Don’t really have a thread to post my thought.

But I wish we could ask Simpkins and get an honest answer the difference between working for DP and KE.

I want to know what he thinks both their strengths and weaknesses are.

"Javon Greene (McDonough, Ga.) hit a pair of clutch three-pointers down the stretch to threaten the Auburn lead. He connected from downtown at the 7:18 mark to make it a three-point affair, and after the Tiger lead swelled back to eight points, Greene drilled another triple with 2:28 left to play to make it a 55-52 contest.

The hero in Monday night's comeback win, Greene looked to repeat his performance against the nationally-ranked Tigers with one more look from beyond the arc to tie the game with 47 seconds remaining, but his shot fell just off target.

  • Greene finished with 15 points, three rebounds and a pair of steals."

"The University of Miami men’s basketball team dropped a 76-60 decision to Dayton Thursday afternoon in the first round of the ESPN Events Invitational."

"– The Hurricanes moved to 1-8 all-time against Dayton, including 0-1 at neutral sites and 0-1 in Larrañaga’s tenure.
Larrañaga, who entered the game with the ninth-most victories of any active Division I coach, is now 673-466 in 38 years as a head coach, including 203-132 in 11 seasons at Miami."

"– The last time Miami lost its opening matchup of a multi-game event was 11/28/13, when it fell to George Washington, 71-63, in overtime in the Wooden Legacy in Anaheim, Calif.
– This marked just the 14th time in Larrañaga’s 11-year tenure Miami lost to a team with a sub-.500 record, including only the second time it has done so in non-conference play."

"UNI men's basketball's Goanar Mar will be stepping away from athletics.

Lingering injuries played a huge role in the decision for Mar, who transferred to UNI last season."

"Mar will continue at UNI to finish his bachelor's degree in liberal studies. Mar played in 15 games for the Panthers in the 2020-21 season, averaging 1.6 points per game. He finished the season with 33 rebounds."

Makes me kind of sad. He showed so much promise as a freshman, I thought he'd be an all conference player ( or very close to it). I guess it was injuries that did him in. Met him briefly in my 1 game experience as one of Coach Paulson's "sideline" coaches. Impressive young man.

On the other hand, he'll be getting his degree, which in the long run will be helpful in offering him some career options to chasing a basketball career.

He’s gonna be looking for work this off-season I’d imagine.

In hindsight, it is a real shame that Tony Shaver didn't get a chance to finish out coaching Nathan Knight's senior season. He might have had them dancing for the first time.

As someone that grew up in Williamsburg, that move felt similar to the disrespect paid to Phil Martelli on his way out the door. Granted, I am super biased to like Coach Shaver.

The only victory occurred yesterday at home vs. winless D-III Mary Baldwin.

Agreed, I don’t know if firing him was the wrong move given his history of mediocrity, but I think he can win the CAA that year with the roster he had.

Fischer has gotten worse each season as he’s gotten more of his guys in. Going to be a complete rebuild down in Williamsburg, which will probably be tough given the academic standards.

Shaver had those W+M teams humming back in the glory days of the CAA. Unbelievable that he never got them to a tournament after Mason, vcu, and ODU left.

Just looked at the schedule - four of the losses are American, Norfolk St, Howard, and Radford, three of those by double digits. That's what you get for looking at Paulsen ball and saying "I want some of that."
