Because he’s a gigantic pussy.
I believe the game against GW (in washington DC, very close to Gonzaga HS) and the game in Reading, PA against Lasalle (a school located in north philadelphia) are directly related to the recruitment of 4 and 5 star players Chris Lykes (from Gonzaga) and Lonnie Walker (from Reading, PA).
This is correct.
GW looked terrible in the first half and kept it close in the 2nd. The line was 8.5 and kid from Miami made two free throws with about 10 seconds to go to put them up by 9
Coach L has recruited some serious athletes. And his whistle was as loud as ever today.
Coach L would have had a packed house at EBA...just sayin.
I knew that Joe. But if he wasn’t a gigantic pussy he’d put Mason on the schedule.

I forgot to go haze Larranaga.
I had a coat with FBI on it and a mike on a stick and I was just going to go slowly move it toward L's huddle until I was ejected.
Oh well, maybe when he's closer to getting busted.

I didn't realize the investigation was still in the works...

So, Coach L still can't solve a zone defense... "Zone defenses have flummoxed the Canes." Sounds like the same problem he had when he was up here.

The team has been very inconsistent offensively as their two super freshmen work their way into playing 25+ mins a game, with the 5'6 Lykes having all but overtaken the Senior Newton as the starting PG.
As with most Coach L teams, this team will likely still improve drastically between now and the ACC tournament. Especially because of the 2 freshmen.

Some days L can't even identify a zone, I'm told. Caputo really runs that team know, L just yells and whistles on the sidelines, mostly for theatrics.
I have heard the hammer is coming as well. This team is not doing well for one that was put together with the financial aid of adidas.
Allegedly.

Told ya so!

Summary - guy who was recorded referencing Miami/Coach L to get a recruit to Miami was actually scamming Adidas and pocketing the money - charges against him have been dropped since he never actually paid the recruit. Just made up that Miami needed money to get the recruit so he could get the payment.

They are all guilty and there is more information on the way.
Beyond that L and his crew are once again under-achieving on the court, toiling in eighth place in their league and once again out of the top 25.
What a horrible year for Larranaga and company.

Glad I was watching us blow the game against LaSalle and missed Miami blowing the game against Cuse.
Miami may actually have a younger team than Mason this year, at least amongst the top 8 - best player (who is a sophomore/future 1st round pick) is out for rest of regular season. Only senior that plays lost his job to a 5'6 freshman (whose frickin awesome).
Edit - they lost to ND yesterday too?! Ughhhh. Missed that driving back from Philly.
2nd Edit - wait, they BEAT ND - suck it Jollay! I can't read score results apparently...

I kind of like how Jollay essentially becomes DJ3 when discussing Miami.
Minus the spelling and grammatical errors, genetic inbreeding, and with a sense of humor of course.

Oh there's in-breeding.
Not Miami, but plenty of others. Included is our old recruit Tim Quartermann. Guess now we know why he picked LSU.

According to the article, Quarterman received money from the agency when he was already a Junior at LSU.
