Also, how the **** does Romar still have a job at UW? He hasn't made the NCAAs since Fred's first year here, and he won 2 conference games this year with the #1 NBA prospect. Going with Cuonzo and the Porters to Mizzou would be smart.
We will be down next year, for our standards, yes. but Mizzou is in the sewer. We get 2 games with them the next 2 years as they are "re-building" and we should probably win both of them.All while they have a highly-regarded coach, and potentially a top-level recruit. Not terrible situation, and possibility for a win.well that sucks since we just signed to play Mizzou.
Just going to leave this here.
Tony Bennett to Illini for massive money 4.8 mil rumor.

Martin to Mizzou, 7 years for little over 21 million:
It is done.Based on what? That would be way out-performing anything in his coaching history.
also, I looked up his Wikipedia page and it lists him as the current coach at Missouri, so that must be a done deal
Read the post again. He would be leaving his God Father to go play for his dad.Romar is Porter's God Father. I don't see him leaving with Martin to Mizzou if Romar isn't going to Mizzou.
I really think our team is going to exceed expectations next year. Young, dumb mistakes will abound but I really think they win some games on just pure talent., especially seeing the development of Donovan Jackson this year.We will be down next year, for our standards, yes. but Mizzou is in the sewer.

I completely agree, I think we will be right around the bubble all year. Winning some games we probably shouldn't, as well as dropping some that we probably shouldn't. I am not sold on them being a complete re-build, especially depending on what is being brought in via the JuCo or Grad Transfer route.I really think our team is going to exceed expectations next year.

For a guy that has a third as many NCAA tourney wins as Steve Prohm. That's just stupid.
He'd also recruit Wisconsin even more.Tony Bennett at Illinois would bring the conference to an even slower pace, gross. Not sure he'd take it even with that amount of money being thrown around.

Well I didn't see Washington firing Romar this year. Him getting fired changes everything.Read the post again. He would be leaving his God Father to go play for his dad.
I can't wait for the Prohm rumors for about every vacant job. Already heard at least one for Illinois.
