Toledo goes to Michigan in their annual visit to the NIT

This is part of the reason why we had to pull the trigger. We had to strike while our name brand is still warm. I have no problem becoming a school that produces coaches. Give me young and ambitious over old and looking to coast into retirement.

What I don’t get and understand is why can’t the bulls exist with or despite or along with the bills? I’m a down stater and I don’t understand why it’s the bills and nothing else. Makes no sense to me. This isn’t giants/jets or Mets/Yankees. From what it sounds like is that Buffalonians can only invest in one.

Not a bad matchup. If they can matchup up against trace Jackson Davis and Schifino then they got a shot. Indiana will only go far of Schifino is a difference maker.

Really want to see them go up against Arizona. That’s a championship quality game in a regional final.

Fair enough. Even though had he stayed he most likely would’ve averaged more in both categories here. But considering his start, solid bench number production and still has more years left to play. Great for him. Let’s not talk about Mballa lol

I almost feel bad for Toledo. Like are they ever gonna win it all lol

This one sucks bc he’s also a local product. He was one of the players that I felt was not properly developed while he was here for 2! years. Always thought one way or the other he wasn’t gonna be around for 4 years.

I’ll be following. I’m always interested to see how our players fare elsewhere. Do they do better? Which is an indictment on us. Or worse? Always interesting. Just look at Skogman. Grass wasn’t greener this season.

To this point…western Kentucky fired their coach. And he’s highly regarded as a coach and recruiter.

Claxton played for Jay Wright at Hofstra. We all know what Jay Wright accomplished at Nova.

Thank you for answering. And I see no flaws in your reasoning. Valid points. Especially points 2, 3 and 5. Those above him wearing a bama shirt are valid reasons as to why we should look elsewhere. No doubt Hodgson comes with baggage. But if donors are fronting 500k to boot Whitesell, they may get their wish here?

Of the names mentioned. In no order, we should be hot on Speedy Claxton, Adam Cohen, Hodgson and Dunleavy. Perhaps poke around GMac and Paulus.

Just asking this as a question…are people not allowed to make a mistake and mature from it? Or is he just gonna be disregarded bc of that? As some have said, maybe he’s matured and gain wisdom and hindsight. Especially seeing what a cluster F of media relations that was in Bama this season.

He’s also being rumored for the Norte dame job. Going to the MAC will be a lateral move for him. His stock is too high for the MAC right now. He’s gotta cash in.

Wish him well in furthering his education and career. Just wasn’t a fan of the iso ball. Iso ball was a constant theme under Whitesell. Hopefully that changes now that he’s gone. As for Powell, he seemed to always be at the helm of very chaotic basketball. Not knocking the person. You more than me got to know the young man. Wish him well in life. Just wasn’t a fan of his ball playing.

They’ve become public enemy number 1. They have adopted an us against the world mentality.

Peace out. Won’t miss you. I’ve felt no connection to this squad, aside from a few players. I feel like they all lack on court chemistry. Him being at the center of it. Bye.

Pros for Hodgson: Donor enthusiasm and dollars. NIL boost. Great for recruiting. You hope through the controversy at bama this season that he’s gained wisdom and perspective. Is his history that egregious that we don’t want him?

I like this pool of candidates. I’m hungry, we are hungry. Seems like the AD is hungry. Now get me a hungry coach.

All I will say is this, I touched on it in another post…seems like we are taking a dip in the deep end of the pool in regards to possible candidates. I like that. Let’s get someone with big ambition and drive. Who is in touch with modern athletes and the landscape of college sports. Go Bulls!

Exactly. The pieces are in place lol

ESPN+ uses homer crews for games. Quality isn’t gonna be the best when you have a sideline reporter who is a second year broadcast major lol

Stands look decently packed tonight. I think it’s was because yesterday was mostly afternoon games on a Thursday. Of course having an all Ohio semi doesn’t hurt. I don’t mind the tournament in Cleveland. It’s the perfect travel situation.

His style is definitely more mid major suited imo. Guard oriented and pressing. Cause chaos and get up and down the floor. Not real good half court offense. Might actually work with the roster we have lol
