    Basketball Recruiting

    With what essentially amounts to wide open free agency every year, why not enter the portal after every season (unless you are already a starter at a top 10 program and making bank)? There is no downside for shopping yourself for more NIL dollars/more playing time every single year -- one of...

    New WBB coach

    I dont care what division you are coaching... 91-2 over three seasons is crazy. Giving a coach from a lower division worked out last year, lets hope it works out again and women's basketball keeps improving.

    Dan D’Antoni appointed as Marshall ambassador and technical advisor

    This makes a lot of sense actually... On multiple fronts... DD had two years left on his deal, rather than do a buyout give him an "advisory" role where he can shake hands with boosters and still be around the program while making some form of a salary. Speaking of boosters, DD has his wealthy...

    Any Rumors on Kim Caldwells Replacement?

    Find another winner... Doesn't matter if its DII, wherever, just bring in a coach that has won games as a head coach before.

    Dear God: Please let our men's major sports get better.

    I think 6 wins is definitely doable... But 8 is unlikely. I agree that we will be on the wrong end of Ohio State, VT and JMU... But you should add App in there too. They will be favorites to win the East. They killed us last year and they bring a lot back, way more than us. Georgia Southern...

    Dear God: Please let our men's major sports get better.

    This is an incredibly optimistic outlook... Not Perkins level, but very rosy. 8-4 in football next season would be an incredible year... We have question marks everywhere and our schedule is harder than last season in the non-conference. If Huff gets the team bowl eligible next year it will be...

    Caldwell’s Predecessor at Tennessee

    No one is saying you should be happy that we have to fill a coaching position... But you absolutely should be happy for her as a person. She did a great job for us, and now she is getting an opportunity in her career that is in the top 3-4 positions in her field. That is called being a good...

    Caldwell’s Predecessor at Tennessee

    Lets make this simple... You make $100k a year at your job, and you are really good at it... A much larger company, with more financial resources than your current company will ever have, comes to you and offers you $300k a year to do the same thing you are doing now. You take said new job...

    Caldwell to UT official

    Im in Knoxville currently for my dad's birthday/retirement/the eclipse... The tv news said last night that UT was aware of the $600,000 buyout and they will be paying it in full. As was pointed out above, this was a home run for Marshall... Kim gets hired, we pay her for one year, she takes our...

    Caldwell’s Predecessor at Tennessee

    Spot on... No way anyone can be mad that she took the job at UT... Top tier pay, incredible facilities, one of the top 3-4 programs in the country in terms of tradition, great recruiting area, etc. She will be able to look across the river and see the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame from her...

    Coach Jackson’s Staff

    I would assume he is keeping Justin Caldwell as long as Kim comes back next year... The rumor earlier this week was Cline was out and that CJ was bringing in an outside "top assistant" to take over the role he had when DD was head coach.

    Supposedly Kim Caldwell is …

    Sam is right... 5 years from now, there will be a P3 (the Pac12 and ACC will either be gone all together or be G5 level leagues). The SEC, Big10 and Big12 will all have 20-24 teams and they will basically play among themselves in football. They may break off into their own division, or they may...

    The Press Conference went well and most of Herd Nation are thrilled in your appointment

    Booger McFarland would be proud of this post... If only someone would have sent this to DD 15 years ago. Defense requires two things -- athleticism and willingness to defend. We have lacked one, or many times both, for years.

    The Press Conference went well and most of Herd Nation are thrilled in your appointment

    The most intriguing and refreshing part of that interview is where he says the team is going to have a renewed focus on defense... We are going to try to stop teams from scoring. What a novel idea. And three guards is a good start... We need at least that many.

    MU’s Smith says national search wasn’t needed for D’Antoni’s replacement

    The short answer is yes... But you need to give it a few weeks until CJ autographs a ball for him or smiles for a selfie at a random event. Then the Perkins train will be right back on track!... Gotta give the guy time to grieve the loss of DD before he can get back in the MU athletics dating game.

    Jacob Conner Enter the Portal

    I think we all saw this coming... One more current player probably headed there soon too... CJ is recruiting under the assumption that he has 6 guys on the roster right now from what I've been told.

    Supposedly Kim Caldwell is …

    If she is getting an interview, good for her, that is awesome. But I would think that Tennessee, which is absolutely desperate to get back to being a top-10 program, would want to poach a proven coach from another P5. My mom and dad have Lady Vols season tickets every year and that fanbase is...

    SHR. Man it’s getting great over at Crispi chicken

    A local political figure here in NC told me one time (after people were complaining about a new playground that was built inside a city park, and paid for with donated funds)... "I could stand on the corner handing out $100 bills, and inevitably someone would ask why it's not $200."

    SHR. Man it’s getting great over at Crispi chicken

    Not having ketchup is literally a 10-second fix when you do your food order for next week. It takes no time, effort, or planning - just have ketchup if people want it. As for going cashless, that's their decision and that is the way the world is going, whether old guys like us like it or not. I...

    Glad to see his legacy will not be tied to his record... Lol
