Re: Where do we go from here?

Not going to mention specific players but need this type of attitude from our coaching staff the rest of the season and also today at 7 too

Re: 354th in NET Rankings

I have no inside knowledge of any contract language, but I wonder if Drew and the players agreed to some type of guaranteed playing time? Hypothetically, a SEC school offers Player A $500k. Sounds great but all these guys can read the depth chart so they know they'll probably never leave the bench ...

Re: Northern Iowa Preview and Game Thread -- 11/25/2025

Given the financial commitment made to these employees that we used to call student athletes, this could have serious ramifications and ripple effect up the chain. Like past Drew and towards the AD, Kelly, up to Dr. Reed. It's not the dark days between '85 through the early Porter Moser years where ...

Re: Colorado State Preview and Game Thread -- 11/16/2025

I don't know what to say. It's like Drew and the staff forgot how to coach. It looked like the past 2 seasons he's grown up as a coach, and now we look almost worse than his second season? How could this happen?

Re: 2025 Acrisure Series

The pairings came out, and we got totally shafted. Northern Iowa and either San Jose St. or Tulsa (again). No P6 schools. Early games on Tuesday and Wednesday in Palm Springs before Thanksgiving. I wonder what the deal was to sign up for this. Some of these tournaments are starting to pay out NIL ...

Re: 2025-26 Schedule

Maybe Porter throws us a bone for a game @OU?

HAHAHAHAHA

One thing that VCU does is put a home and home in their coach's buyout so when their coach leaves, they'll get a P5 game at home. I don't know if we did that with Porter, but I would hope that a similar VCU type clause is in Drew's ...
