    I agree regarding the decade of yikes.

    I'll just call what the hire of Payne was...a DE&I hire made by certain alumni that at the time had more power than an interim AD who was trying to get the permanent job.

    I think Heird now has the power to middle finger everyone, and make the decision on his own.

    With all of this said, I'd be surprised if Drew said yes, just because he doesn't strike me as someone who cares about making 8 mil instead of 4, and doesn't have the ego that a lot of coaches have that need to coach that Top 10ish program.

    Sounds like Drew said thanks, but no thanks and an extension with other perks will be announced in the coming days. Louisville moves on to the second picks...assuming May with outside chances of Cronin, Musselman.

    They can't really think Cronin is a good choice, can they? Really?
    We've come a long way since my bench seat at the Fieldhouse!

    I personally don't think he is a candidate, because his personality sucks and it won't fly here, but his anme keeps popping up. Maybe it's just him wanting to get out of LA.

    I definitely think Mick wants out of UCLA. I don’t think Mick will handle the cross country travel of the new Big Ten well. I actually can’t wait until he loses a conference away game next year and blames it on travel in the postgame press conference.

    The idiot AD at LBSU is taking credit for the team making the tourney after firing the coach (who is still coaching...as he says...for free.)

    AD said firing the coach motivated the team to win their conference tourney to make the dance.

    What an asshole.
    ...he went up late, and I was already up there.

    I wouldn't mind their president firing the AD to further motivate them.

    EDIT: Never mind, they already reached the end of the line.
