Yes, Ham left for the Wizards where, in his one year NBA career, he went 19-63. But, he had been at UM for 9 seasons by then, so he was more than ready to move on (I'm sure in part because he was frustrated at how hard it was to recruit at UM). Sure, Self is a great coach. He turned Oral...

Some programs "sell themselves." Bill Self is not a dynamic recruiter in my opinion but, he doesn't need to be. The tradition and consistent Big XII championships sell KU hoops. I'm not sure at all that Self would succeed big-time here at Miami. Leonard Hamilton was hired here with the hope he...

I'm not advocating we hire Rick either. But ... over a 45 year sample, we can definitely say with confidence that recruiting top HS players to the U is a very hard task. Rick, if nothing else, is a proven recruiter.

Difference between Pitino and Donovan is that Rick might likely be a lot more receptive to an offer. If ur worried about his/our "reputation" all I can say is that those inclined to think badly of UM already do. If u read other message boards, Lonnie W "went from a Villanova 'lean' to MIami...

It is what it is. Do you think Pitino, even with this administration, could win big here? Might be fun to find out.

I give Coach great credit for his work here at UM. That "double" ACC championship he pulled off, I never thought I'd ever see accomplished. It should be pointed out, though, that Coach Ham did win (actually share) a Big East title in a conference that, at that time, rivaled the ACC in quality...

I'd say he's a very solid game day coach and, most often, an uninspiring recruiter.

Is Gak not available? SIAP. With what you listed. Concerns would be: (1) In Italy, it seemed Beverly wasn't as far along in his development as I had hoped (that may change before Louisville); and (2) if you're playing a guard-heavy lineup, can Miller run the court well enough?

Then ... someone with the ability, pls give Coach L the third degree as to why no waiver request for Brooks? Certainly, L has to see more clearly than anyone how much we need the guy THIS season.

Needs a season off to mend fully from injury? Academics? These are two possibilities that you could speculate about. Cinncy is always one of the most physical teams in the nation so ... I know your "scared to compete" with our soft bigs had to be tongue in cheek. :D

No question from the press to Coach L on why no attempt to get a waiver for Brooks? There may be a good reason but ... seems like a legit question that could/should be asked.
