Historically, they received between $6-7 mil...

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
This is correct I assumed the timing I was reading was correct. Bergeron was on the scene well before he was hired. Tre and TJ signed in March of 2019. Bergeron was likely contacted in the fall of 2018 and the deal was already in motion for him and Tre to arrive in Amherst for 2019. The timing may ...

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
But the much bigger whiff is Buie. Buie cashed in on the COVID-bonus year, and has racked up over 2100 points in the process. Their Senior Night broadcast worked in a mention of how UMass pulled his offer. https://twitter.com/CurryHicksSage/status/1766992975643488681 Someone in UMassTwitter said th...

Re: NCAA Revenues and Expenses
The percentage listed for the subsidy from the university is an interesting statistic. It seems that that number is shrinking and Bamford has been telling the truth about it. basically the subsidy from student fees, waivers and university aid is keeping it so the athletic department does not lose 4...

Re: MAC Teams - Present and Future
I love that only the top 8 in the MAC make it. At least that makes the MAC regular season mean a little more. The A10 allowing all 15 teams to play in the tourney is so stupid. The A10 doesn’t realize it is sinking towards a one bid league. Not making top teams play the bottom lends itself more to ...

Re: A10 Standing/Seeding Changes Discussion
Do people know that our first game will be against a team that just hit 18 -3's and did not resemble the team we beat here earlier this year? And VCU will only have to beat a 12/13 seed on Wed.. You realize we defended the three and forced them to shoot inside the arc, right? They are a team that r...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC
I am just concerned about our basketball program, i look at the MAC schools and can't get excited over the schools we will be playing and future recruits will be doing the same. yes we will be competitive in the league, but the level of play and players will go down. This seemed very evident, when ...

Re: UMass is back in the MAC
My intent was not to come off as a jerk. When you included the Akron home attendance, I interpreted it as a comparison and I was offering some probable context for the significant difference. All good.. appreciate the follow up. I will note that it does seem most MAC mid-week games do tend to be la...

Re: A10 Standing/Seeding Changes Discussion
I gotta throw this out there. UMass was predicted what, 11th preseason in the A10? Nobody thought we'd be any good. Lot of locals thought Frank was too verbally tough on the players, too hard on them. Well it looks like he was right about getting the right kids who want to be better. And all their ...

Re: UMass is back in the MAC
Doesn't the MAC play a lot of football games during the mid week ? if so that would drive down home attendance and tailgating significantly as Amherst is so far away and difficult to get to. Based on this years schedule each team plays either 2 or 3 games on weeknights. When we were in the MAC befo...

Re: Coach in 2025-26?
patience... our choice was MAC, CUSA, or 1AA hoops.. Did you mean football or was that a slip? Because I would agree that MAC is essentially 1AA hoops. So, now we have an FBS team that should be 1AA and a basketball program that has significantly downgraded. I fear this will prove to be one of the ...

Re: 2024 Season
Just watched the interview with me OC Montgomery. He seems confident and enthusiastic. His idea to build around the quarterback and skill set of the playmakers is a nice change of pace. A little worrisome though, if the QBs don’t have similar skill sets. Hopefully the scheming would be similar for t...
