I was at GT 2002-2007. 2004 was just The. Coolest. Thing. Ever. I asked my boss at the time if I could have the afternoon off to attend the ceremony they had at AMC to honor the team. He said yes. I still remember that. I don't know enough about bball to know, in an educated and...

My gut hunch is that there just wasn't the money. I have absolutely no inside information, though, so fwiw.

I want in principle to completely agree with @LibertyTurns . In today's environment of constantly exploding brush fires on social media, national and local commentators, experts (self-styled and otherwise), and folks throwing random garbage out and social media giving it attention, credence and...

I think the answer to this is yes, but I cannot remember where or when I read it so tifwiw.

Only on DawgNation is a basketball search a 'hazzard'. How appropriate.

This. I would like to think that the reason CBG didn't get the assistant help he needed was $$$. Given the way this deal is structured, I'm hopeful the funding is now there to get CJP the support he needs.

This is where I will hope MBob has made it clear that he will be deeply and thoroughly involved in this process. If a short leash at the start enhances chances for success down the road, let's hope CJP sees the wisdom in it and is good with that.

All I have to say is that @Peacone36 has put his avatar back right, and all is well with the world. :) If: 1. We hire a few out-of-the-park HR assistants; 2. CJP has been told he needs to be able to listen and accept advice, and 3. There's not some insanely stupid buyout in his contract...

Makes sense. Thanks.

Can you elaborate on "minutes for players"?

Perhaps one of the conditions of his employment was that he will listen to mentors and qualified assistants? The more I read, the more enthusiastic I am becoming about him. Especially if we got some $ from Memphis that can go to first-rate assistants, this is a fresh start for us, a fresh...

:ROFLMAO: spits coffee on phone :ROFLMAO:

Well, we all know you never want to be the guy after The Guy (Calipari in this case). I'm game to support him and see what he can do on his own, with his own gig, and no legacy expectations hanging over him. Welcome to Josh!

Anyone know any other Memphis fans who'd come on here and answer that? It's a good question.

I'm getting the feeling that the national media views us like a service academy, and thinks that someone almost militarily straight-edged will fit well here. Not so sure that's the case. It's true to an extent and of course we don't want or need a complete scumbag -- but you gotta know when to...

If Memphis gets Marshall I will ... I will ... (keep the gun safe locked)

Dr. DesRoches is a totally awesome and completely cool guy. If you write him, you'd better be clear, lucid, factual and articulate. No BS if you want his attention and respect.

I will not fall for this again! I took the bait on the other thread, won't on this one. ;) One thing makes me very, very sad. Compare MGH's farewells to CBG with the Memphis player's remarks in the Commercial-Appeal. If this is a done deal, perhaps JP has grown and learned, and can do well...

I feel really stupid I fell for it. :confused:

This is not good. This is really not good. I am in favor of letting MBob do the job he was hired to do, professionally, quietly, and legally. But in today's world of instantaneous social communication, we all know perception is reality. If we want our new guy, whoever it is, to have a prayer...
