Dead on accurate when you said âthis kind of negativity on all college sports chatâ.
Honestly, I would like to have seen a little more enthusiasm from the players when the coach enthusiastically greeted each player as the enter the tunnel after a win. (that may be on coach too?)
somethings just not feeling right

Ronâs record so far over his 5 years is sub par. Allowing Ron to coach his 5th year was questionable by Hill. Message board readers who donât expect some fans to post their negative opinions about a coach with his record is asinine. Ron has not competed in CUSA yet. His record speaks for itself.
And regarding message board comments on players⌠comments on a playerâs talents is fair game in college sports. If a player sucks and is getting too many minutes, a message board is the place for other fans to air their grievances. If a player has a bad game, takes a poor shot and loses the game, etc⌠message board. A player may be a great kid, may make straight As, work his ass off in practice⌠college athletics is a performance âjobâ. This is entertainment for the fans. This isnât like high school where fans donât matter.

If Ron didnât get extended when he did, would he still be here this year? Next year? What doeseth thou jury sayeth?
Awl man
No itâs not. The dude has had 150 chances to prove heâs the guy. Heâs failed more than half the time.
It doesnât take six years to be a winner.

Extensions are typically about recruiting. When Judy let Bobby go into his final year it was almost unheard of. Keeping a coach with 3/4 yrs under contract is pretty standard.
I donât think the contract has anything to do if he goes or stays. The guarantee portion of his contract is basically the same amount as an ACC assistant. It would be almost entirely or completely offset by his new salary.
What was the terminal date of the original contract?
Original deal would have ended this year. It was. A 5 year contract.
With NIL and the constant turnover in the transfer portal, I really donât think extensions should ever be given out for recruiting reasons going forward.

Certainly as college basketball evolves with the portal that practice may evolve or change.
Iâm already expecting an extension followed by transfers out a couple weeks later.
