LOL perhaps.

To play along, which job would KR take if offered both? Gannon and Clarion are very different schools.

Clarion without question has a much nicer facility. But, his resources would likely be much better in Erie.

The Clarion job will come with less pressure -- and they have a loaded freshmen class (about to be sophomores). The three who left this week likely realized they got passed by heading in to next year.

If Clarion has a bunch of guys who can pass by Jarmon, I'm impressed.

Gannon ui supposedly remodeling and won't even be used next season. Gannon will be playing at a temporary location. I would assume they'd try to work out a deal with the Prep Events Center.

Cold war going after the same target whose season just recently ended.

We've reached the end of Thursday and I haven't seen any news on coaching changes. Does that mean Gannon and Clarion are going to stay the course?

Just did some digging... Reilly was announced as not returning March 29 and KJ was introduced April 30. How in the world do you complete a college coaching search in 4 weeks? Post it, let it run, narrow applicants, interview, assume at least a 2nd interview, offer and announce. 4 weeks just seems super quick. (Unless they had prospects prior to announcement of Reilly going).

The privates have a massive advantage in regard to speed of hiring. They don't have to go through all the union mandatory job posting time, etc.

Any good AD -- especially in this position likely knowing KJ would be canned for months -- should have a short list of targets ready to go. Some of said targets could still be playing, however.

I really thought we were going to see the announcement this past Monday.

I would think if GU does it, it'll be at least after basketball season (tourney) is over, if not after school is out. Unfortunately I just don't think it's going to happen

You can if it’s the Super Bowl and the team being ****ed over is from Philadelphia.
>:-(

just saying... the refs didn't help blow a 10-pt lead. It was a crap call at the end, but there were many other things that led to that point. (not a KC fan or anti-Philly... just don't like when refs get blamed for ONE call when many things happened prior to that to affect the score). Now, if it was a clean, back and forth, TD for TD game and that call is made... totally on the refs!

I was turned off by D1 years ago and gave up my Pitt season tickets when Jamie was run off.

I did enjoy watching them hang 99 on Jimmy B. I never could stand that guy.

This is largely a mercenary team so I don't know how sustainable winning will be. Capel did slowly get them to gel and they can be a dangerous group.

But, give me D2 any day of the week.

Boeheim has a tremendous record, but for a long time has tended to run off his mouth. He's always had it in for the Big 10 and ran them down at the beginning of this season, so I enjoyed it when a couple of weeks later the Illini whacked Sorry-excuse by 30.

Gee, it's not like the Iggles couldn't overcome that by, I don't know, making sure their quarterback doesn't turn a fumble into a scoop-and-score ... or, the Iggles could;ve really have really tried something radical and, I don't know, tried harder to stop Patrick Mahomes in the second half?

Getting back on topic (sort of), I'm seeing that quite a bit across college hoops and not just in the PSAC. It seems like in every Big 12 game (or at least the ones I've seen involving TCU, which is in my neck of the woods), refs tend to call games tighter in the second half than in the first. It doesn't exactly make for an enthralling product at the end of the day, though; it just becomes too much of a beating.

I share the feeling. As I have gotten older, I Have 2 Pee more often, too.

You can hail all you want if you enjoy watching a guy that recruits and plays crooks and criminals. No thanks!
