It was the game right after the Tennessee disaster and Joe Harris got concussed like 35 seconds after tip.
I thought we were done for and then they went nuts and won in Tallahassee which seemed to be like our Kyrptonite.

A thrilled Digger still sounds so sleepy. The Digger-Knight combo hits like a dose of melatonin. My criteria for good commentators is āgets excited about the game of basketball and tries to get you, the fan, excited too.ā

Thatās correct. And IMac cost us the game at the FT line. And Tony cost us the game by not calling timeout before that nails on a chalkboard pass by Kihei.
And Reece cost us the game by passing it to Kihei.
And the ref who called the foul on Sheds cost us the game.
And the starting lineup didnāt hit a single three that game while Furman hit 10.

Remember, UVA hired Tony Bennett after his worst season at WSU, 17-16. Itās important to step back and see the whole forest with these coaches, not get overly caught up in how they fare this one season.

Who are some ābuy lowā candidates? The most extreme version that comes to my mind is Shaheen Holloway; under-resourced to the point that itās a point of discussion by all the coaches in your league for a weekā¦he should be trying to get out of there (though might be hard for him sentimentally).

I mean you want me to be rational. Next you are going to tell me the new coach will have connection to players in the portal Ive never heard of and that none of my wishlist will come true.
Nah Im firing these coaches off the list after one game

My extreme version is I want to see Mike Young with a $5 million budget. I think heās a really good coach but I get that such a hire would bring negative energy to our program. And I want to see Porter Moser with DMV talent.

Is Moser simply a better looking Mike Young?
Moser gives me Brad Brownell vibes now. A better recruiter at Oklahoma than Brownell at Clemson though. And more accomplished in his Loyola tenure
Except heās 69. Fantastic number, too old for a coach you want to build your program around.
Moser isnāt a buy after a dip candidate though. Unless the dip is his entire tenure at Oklahoma till this season. Heās still pretty high on my list though.

Oh God Ohio State fans are catching on to Jerrod Calhoun now and talk about his Youngstown state turnaround as notable (on top of having been on Hugginsā Cincinatti staff and being a Cleveland native)ā¦ so thatās 3 schools now that have a natural connection to him that might be open (OSU WVU and Cincy).

Funny I was with an Youngstown State assistant after our game Saturday night. He had been at the STAB game before
Coincidence?

UVA is a much better job than any of those 3 schools. I also donāt think any of those jobs will open unless maybe WVU is someone can poach DeVries.

Waitā¦ Tony missed the tourney with a Senior PG (Rochestie), an NBA center (Baynes), and a Splash Brother?
Ugh, never shouldāve hired himā¦
