Well, we know Matta's not going anywhere this year, so there goes our chance at hiring Archie Miller :(

South Carolina can't score, so I don't see Duke having a ton of trouble with them.
Looks like they are going 75+ points in the first round

2016- Brad Underwood takes the head coaching job at Oklahoma State and his objective was to rebuild and challenge for a National Championship.

2017- Brad Underwood leaves Oklahoma State and takes the job at Illinois and his objective is to rebuild the program and challenge for a National Championship.

Always cracks me up when I read shit like this. Do people not understand their school/program is a stepping stone school? And what is the coach going to say? "I'm here at Oklahoma state to have a good year and then get paid more somewhere else with a little more tradition!"

Underwood also only made 1M at OSU and will make at least 3X that at Illinois. Money talks. OSU shouldn't be cheap and they might've kept him. Sounds like their AD was a complete ass hole and his arrogance cost them another coach.

Jawun Evans going pro and hiring an agent, one of probably many departures for OSU.

Texas A&M Freshman Robert Williams (projected top 5) pick is returning for his Sophomore year. Dumb.

Looks like running Georgetown's program into the ground finally caught up to JTIII, since he seems to be out. Nepotism only can endure so much failure, apparently.

Jay Williams is on PTI replacing Wilbon and he dug into him a good bit.

Yet rumors swirling that Patrick Ewing is a name being considered. Isn't that kind of going right back to the same well that has been a disaster for the last decade?

Their desperation to get big recruits back to Georgetown?

Dude has spent a lot of time coaching on NBA sideline.

Personally, I don't really care.

If I'm a Georgetown fan, I want a young coach who has shown he can recruit and who will change the culture. Patrick Ewing would be a continuance of the culture and he's got no coaching experience. Sure, maybe he can get some recruits. How is that working for Kevin Ollie at Connecticut?

That's a much better hire for IU than Alford, imo.
