^ I don't recall getting out toughed much last season, but I do remember lots of getting beat off the dribble and easy buckets. The epic fail in the A10 tournament was perhaps the worst example. Maybe that’s what Frank saw and maybe the new dudes will help. Maybe. But somebody besides Jayden needs t...

My favorite part of the new player announcement has to be the “two years of eligibility remaining” note because we now know that most players stick around in the same program for the length of their eligibility. We will be his 4th school, which meets the Matt Cross threshold, so that is impressive. ...

I wonder if I can get some crack sharp designer to replace the UMass Tower Library with the Prayer Tower at Oral Roberts on my collective sweatshirt? That’d be pretty cool. I wonder how many of those were actually sold. Mine is likely off to Goodwill.

To all folks talking about “greed” or “loyalty”. Stop it. Be frustrated all you want, but don’t be blind to the facts. The discourse surrounding the decisions of athletes to transfer for financial gain often overlooks crucial nuances. It is imperative to recognize that these players including Matt,...

I think Cross went to 3 or 4 different high schools and this would be his 4th college. He gave a thoughtful interview toward the end of last season where he explained the context of his reputation for moving (coaching changes etc.) and he said he felt he found a home at UMass with Frank being a grea...

^ pretty sure this was answered in one of his previous posts where he said roster construction is left entirely to the coaching staff… so it sounds like it was their decision. No, not really. It wasn’t really meaningfully answered. Deliberately vague as far as I am concerned. But beyond the obvious...

It’s all about the 1000% commitment!

We dont send out minutes. But I spend a few hours a week chatting with members on the phone, especially this time of year, so feel free to reach out anytime 413-687-5232. Thanks. Appreciate it. As Director, it’s a good thing to get yourself out there. Respect that. But it’d be important for some of...

^ I know Wisconsin has been mentioned and I think he’s visiting, but no shortage of people in Madison seem to think they lack adequate NIL coin in general for the program. One of their starters went to Kansas and another to Louisville, but evidently neither commanded off the chart coin. College hoop...

The meddling, self-promoting parent shit is the absolute worst. Tre’s mother was this to an extreme. For her part, Robert’s mom appeared to be all about Frank, UMass and the A10… until she wasn’t. Then, Davis was gone and the portal was all about rights and a fight against exploitation based on HER ...

^ Fascinating. I would be interested to hear more about that. I am a member but was not present for the meeting where that was discussed. Sounds like you missed a fairly consequential meeting. As a collective member, do you get minutes or any type of summary/recap? We dont send out minutes. But I s...

I'll have my secretary fax them over to you before end of business today. Thanks!! Love that you are on top of this, BUT who uses a fax anymore? :lol: In all seriousness, do members vote on these things? We’re all asked to contribute but the “benefits” or roles and responsibilities aren’t always as...
