Re: Game 20, 2023-24: at Saint Louis (1/27)

Thought the board would have been all over it but Ford got fired a month ago. Kind of flew under the radar. I only knew because the specs guy from Indiana st is transferring there

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

It's more than just money, it's the new mindset of players. Look at duke, they just lost like 8 guys. You can't tell me that isn't gobs of cash down there to pay. It's the lack of wanting to compete, grass is always greener, thinking they are better than they are, etc. Wait until the inevitable exp...

Re: UMass transfer portal news - 2024

BC got crushed by the portal. I think they’ve lost their top 4 guards

Re: KAEO: John Calipari

I'm going to guess that this was very mutual. Wouldn't be surprised if the AD told him to look for other jobs. The reasoning about his close relationship with a booster at Arkansas doesn't really add up for me. He had unlimited resources at Kentucky, not sure what a close relationship with a booster...

Re: KAEO Josh Cohen

In terms of talent the MAC thing I think is showing that its blown out of proportion on both sides. Umass didn't get hit that bad considering Cohen is really showing himself to be a mercenary and on the other hand the football team just lost their two top running backs and I think 3 defensive starte...

Re: 2024 NCAA Tournament Discussion

Duke/NC State was worst officiated game of the tourney. Review after review after review. Tons of missed calls or bad calls. Just an awful second half to watch.

One thing the tourney does still show is that post play is indeed not dead. Edey, DJ Burns, and Clingan were beasts.

It only took 1 week of the transfer season to reaffirm my dying interest is, in fact, real.

Re: How former UMass players have fared after entering the portal

I watched the last couple UK games and his defense has been atrocious. Maybe he’s hurt or worn out but it’s been bad regardless. Defining his career is interesting. He’s a big contributor to a ranked team but he’s really not that much more skilled than he was as a freshman. He’s dropped some weight ...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

Bamford is going to have to earn his paycheck and start scheduling a better OOC schedule. Playing the local teams is nice and all but if we wish to continue on an upward trajectory we shouldn't be scheduling multiple America East teams. At the same time, MAC roads games are going to be more costly a...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

. Certainly i understand the logic above But here it is. what makes us think we will be at the top of the MAC in football? there seems to an assumption that the football team is going to be competitive right out of the gate. our history at this level says otherwise. recruiting good talent in both s...

Re: First reaction: UMass to the MAC

Not really upset about moving to a different conference…if it wasn’t the MAC. Zero interest in any of those teams. For football, it’s easily the least exciting travel schedule possible. The directional schools and Akron in December. No thanks

Re: Game 27, 2023-24: St. Bonaventure (2/24)

Bonnie’s did a good job of disrupting the flex screens and defending the post. Umass was so cold from 3 it just never opened up.

Re: KAEO: John Calipari

Another bad loss from Kentucky last night at LSU. Calls for Cals job are getting stronger and stronger down there. I guess he only talks to the media at post game now and takes just a couple questions. His contract is enormous but the SEC schools seemingly never care
