A few thoughts on a couple topics from above
TOPIC 1
…..I've heard every theory on Tom's departure. Some say he jumped off a sinking ship. Some say he really did just want to retire. Regardless, a couple people know the truth -- and, none of them are on this message board…….
I heard the admin wanted to mess with Tom’s WBB funding and allocate some of it elsewhere within athletics. Tom didn’t want to reduce the ladies scholarship money that close to the school year. He baled because of the principle. This is from some decent sources but I don’t claim to know for sure. BigIndians response was more appropriate than mine.
TOPIC 2
……Curious why is Gannon a great D2 job?
I don’t know the level of funding MBB gets at GU now but in the Reilly years I was always amazed they would have players from 5-8 different countries. 2014-2015 was 8 countries. Either John had great contacts abroad who were doing the international recruiting for him or he had a nice recruiting and scholarship budget. Seemed like money was there.
