How willing will our fans be to pony up and contribute to the NIL collective to keep Miles Rubin on the program? Highly likely their will be play for pay options on the table for him at the conclusion of this season if he does not enter the NBA draft. It sucks but that is what it has come to. We better pay if we want him to stay. |

We better pay if we want him to stay. Let’s see Miles averaging more than 16 mins a game before we start talking NBA draft declarations. I agree he will certainly be tempted by the portal, but think he needs quite a bit more polish (and some muscle) before we start getting further than that. |

The real question is who were the scouts at the last game there to watch, looked to be three from what I could see |

Miles has a way to go but he is certainly gonna get interest in the transfer portal if he goes that route, he has potential as a Power 5 player. In addition to Miles, Loyola will need NIL money to replace by my count 4 current starters (depending on how you classify them). No doubt they will be in the portal for 2 guards, a wing, and at least 1 big, and who knows who else. |

Bumping this for fun, just to see how thoughts might’ve changed two months later. For the record, I still stand by all of these. |

I will stand by my analysis of Drew and say that two things can be true at the same time. 1) Ramblers are winning games. 2) Doing it without a good game coach. |

Just curious, 0101, do you also stand by your prediction of last February: Quote: "I will make a prediction...over the next 3 seasons, we do not achieve a better than .500 record in the A10 and Coach V[alentine] is let go at that time." I should point out that your prediction became mathematically impossible after the St. Joe's game. But don't let that change your mind. |

Drew has been managing the lineups very well in conference play. Recognizing matchups, hot hands, etc. See, e.g., last game when Dolan saw a big decrease in minutes because he'd have trouble matching up vs SJU guards and Mwamba saw an increase to bother Reynolds. I've had my doubts last year and early this year. But you can't deny he's been a great coach during conference play. (Well, you can, but you'd be wrong.) |
