Re: 2017-2018 Season

^ Getting rid of the banners and replacing them with those? No no no no no no no no no no. Please tell me its temporary. The garden figured out how to do a center court scoreboard and have banners. I miss the old Garden. I'm with you on this. I am actually quite put off. Basically ignores the histo...

I noticed this as well... stopped short of setting any unrealistic expectations for their program (i.e. national level), but that's probably best on his part. Wishing him and the program lots of luck to though! He should do well at that level!

Re: 2017 Recruiting needs and potential recruits

Chancellor Subbaswamy might not be here next year. In fact, I am betting he's gone. I wouldn't be surprised, but I hope he stays 10 more years. What he's done to elevate UMass has been terrific. He willed the Old Chapel restoration into existence, and it cost something like $20 million. That was th...

Re: Men's Basketball Excellence Fund

Just a thought on people still on the fence for buying Season Tickets.... I bought 1 season ticket knowing I won't be able to attend a lot of games I plan to take full advantage of pushing out tickets to future games I can attend with more than 1 ticket. I used the cost of the 2nd ticket as a donat...

Re: New UMass coach Matt McCall

I'm so glad we finally have a head coach! I was getting hella nervous... A few quick thoughts... If this search has taught me anything it's that patience goes a long way. As I tell my students, being diligent is far more useful than just finishing up quickly to "get it done". I'm proud of ...

Re: Candidates for 2017 UMass HC vacancy

We also don't know how his name was leaked as no others aside from shrewsberry were out there. This could be his people putting his name out there to pressure other potential employers or it could be real. We will know soon... Might be a done deal :? . "UMass targeting Chattanooga coach Matt M...

Re: Pat Kelsey

He never resigned from Winthrop. TO me he went to Amherst to check it out, said he'd be coach so they wouldn't go after anyone else. Probably thought he was going be our coach, but wasn't 100% sure. Or maybe coaches just don't resign when they get new jobs or it happens way after the fact. Even mor...

Not sure if this is the best place but UMass is slated to get a piece ($ 778,268) of the $200 million NCAA revenue distribution from a 2015 agreement... to be used for Student Athlete academic and welfare items. https://www.gannett-cdn.com/usatoday/editorial/sports/2017-ncaa-special-distribution-by-...

Re: YOUR NEW MENS HOOP COACH: PAT KELSEY

My son just called me from Vegas again with this. The Xavier coach is leaving to take the job at Indiana and Kelsey will take the Xavier job. Nothing can be announced today because they are still playing in the tournaments. Sounds realistic. Really sucks, Kelsey seemed great. If so, after finding K...

Re: Candidates for 2017 UMass HC vacancy

Per Jon Rothstein's Twitter: "BREAKING: LSU has hired VCU's Will Wade, per a source." Unfortunate for the A-10 and puts us in direct competition with a similar school for a HC.

Re: 1/29/17 poll - Fire DK?

Nothing is as good or as bad as it seems. However , for Derek's sake, I would rather him step down than be fired for his sake. I say this because he's family....not an outsider like ford. Never thought it would be this bad. They were more competitive in his first year when Travis emptied the cupboa...

Re: Search is on for a new D Coordintor

For what it's worth someone listed as "anonymous" posted on the UMass74 blog that an announcement would come Feb.1 and that the coach is "Young but ready".
