Re: KAEO Keon Thompson
Seems odd to me that Frank would say something like that. He seems more like an "earn it" type coach, rather than just giving it to someone so early. Keon made a big jump from yr 1 to yr 2, what's to say he doesn't work on his outside shooting all off-season? In fairness, if you want to c...

Re: KAEO Keon Thompson
Isn't this true always? Can you give an example of a coach that continues to play athletes that go out and do what they want, regardless of the coaches instructions, and don't produce?minutefanjsf wrote: ↑Mon Mar 25, 2024 12:39 pm Frank seems, for the most part, to play guys who do what he asks as long as they are producing.

Re: Conference realignment
I would not assume anything for the moment. Common sense should prevail, but following common sense seems to be out right now (everywhere not just at Umass). I don't know if a more astute observation can be made about the current world environment. I am seeing things internally within my employer t...

Re: Game 31, 2023-24: A10 Tourney Quarters (3/14)
I'm just appreciative of the fact that we have something to be excited about and play for this late into the year. NCAA and NIT are both viable options at this point. When's the last time we could say that and seriously mean it? 10 years ago maybe...

Re: KAEO: Sean East
Yeah, absolutely. I was quite disappointed to see him go.InnervisionsUMASS wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 7:53 am That has been the scuttlebutt, but we really don't know. If the grades thing is true, it makes the SEC recognition he got even more impressive. That's a hard working kid right there, and a hell of a basketball player.

Re: 2018 Recruiting needs and potential recruits
My money is on Cross not coming back. To much downside for him to return. He's now a known commodity and really not much more to prove at the collegiate level.
Far more risk of him being injured if he comes back and ruining any longer term professional hoops plans.

Re: KAEO: Sean East
I think that it had to do more with his grades. If I remember correctly, he left UMass to go play at a community college. I think that he was JUCO player of the year or something along those lines before he went to Missouri...

It's hard to beat the same team twice in the same year.

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC
Bamford could also be playing the long game here with this increased investment. Basically showing other higher profile conferences that UMass is serious about athletics and is starting to put its money where its mouth is. Show some early success in MAC with hoops and football and then hope that the...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC
Somebody said this previously as well, and I agree. Frank knew that UMass was looking for a conference when he took the job. As long as he didn't have his head buried in the sand, he also knew what the available conference options were/are when he came on board. I doubt very much that Frank thought ...
