  • Nevada had an NET of 23
    who was ranked any higher that got snubbed?
    I think the best NET that got snubbed was NC State at 33


    btw- Musselman had 3 talented DI transfers coming into Nevada - so will they now switch to Arkansas?

      Here is an interesting twist.... Former Bradley assistant under Jim Molinari Duane Broussard, was fired by UCLA at the end of their season. Then a couple days ago he was hired as an assistant under Jamie Dixon at TCU. But now Jamie Dixon has emerged as a frontrunner for the UCLA job-

      So if UCLA does hire Dixon away from TCU, it seems unlikely Broussard will stay at TCU. But will UCLA allow Dixon to bring Broussard with him as an assistant there, considering they just fired him? That will be interesting to see.

      Also, it was reported earlier today that Arkansas was prepared to offer their head coaching job to Nevada's Eric Musselman. However, there has been no announcement yet. Musselman was reportedly in Fayetteville. Arkansas to interview with the Arkansas AD, and Arkansas had called a press conference for this afternoon, but then called it off. Apparently Musselman was offered the job, but nothing was agreed on, and Musselman returned to Nevada. Who knows what will happen next? Some rumors suggest he may be using the Arkansas offer to try to get Nevada to renegotiate his contract and boost his salary.
      And now there are rumors that Arkansas has another candidate as a backup, and it is none other than Steve Alford, who was run out of town at UCLA-

      This is all like a soap opera.

        Virginia Tech is paying Williams close to $3 million per year, and has a contract with him through 2023 which will increase to $3.3 million in the final year,
        But Texas A&M has lots of money from their membership in the SEC and all their conference's success in BCS football, and will be able to pay more than Virginia Tech can afford.

        The question is whether Buzz Williams wants to return to Texas A&M for the bigger money or is he happy at Virginia Tech?
        Williams is a Texas native who has plenty of recruiting connections in Texas. He was also an assistant coach at Texas A&M under Billy Gillispie from 2004-2006.

        There are now reports that Texas A&M will officially announce the hiring of Virginia Tech's Buzz Williams on Thursday-

                      • Chris Mullin has been head coach at St. John's for 4 seasons, and he has not had a winning Big East season or made it to the NCAA or NIT yet. There are a lot of fans who want a change. But .....
                        2 days ago-
                        Why St. John's Reaffirmed Its Commitment To Coach Chris Mullin
                        https://www.forbes.com/sites/jppelzm.../#1abafee52229
                        And...
                        St. John's AD: 'Chris Mullin Is Our Head Coach,' Says Team Isn't Searching for Another
                        https://www.si.com/college-basketbal...hns-head-coach

                        And 1 day ago-
                        St. John's not looking to replace Chris Mullin as head coach, athletic director says
                        https://www.newsday.com/sports/colle...agg-1.29461433

                        But then tonight-
                        Chris Mullin to step down as coach of St. John’s
                        https://nypost.com/2019/04/08/chris-...h-of-st-johns/

                        If this happens, reports suggest the top choice to replace Mullin is Bobby Hurley of Arizona State (formerly head coach at Buffalo).

                          This would definitely be interesting. Other than going back home, I don't know why Hurley would leave ASU after the foundation has built. Also, I would guess its much easier to recruit to Arizona.
