Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

More news, and not the good kind. It looks like Ethan Morton is headed to Colorado State. This one doesn't bother me that much as he did nothing in 4 years at Purdue. Highly recruited out of high school, but he never panned out at Purdue. We can do better than him. Of course, right now we have nobo...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

There was a time when those “thousands of hours of free labor” were considered extra-curricular activities. At what point will high schooll players want to get paid too? How many extra curriculars did you do in college that required dozens of hours a week of your time, and made buckets of money for...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

Hopefully the fact that the football conferences flamed out early shows the committee that those teams are way over-rated and should not be in because they are from a big conference. Unfortunately, the fix is in for those conferences because that's where the money and power are centralized.

Re: Coach in 2025-26?

Yeah, if Kentucky can come up with his buyout: $33,000,000, then maybe that could happen.

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

You can salary cap NIL or whatever but that won't change the money. The "Wizard of Westwood", John Wooden's UCLA teams had the best teams money could buy in the 60'sand 70's. School's with big donors will pay their kids somehow, someway. The key is stopping the transfer merry-go-round, and...

Re: MAC Teams - Present and Future

Insider, in regards to your comment "Umass will have the best facilities and most investment in the MAC". Having a million dollar house in a neighborhood made up of $400K houses is never a good investment. Also would you be upset having a team that is talented enough to be in the NIT ? Th...

Re: Game 31, 2023-24: VCU (A10 Quarters, 3/14)

Took the kids out of school to the game. Poor parenting on my part but priorities called. Great seats. At times team played really well and my 6 yr old was driving the VCU fans near us batty which earned him extra snacks. Some VCU fans were quite classless and trashy compared to other A10 schools b...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

The trick to getting those games is that you have to get good enough that you don't hurt their NET or RPI. Of course, how do you get good enough, in the various ranking systems, without getting those games?
