… Pretty sure bring an assistant basketball coach is all about future earnings as a HC with short term pains (paying their dues). 

Someone said George took a pay cut, soooo.

Certainly not an even split….

Of course not.  But what ratio would make sense?

HC 450

Staff 150, 120, 100, 50, 30 ??

That's a pretty solid deal.

Not for the assistants, imo.  5 guys split the same amount as the HC

Nate and Bryan who?  finally time to move on?

No one else cares about history?  Nearly three weeks later and there are no other comments?

I wish I had preserved some of my early data dumps.  UB92 is probably glad I've lost that info.  DocCas86, beware, copy your efforts.

... The rules are very grey these days.

... like when to use gray VS grey?

I imagine the rules are clearer to those actively involved with the process.  Most of the fanbase (me especially) is too far removed to know the answer.

...  Interesting question is if this counts as their one time transfer since they had a signed NLI. 

Similar question then... can you "burn a" redshirt year before your first practice?

Since spots are so hard to find in April, why would any of them have decided to voluntarily bail on their spots at UB for the upcoming season? Without some major reasoning behind their decisions?

I'm guessing they wanted to leave long ago, isn't that what the parents are upset with? - asks the non-tweeter

Lamar wanna eventually go to ole Miss and do nothing?  Come here first...

Calling the program toxic without any real details what may/may not have been going on is crazy. …

Wasn’t that baked in to the original post though “from the outside looking in”?   While I agree with your comment, I don’t understand the opposition to the original post.

With a ridiculously short bench, they made it to Cleveland and to overtime against the number one seed. Something was working there.

Home cooking, high heels?

Better marketing?  Lol, I nearly spit out my drink.

I’m not so sure.  Well, for next season, sure… they need a team.  But, I feel the coaches need a little time together to understand what type of team they really want to have, before recruiting to that style. So, the following season may still take more time?!

I’m sure title 9 is a factor also 

Fwiw, I know more former D1 women’s hockey players than I know former D1 men’s hockey players.  1-0 lol

Yeah this was his first 3 in the Akron game. His defender was in the paint helping off of him and he ends up missing the shot. It was a recurring theme by the end of the season. If he’s not on-ball and can’t stretch the D you’re just playing 4 v 5. I do think whitesell tried to rein him in, he stopped starting and his minutes were significantly reduced for parts of the season. He has his strengths and in the right role I’m sure he will be productive but I don’t envision him taking well to a smaller role here and I think it’s best for everyone to get a clean start.

Also as a general comment on the Whitesell era look at that spacing. It’s poor offense and poor roster construction. Hoping Halcovage takes a more balanced approach to recruiting more polished shot makers as well as a few upside athletes. It felt like we were just always swinging on upside and not developing them enough once they got on campus

This is the kind of post game analysis we could use more of.  Much more helpful than a horizontal line.

Agreed, but want to say that is why it is in the bonus portion of the contract.

I think we need to devote @Jeseph and the need for him to walk his dog more to its own thread.

CSA and ASPCA really need to sit down and have a talk

shoulda walked the dog last week

Thank you for the prompt fix.

Have we lost access to the original archived site, or is it just me?
