Getting way ahead here, but I wonder if Bona could be a potential landing spot for Kimani Young if all these reports about Schmidt leaving are true. He does have NY connections, even though Olean NY is more Canada than it is NY.

I have to imagine Kimani is getting looks for a bunch of these openings.

Anyways, Schmidt to UMass seems like a good hire for them, better than I thought they were gonna do.

I'm surprised that UMass can pay a coach $1.8 mill./year as that is about double what the last coach made. In the 2020 FY (pre-COVID), UMass basketball sold ~$425k in tickets which is less than UMass men's hockey at $557k. Heck, UConn women's basketball has higher ticket revenue than all UMass sports combined.

UMass doesnt pretend to have football program so you need to subtract 11 billion

Lmaooo. There always seems to be conflicting reports with Blauds. And he also always plants the seeds to cover his tracks in the usual event where he’s incorrect. It’s a pretty good approach actually. Just tweet out every possible outcome so you can never be fully incorrect

Does Schmidt have a Pot smuggling felony?

You are correct.

Would be great for UMass and Northeast basketball in general if UMass ends up with Frank Martin.

Looks like Martin has all the leverage now.

Well, keep in mind that UMass is the defending national champions. They are very good hockey club.

Wasn’t Martin a finalist for us?
