...UMass athletics continues its seemingly endless backwards slide.

This sucks. Not sure what else to say.

Good thing we played that D3 game to get the squad prepared for today. Woof.

You’re anticipating a crowd?

Why are Jayden & Danny on the floor down 5 with 20 seconds left? Obviously need a quick bucket or a 3. Danny, ok, he can maybe create or dish. Need offense on the floor
That team is NOT that good. Honestly, we looked like shit

Just drop down to FCS. The experiment has failed.

Whoops wrong sport.

Slightly off-topic but perhaps DK should get a little damn respect for getting us to an NIT Final Four, NCAA Tournament, ranked as high as #12, good crowds at Mullins, helping create an organized, passionate student section (Mullins Militia), and having an all-time player who, IMO, should have his #3 retired.

People on this board still ignore the DK Era or trash it. How have we been since?????

2025 combined Umass football and basketball record as a member of the MAC: 0-14 (football total, hoops MAC record only). In other words, UMass did not beat a MAC opponent in football or basketball in 2025.

As the top spender?

No consequences?

How is this possible?

The MAC is a solid, physical league and our team is averse to contact. Clerc and Carbuccia are the only guys not afraid to mix it up.

Love Dk but unfortunately I think there were some shady things happening behind the scenes and they had no choice but to get rid of him. I don't personally care how he got guys, especially with NIL now, but he had one of the best recruiting classes ever and got fired the next year and two of them went on to be huge contributors to Houstons Final Four team in 2021.

and at the end of the day whatever DK did couldn't have been that bad if they let him come back to be an assistant for Frank. Heck - I wouldn't be pissed if he took over for Frank. I think Derek is arguably just as good a recruiter and the kids would actually enjoy playing for him.
