He said that he’d likely take this year off and explore possible avenues of working in television as a college basketball analyst. Quote

BIG BILL FAN Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 9 hours ago, aj_arete said: That's offensive. What makes Kim English stand out is that he's articulate and knows how to set a vision. I can definitely see him excelling in an interview, even if he was white. This is so ignorant when looking at the landscape of college basketball where the coaching profession is hardly representative of the talent pool (that is the number of blacks who played college basketball exceeds the number of whites at the Division I level). Having said that, there are plenty of people who know how to excel on the interview, but then flop on the job. I'll agree that the jury is still out on whether English will be a highly effective coach, so we'll just have to wait and see. Saying he’s articulate is offensive… you act surprised by that… Quote

That’s surprising about Grant not having 1 NCAA bid in his tenure. Given the institutional and community support that Dayton provides, that’s simply not good enough. Quote

That would be my only reason to not advocate firing Grant, if I were a SVU fan. He had it clicking at the highest level and who knows what could've happened. Gotta hand it to them they're passionate.

HoosierPal Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Never mind. Not a confirmed hire. Only a wish list. Can't figure out how to delete it. Sorry for posting. Quote
HoosierPal Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 You got 1 in 15 chance of a bid in the A10 this season. 8 out of 14 in the Big 10. Quote
