First, this article feels like a bit of a hit piece. I have never been much of a fan of the Ruiz spectacle (but have appreciated that his checks have cleared and he has appreciably helped Miami in the transition to the NIL era), but I think he got enough cash out of the SPAC process where his...

Bev’s choice was to be a rotational player on a P6 contender type team (in which case he would have stayed at Miami) or transfer to a mid major where he has a chance to be “the guy”. He was never going to be the guy at Miami… and - if I were coach - I wouldn’t want to rely on somebody with...

Well said… I spoke with an assistant coach about the unused scholarships years ago and I found his explanation to be very compelling… so I might disagree with the criticism but I do agree that nobody is perfect and nobody is beyond reproach. But to say his roster management is questionable...

Criticizing the roster management of the coach who took Miami to the school’s first EVER Elite 8 AND first EVER Final 4, with a resume of 4 sweet 16’s, 2 elite 8’s, and one final 4 in 12 years… STARTING under probation with scholarship reductions and then losing 2 full classes to a literal...

HE COULD NOT GET ACC QUALITY PLAYERS TO FILL THE AVAILABLE SCHOLARSHIPS BECAUSE A PROGRAM WITH NO HISTORY, MINIMAL FAN SUPPORT, RECENT NCAA PROBATION, AND MINIMAL RESOURCES UNDER ACTIVE FBI CRIMINAL INVESTIGATION WAS *SHOCKER* NOT AN ATTRACTIVE DESTINATION FOR ACC LEVEL TALENT. Seriously this...

You know I get that message boards are where people who couldn’t get hired as a film room assistant go to say they know more than the head coach… but it’s still disappointing to see. It’s stunning that with 4 sweet 16’s, 2 elite 8’s, and one final 4 in 12 years… STARTING under probation with...

It’s not blasphemy… for the most part it’s just a lack of knowledge and understanding of why and how things happened. The fact that you could mention Cross in a context that is even remotely critical or questioning of L is… really, really, strange? I mean… honestly…. take a second and think...

Very, very difficult to get a depth piece out of the portal. Guys are in the portal because they want to find a starting/featured role. Bev is exploring his options for PT and NIL. That’s it - nothing more, nothing less. What you’re describing applies more (in different terms) to the first...

Not necessarily. The portal is pretty much about NIL from here on out… and just because a guy goes into the portal doesn’t mean he’s leaving. The first few portal guys were after end of season evals. This is the first of the next wave (hope it’s the first and last but only time will tell).
