    Wild who pops their head up again for stories like this after having not posted on the basketball forum for how long?

    What does me not posting regularly on the site in general for almost a year have to do with juwan Howard physically assaulting an opposing coach. Been pretty busy at work for a bit. Cut down on about everything but work and golf. 

  2. If the school has a zero tolerance policy toward violence then Howard has to go. Simple as that. By definition, striking someone with a “nigga slap” is violence and by not firing Howard you are by definition having tolerance toward violence. 
     

    An interesting question for Pancho would be “what if Gard or the Wisconsin assistant “nigga slapped” Howard. What should happen then?”

  3. Serious question… with the NIL stuff why do I see so much about people going somewhere because of “bagmen”? Are you guys equating NIL and bagmen or are you talking about bagmen in the traditional sense of paying players under the table?  Why would anyone do that under new guidelines? Under the table can’t be written off as a business expense. It makes no sense anymore.

    I don't think there's a doubt the Venables can coach defense the point is that there will be a drop off from Clemson. 

    Drop off from #1 to #2 or #5 isn’t that far to fall and gives them the chance to win it all.

    I looked at this quickly so numbers might be kind of off. 

    OU composite 100 defensive recruits under Venables (last 5 seasons)-

    "11 (1)

    '10 (2)

    '09 (5)

    '08 (1)

    '07 (1)

    Clemson's composite 100 defensive recruits under Venables (last 5 seasons)-

    '22 (4)

    '21 (3)

    '20 (6)

    '19 (1)

    '18 (3) 

    Outside of the '09 cycle, Venables wasn't exactly raking in a bunch of high profile recruits at OU. 

    And his defenses ranked 2, 13, and 9 in those years. Which shows he developed the talent he had very well and in the absence of development he had them playing very sound football. That still signals that he has a chance to be a good HC, especially given those are the qualities the LR and BS has when they were hired. 
     

    OU is probably going to have a pretty salty defense. It’s the offense that will determine if they win 10-13 games a year or 7-9 games a year.

  6. Urban to ND is the only thing that doesn’t destroy the big 12. If they take fickell then cincy is good enough to take Campbell. Which means ISU takes chizik and the block head man becomes ku’s bitch. If KU get out of the cellar the big12 is worse than the wac.

    The OU boards love them some Shane Beamer. 

    That seems like it would be a terrible hire and about best case scenario for Texas fans. So please do it OU. 

    He’s got goiter in his blood. They crave it.

    It’s been confirmed everywhere. 

    My connection seemed to think there was still conversation. He was a little slow to the news and I’m sure I’m about number 10,000 on his call list about this stuff.

    I guarantee stoops watches every game. Have some common connections with him, one prominent, and he very much has his thumb on the pulse of the program. It was just hinted to me that the ink isn’t dry yet but it has been signaled that riley has a problem with NIL at OU. Boosters are trying to make personnel decisions based on who they are paying to go to OU. Specifically the rat man. I responded that if someone doesn’t get the boosters in their place then OU will become UT quickly and with less to sell. I haven’t heard anything more. 

    Just got a call from big money. Lincoln is 100% out.

    I wouldn't expect any SEC school to listen to a thing the NCAA says at this point.

    From what I’ve read, it sounds like the ncaa is only going to govern the smaller divisions and maybe the small conferences. I think the P5 is literally going to be handed the authority to throw the rule book out the window.

    Is LSU still dealing with the off the field stuff? Potential penalties could very well be influencing any potential coach.

    Are we sure this is going to matter in a year? The ncaa proposed a new constitution that is going to likely give all of the power to the power conferences, including the power to punish and set rules for p5 schools. I’m honestly shocked we don’t hear more about this development as it could completely change who gets punished and what punishments might be.

    That’s 8m times the number of years remaining on his contract

    Oh… I misread the article out yesterday. That’s just for him to buy out. $70M is guaranteed in a firing. That being said, I’m April next year a school can hire him for 8M buyout and it goes to 6M in 2023. Still kind of a “we like you but wouldn’t be made if you left… voluntarily.”

  14. I like the matchup of KU v. Zags but only because I think our guards are better. We’ll get abused by timme and Chet but at least we have the horses ok the perimeter to shoot 3s this year. I think the 3 ball is the only way to beat the zags. 
     

    Cronjn said before the game that UCLA needs to figure it out quick. Then was asked if they had a chance against Gonzaga and he said “no”.
