muffet mcgraw has stepped down as the head coach for the notre dame women, after 33 years - two ncaa championships, 2001 and 2018. her retirement follows the worst record of her career this year, 13-18 with no tournament bid.

she's a good coach and seems to be a good person.

 

Eddie Sutton passed away tonight, 84 y/o.

Won lots of games, had some well-publicized struggles, both professionally at UK and personally at Oklahoma St.

By most accounts, his players really loved him. RIP.

 

dean smith was ahead of his time on everything, including inflated food prices. this is cool.

 

was a great coach, built that arizona program from dirt. unfortunate for him that his rise in the late 80s/early 90s paralleled better programs at duke, carolina, kansas, and kentucky.

he was in poor health when he retired, i thought - glad he made it another 10+ years, hopefully they were good ones. RIP

 

mirrors the sentiment of iverson's HOF speech - was recruited by everyone in two sports, and they all gave up on him after the assault conviction from a bowling alley brawl. thompson did not, and molded him into the all-time great he became.

ewing, zo, dikembe, and iverson is quite a legacy, to go with a championship. also, 97% graduation rate for his players over 27 seasons.

 

he's resigned (via a fat ass settlement), hopefully never to see the light of day again. meaning he'll probably end up as an assistant on an nba bench somewhere in the next year or two before taking over another college program that just doesn't care.

 

LOL bye Greg Marshall you ****!

The only good thing about Wichita State leaving the MVC was not having him show up at Redbird Arena anymore....always knew he was horrible.

For real, every time WS played us I spent most of the game yelling at him to get off the court. I swear he tried to trip one of our players once.

 

auburn's self-imposed a postseason ban for this year, essentially confirming rumors that the ncaa has something big on them.

bruce pearl, kelvin sampson, rick pitino, etc, etc. what do these ****ing moronic ADs and/or presidents think they're getting. people do not change. and they're all millionaires, while the kids these coaches use and abuse are left as footnotes.

 

Well I hope Ohio State is at least paying us well for this game.

 

former wofford, now virginia tech coach mike young adds another incredible win to his record, knocking off #3 nova today. beat michigan state around this time last year with vatech, too.

he's a genius, and once he gets a few recruiting classes in, that's going to be a sweet 16 program.

 

bill walton commentating remotely is somehow even more chaotic than bill walton commentating on-site.
