Conte has been dead for hoops for decades. When BC was in the Big East it was UCONN's home court in Boston. BC is going to need a hell of a run to restore any type of interest in that program and it's hard to see how that happens.

Solid guard play and defense will take you a long way in the Tourney. The question is whether or not we have the shooters. imho

Which is exactly the point!

I continue to wonder if the elite academics like BC, Stanford, Northwestern, etc. stay with big time athletics. The professional model does not fit with their academic mission. Financial demands are only going to increase in order to be competitive. The Ivies got it right years ago.

I don't know what the legal ramifications are, but I would tell this "friend" to contact the court and admit they forgot. I wouldn't let it pass in the hopes it all slips between the cracks.

In what universe does the AD at Northwestern move on to Syracuse?

I assume that's sarcasm....

I think that's right.

My prediction, it's only a matter of time before we see some players opt out of the CFP. Without meaningful monetary incentives to play in those games, why would some top NFL prospects on the cusp of big paydays take the chance? A different situation, but we already saw a coach leave his CFP...

LOL! Yes, but that's very detailed due diligence, most would not have detected that......

I do remember that!

You will not find a tougher player both physically and mentally than the Dove. I suspect training in the Israeli military had something to do with that. Absolutely loved his game.

Interestingly, Ward made another hiring mistake at Michigan with a guy who appears to have some real personal issues. My guess is he's very much a hands off administrator.

I don't know how the process works to hire these coaches. I know agencies are use and I suspect over used. But, when I was making critical hires in business I spent a lot of time with candidates and especially the leading candidate. A lot of time..... You only truly get to know someone if...

Yeah, it's hard to say where this season will go with the roster makeover, but this guy is not Diaco. Ward didn't stub his toe on that hire, he cut his foot off. Diaco's recruiting was beyond wierd. At one point we may have been among the slowest teams in the nation across both the BCS and FCS.
