    He didn't quit Villanova because he wanted to move. He quit because he didn't want to do the new college game.

    It seems as though it's up to the school to make the financial commitment that the AD says will bring the success he expects. Edit: FWIW, Cronin's buyout is $16 mil. It drops to $10 mil at some point in April.

    ACC basketball may be the canary in the coal mine on the effect of money flowing out of the ACC and maybe B12 and into the SEC and Big Ten.

    Under the radar guy who is going as well as he ever has -- Brad Brownell at Clemson. Making 3.5 this year, goes up 250K each year through 2029.

    "agreed" And then Michigan lays a big egg in the second half against MSU. NBD.

    Of course, my last bad feeling was at LSU, and they crushed them. If they play quality defense, that'll help.

    I got a bad feeling about Texas at SC-East.

    See what I mean about appearances? Miller's assistants take the fall and he walks away. And yet, he was alleged to have handled the Ayton recruitment himself. IIRC, it wasn't part of the NCAA case because the feds didn't use that information in court. If it had been a hit, he would have been charged, right?

    I mean, Bill Self isn't coming here. If he did, he'd bust the salary structure and the player budget, but he would win. Texas most likely will try to finesse this, because keeping up appearances is what they do best.

    Would they have signed off on Lute Olson? There are plenty of guys we can go through. But times have changed. Miller and Wade were both in the federal case, and the things they did (that we know of) are now permitted. In fact, it has to be done.

    After one season?
  12. BobInHouston
    When people became disappointed with who Texas brought in in the portal, perhaps they should look at it as having maxed out their budget. They took Kent and Larry because they best represented the kind of player who might be able to make the jump, because they didn't have to money that some of these other schools did. They couldn't get Toppin, and a couple of other guys with high price tags. They tried... just couldn't make a deal.

    That's shortsighted. But people who know me know I would say that.

    Kenpom's expected wins for Texas currently adds to 2.62, so it seems like you are right. Torvik is at 2.75.
  15. BobInHouston
    Noticed that. Without dragging RT into this thread, that's a factor in what the other teams in the SEC have to deal with.

    Seems like ISU has been in a funk for a while, mid-season slump maybe.

    I noticed there are only a handful teams on the Other at large list. I think that's due to the P5 playing extra conference games, keeping non-P5 teams from getting a resume-polishing win. I believe Lunardi still has 14 SEC teams in -- for that to happen, 12/13/14 would need to win multiple games in the SECT, knocking out higher seeds that are already in.

    The schedule lightens up after tonight. All the games can be won, but also lost.
  19. BobInHouston
    So this is Indiana football. They're fine for now. He's shown that he's a very good coach but he's a long way from being ready for the SEC.
  20. BobInHouston
    He's never recruited high D-I. I'd be shocked if Texas went for that.
  21. BobInHouston
    For something that is now allowed? That would be an interesting question.
  22. BobInHouston
    I think storming can be dangerous and I'm generally against it, but this is way over the top.
  23. BobInHouston
    I think this is correct. It would be great to win a game this week but if they don't, it's time to win beginning at South Carolina. Fortunately, the schedule actually lightens up at that point.
  24. BobInHouston
    Thing to remember: According to KenPom, Texas still has the toughest schedule in the SEC. That won't be going down this week. After this week, they'll be meeting teams at their level or worse.
  25. BobInHouston
    No reason to bail at the moment. It would be excellent if they can win one of these two home games.
