He’ll land a good broadcasting gig. His being a UK star and some minimal coaching success has for some reason earned him cred in the world of college hoops.

In today’s age of whacko law suits, you can bet the farm if Dagler got stiffed on an NIL deal we’d have been hit with a suit.

It would not surprise me if Ford is retained. I would like to know what this plan is going forward. My guess would be more foreign guys if we’re short in the NIL account. I can’t believe he’ll be able to sell the whales to cough up big $$’s. The stench of last season and the trainwreck this year are not so easily forgotten.

I read an article about DePaul and Ohio St firing their coaches in season. The reason cited was to hit the ground running come early March in hiring their new coach to give them a head start on mining the portal. The article also cited that a few other schools may follow their lead but mentioned no names. Now if SLU takes its sweet time to replace Travis we may find ourselves at the end of the buffet line to pick over the scraps. If the decision has been made that Ford’s gone I don’t see a good reason to keep him around thru season’s end. It would serve notice to the coaching community that we’re definitely on the hunt. Who knows it might cause a guy like Mack to express some interest. It might even get active coaches to give us a call. I doubt coaches would make these type of calls while Ford’s still employed where his firing is pure speculation. My big fear with our admin is they’ll take their time to make any decision on Ford, ie we’re reviewing it. And then take more time looking for his replacement. We’ve got to act quicker than that. First, to figure out who on our roster will stay or will enter the portal. Roster construction is important, duh, and will take a new guy some time to figure it out. The current admin doesn’t fill me with confidence they’ll do whatever’s necessary to land us a promising HC.

The buck stops with Ford plain and simple.

Stops these days means Stop hitting 3’s against our D. VCU scored 49 points against DU and won. Against us 95. Hello, how can we be this bad on D?

D is pathetic. TO’s are inexcusable. We suck.

Rick Majerus( Defense and Rebounds!

We’re just trading baskets. Dammit, Ford, where is our D?

Our D is as bad as it gets.

Why did Thames try and go hero?

Medley finally makes something happen on the inside. Nice pass kid.

Gone cold.

Stop the fouls.

Stops. We need stops. STOPS!

I can’t drink this much.

And it’s becoming uh oh time.

2 stupid TO’s back to back. This is crap ball.

That actually looked like a play w/ TJ.

Are u kidding me!

Parker en fuego!

TO’s continue to haunt us. Take care of the rock.

Tears?
