Senior Appreciation Thread

So obviously these next two games would be senior day for our team in a normal season. It’s a shame that they won’t get that experience this weekend. The accomplishments on the court have been incredible. All of them, from the Final 4 crew to the transfers, have been incredible stewards of the ...

Re: And so it begins...

There’s a part of me that knows that DPU’s location would make PM really consider that job offer. Yet there’s an even bigger part of me that believes PM picks up the phone only to make up leverage for a bidding war with other schools higher on his job list. That program is in need of a complete ...

I think I’ve heard that phrase before. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t.

The ironic thing is I think Porter was trying to call a timeout there but didn’t get the ref’s attention or so I seem to remember a story like that.

After this week, if I’m Porter Moser, I’m finding the furthest south school with an opening and going there regardless of conference affiliation. Locations with an average low temperature under 70 degrees need not apply

Re: Valparaiso Preview and Game Thread -- 2-17-2021

I get it that defense is this team's calling card, but the time for message sending via benching because someone (Kennedy, Kaifes, whoever) blows a defensive assignment (note the singular) is basically over. We're probably good enough to at worst eke out wins against SIU like we did tonight. That ...

Re: Drake Preview and Game Thread -- 2-14-2021

Unless I'm wrong on the tiebreaker, only thing that stands between us and a conference championship are three home games. Let's get it done.

Looks I was wrong on the tiebreaker (at least in terms of the #1 seed). If both teams win out, Matt Hackman says there is a modified MVC tiebreaker this ...

Re: And so it begins...

Why always me?

He's a national hoops writer that I follow on Twitter. I have no further info from that tweet other than pure speculation. Is it unpleasant to think of PM leaving? Sure, but this is a message board. What's the point if we can't wildly speculate?

In more happy national college ...

Re: And so it begins...

I think priority number 1 is to keep Krutwig and Williamson next year, which is probably the biggest plus in Valentine’s favor. That said, I think we should definitely kick the tires at the least regarding other coaches just to see what the market looks like for us. I think we’ll be a hot job for a ...

Re: And so it begins...

I think so? I’m pretty sure Pat Kraft was here when PM got his first extension after year 2.

Also I find it hard to believe Kraft would want to bring on Pitino lol
