Pontoon boat in the Portage Lakes maybe?

Home and home. The return trip will be on the Allegheny

There's a guy who plays at the Flora Bama at Orange Beach named Alabama Big Earl. I've seen him live. He has a song called Poontang On The Pontoon. Maybe he could have a post game concert.

Going to play for Dru?

My guess is Ohio State. Meechie Johnson just transferred back from South Carolina, and that's LeBron's unofficial son.

He is heading for the Dukes to play for Dru.  Lebron plays one more year and then joins the Dukes staff as an assistant coach to coach his son and build a dynasty in Pittsburgh.  You heard it here first.

I'm curious for those who cheered against KD, will you support Dru?

I was among those who were upset with the way Dambrot left. I did not root for him at Duquesne.

Having said that, KD is still a fellow Zip alumnus who seems to care about the university. I am rooting for him in his future endeavors.

 

When it comes to Dru. Why exactly would any Zips fan not root for him? Seriously! Please give me one reason.

I am waiting...

I don't understand why anyone would root against KD so I'm the wrong person to ask 😂

Some of the most unwatchable offensive Zips basketball ever.

Huggins told Dennison to not name him head coach. Peggy Elliot insisted because of diversity. Super nice guy but a lousy head coach.

Props to Duquesne on including Akron

KD would be a fascinating choice. He'd surely keep Groce around, which is priority #1. 

[Captain Kangaroo]

Hope the takes his sh!tty Arby’s A with him. Good riddance.

[LZIp]

Yay, more turnover which leads to more turnover which leads to more turnover. Never ending cycle of suck and embarrassment continues on.

[akzipper]

Duquesne just fell to 0-5.

 

Guess KD picked he right time to bail. 

 

I feel bad for Dru, but I find it hilarious that people in Pittsburgh thought they were guaranteed to bring in Bronny James and become a national powerhouse. 😂

Yeah, no ill will for Dru at all, but this is what happens when nepotism wins out.

It's a really tough situation when your coach retires right after you have your best season in decades. There are two options. One is to promote within hoping that you can keep the core players in tact, but likely settling for a less qualified candidate than you could get from a national search. The other option is to hire an external candidate and face a complete rebuild as the bulk of the players will likely transfer. Killing really any momentum of building off the success.
