over the hump to be competitive or one of the better teams in the MAC. That’s a big difference than where we are now with a HC candidate in place like Bryan Hodgson who has been a big part of that success. We will falll back into the also ran program and our fan base will be in shambles les like Niagara and Canisius and like so many other programs. Decisions are made by individuals that think they have the intelligence to make decisions but are lacking in common sense and listening to the fans who have been thru ups and downs for more years than some of these people have been on this earth.

MillenniumBull Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 We will be ok because the conference we reside in. When push comes to shove, even the most plainly adequate coach can out recruit the rest of the MAC. Best education, best/biggest city. Best media attention (sadly), UB basketball both men’s and women’s is the premier destination for MAC level talent. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
