Any chance?? 🤷♂️🤷♀️ https://iuhoosiers.com/sports/womens-basketball/roster/coaches/rhet-wierzba/3425

6 years ago...And he still has eligibility...? Only in CBB 2023. 😵

Thing here is, Iona (pre-Pitino at least) wasn't a promotion over Fairleigh Dickinson. Not sure how IU gets alot more $$ for coaches (rich Catholic alumni? 😁) My only past knowledge of FDU was seeing them beat Hipsher's team for 7th place in a tournament in Honolulu in 2000, and that the Adidas 3-Star camp used to be held there -- Sonny Vaccaro & Co.

We will see... hopefully sooner, rather than later. 😁

Yes. I have to think the list is through 2022-23, because last time I looked (earlier this season) Enrique was not listed. 👍

Waiting for LeBron, in ...1...2... 🤔

Freeman is already the all-time rebounding record holder?? I've been trying to find the numbers. I have doubts that he has broken the record (nearly 1300) in just 3 years. Can someone post an updated list, please?

Ohio High School State Tournaments 2023

What's the news on Luke Skaljac of Brecksville? How was his junior season. He was maybe the first '24 player Groce offered. -
Mahalo ME 102. I'm impressed if only by your cut & paste skills! Not sure how you managed that without it all disappearing into thin air multiple times, as seems to happen when I compose over two paras. My best case scenario would be to get a top assistant from one of those always-ranked mid-major programs like UWGB, Missouri State, Gonzaga, etc., or a top young up-and-coming coach from that area. I did mention earlier Chelsea Lyles the Assoc HC to Karl Smesko at FGCU. She's going to be a great head coach some day and we'd might as well get her first. I expect Megan Vogel to take over for Borseth in a couple years. How about the coach at Cleveland State? She came in and moved her team way up the ranks very quickly. One hope I would have is that the new coach maintain the strategic style that Jodi Kest brought that everybody needs to be a shooter and the first player with an open 3-pointer takes it. That's the way the game has developed and how mid-majors beat P-5s.

Or when Charles arrived in town! lol (but only slightly) 😒

WAC regular season champs UVU starts NIT play at New Mexico tonight. Imagine if Aziz had stayed and we had a rim protector averaging nearly 3 blocks per game! https://www.abqjournal.com/2581868/nit-basketball-new-mexico-men-get-the-home-court-but-face-tall-order-in-utah-valley.html?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook#Echobox=1678898424 -
I mentioned Lanae a few weeks ago. She was probably the most heavily recruited player in the Akron area by Melissa Jackson. Signed with MTSU, played in just 6 games for nationally ranked team. She was offered by KSU and Miami from the MAC and a few mid-majors (Duquesne, St. Bonaventure, etc.). Don't know if there is any coach left behind who's recruiting. When Kest left, Jackson continued recruiting.

As a tournament ticket-holder I can't disagree. And BTW, someone tell John Groce we still have one spot left for next December! 😃 https://collegehoopstoday.com/index.php/rothstein-files/field-for-2023-diamond-head-classic-nearly-set/

Well, that beats any newspaper in town. 🤷♂️

Keeping up with the Three D's (Dambrot, Dru & Duquesne)

Dukes open the CBI as the 5 seed vs Rice. Looking at the bracket they should expect to make at least the semifinals! Good luck to our second favorite coach! 😊 -
Had to review the story! Senderoff basically got what John Loyer got from Hughins at Cincinnati -- the convenient target treatment. Kelvin Sampson was the real responsible party. And...hmmm, whatever happened to him 🤔😉 https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=3086559

What is the MAC'S history on NIT bids? Don't we nearly always get 2 teams (or more) in? I'm ready to go play Cincinnati or another #1/2 seed. Add to our resume'.
-
The logic here is that if other schools start offering Jamisyn, that's a sign Faith is gone. If Faith doesn't short circuit it earlier by announcing the portal. I'm frustrated that Faith seemed to be misused this year as almost exclusively a 3-point shooter. She was so strong on the inside in HS.
-
If I'm not mistaken I was listening to an Akron radio broadcast on FB Live and there was a PSA or non-profit "ad" that Enrique voiced. Not sure if that constitutes NIL income. All that I've seen at ANY mid-major school is athletes with sites selling hoodies, t-shirts and PJs with their logo/face or similar. Greg Tribble's was nice, and < $20.
-
Kent was and is the better team. They defeated Toledo with the same force they defeated Akron -- overwhelming numbers of excellent players. They lose 3 or 4 starters next season? The MAC will be up for grabs again!
-
If there is a mass exodus, this might be the first sign. Jamisyn Stinson is a top 5-10 junior in Ohio and was offered by Melissa a year ago. No other offers appeared after that. Still looks like just Akron's offer on the table.
