That didn't take long after their announcement to "pull back" from closing a few days ago.

It does make you wonder how institutions...

[Bballfan]

Surprised he didn't go D1 to get some NIL money to pay for all that artwork. Crazy....

[Bballfan]

At least Young and Curry have long-term connections to those schools. I can sort of understand that....

[Bballfan]

I heard Springfield Missouri got hit pretty hard early morning. Sorry to hear that. Hopefully not too much damage....

[Bballfan]

I saw this. Sacramento State is becoming such a joke, and it appears all they care about is making headlines. Style over substance. Does anybody thing...

[Bballfan]

Yep. Another one bites the dust. They were D2 for 20+ years. Looks like their athletics were pretty bad. Did have football that couldn't win a game....

The GLVC has been down in women's basketball the last few years. I don't see anything changing this upcoming season. Maybe some lesser team will rise...

[Bballfan]

Lewis women hired their coach. Just reading his hiring announcement looks like they are more interested in style versus substance. I would say Drury...

[Bballfan]

Correct. In the end they fail anyhow as a short term cash infusion does nothing. You have to return a school to break even at least. Can't continue...

[Bballfan]

Not the first time I have heard a story like this. Then in the end they are woefully short of the money they needed to stay in business....

Interesting article. I have to say, less athletes have commitment to a school, and I think that has a discouraging impact on the fans. If you are a...

Even bigger in football. The Ferris State Quarterback transferred to Ole Miss. Going from D2 to a Power 4 and one of the top two football conferences...

Thankfully the portal is closing soon....putting an end to this college free agent nonsense....

[Bballfan]

Yes. My thought was only the competition level is so much different in the MEC and then the PSAC is a step up above from that. If I had to rate in terms...

[Bballfan]

With the tournament realignment, I would expect the matchups with Mountain East or PSAC teams to fade away. I actually like matchips with the GLIAC or...

Sonny Vaccaro. The sleaziest of the sleaziest. So much illegal stuff back then. Now that would all be legal sadly.

He is portrayed in...

Missouri Western coach now at Morehead State is really living it up. Morehead State has 15 players in the transfer. Like...how is that even possible?...

[Bballfan]

Agreed. Nobody cares. Athletes are just a bunch of mercenaries now. If she has success at IUP and still has some eligibility left she will just transfer...

[Bballfan]

This is actually her FOURTH school. IUPUI (now IUI to Tarleton State to Mount Vernon Naz to IUP).

So from D1 to NAIA to D2. I guess if...
