Sounds like the team quit on him.

Coach Murray is in a better place.

Yikes

Coach Murray is in a better place.

He saw the light. El Ellis unfortunately jumped on a sinking ship, sad because we could have used his ball handling.

Maybe Pitino comes back? lol!

 

[HooperScooper]

So I guess it wasn't the fault of the assistant coaches last year?

You know who has to be laughing his off? Dino Gaudio.

 

[UconnU]

@NJHoops thoughts on this?

 

[LIuconn]

when do they announce pitino

Watched some of last game these kids are arguing with each other on the court and in the huddle. A huge sign he lost them.

Glad we got Coach Murray imagine being in the middle of this cluster!

His ability to get out early, even if Mack "fired" his assistants speaks well of Murray's understanding of program momentum.

The return of Rick Pitino?

LoL

Williams looked like he didn’t listen to a thing last night, he just seemed to do whatever he wanted taking 3s and yelling at players for missing defensive assignments. No one putting the hammer down on him at all.

Couldn’t happen to a better bunch of Scumbags. Place was, is and always will be a cesspool. Congrats ACC on adding this fine educational institution to your league. They have really contributed to your reputation.

Someone on the UofL board suggested Hurley as a candidate hahahah.

1) UConn is and always will be a better program

2) Who in their right mind wants to go into that dumpster fire of a school and athletics department? Nothing but corruption and cheating

 

[wheelerdog]

Isn't it nice to not have these problems in Storrs?

I agree we’re a better program. But Louisville, even with their problems, is a heck of a coaching job. They pay, they’re in a good conference, top notch facilities, good brand, deep bench of wealthy boo$Ters and an active loyal fanbase. I hope they don’t take a look at Kimani.

Pitino is being texted the new restaurant alarm code as we speak

They're too big for Kimani. They will probably stick to their cheating ways and get Wade lmao

I do wonder if Mack could end up at Butler though...

No way Louisville job is better than LSU

I agree, I don't see a program like Louisville hiring a first time head coach. I don't think they want to take a chance.

Kimani would be a fool to walk into that toxic environment

 

[BuffaloHusky]

I think Mack at Butler is a great call. I also wouldn’t be surprised with Pitino getting his old job back.

 

[LIuconn]

What’s his buyout?
Taking a mid major to the 2nd weekend is equal to a $10m payout/firing from a P5. Insane cash

With the way the SEC is making money from football, you may be right. But Louisville is still close to a blue blood program, LSU cannot even sniff their tournament accolades.

It just depends on if a coach wants to be at a football first school, and that will always be the case in the SEC except for Kentucky

$12M but there's been people on twitter saying they may try to fire him with cause and escape the buyout...not sure if they read the news recently but it doesn't seem to work out that well.....

I only meant that Louisville is barely relevant in a barely relevant league and LSU can definitely pay better.
